CALIMPORT GAME

After you finish your meal you head down toward the docks. Will you borrow or "borrow" a boat?

You get in the boring little boat. It's a bit crowded but not going to sink, there's a decent amount of gunwale above the water and the harbor is calm.

The setting sunlight sparkles on the water, rose and gold. You wasted a while relaxing at Inki's. Big Zhad might be upset; he said this was an urgent task. You'll worry about that later. Jailbreaks are better at night, anyway.

With Ane directing you, even stoned out of her mind, there's little risk in rowing the boat along the wharfs to the other sabban. You clumsily secure it to a dock and clamber up out of it.

The dock is deserted, there are a few barrels and crates but no workers as it's dinner time and everyone's off work. You can see the lock-up looming up above the other buildings of the sabban, near the wall. Probably a few minutes to walk over there, but then you'll have to get up on the wall again if you want to use the main entrance that opens onto the top of the wall.

What do you do?

What about Garrett's background would help him to find an entry point?

Garret's cunning and knowledge of buildings guide him to …

a sewer grate in the middle of the plaza that lays at the foot of the lock up. Probably the city storm sewer also is the outlet for whatever foulness the guards and prisoners produce. And probably there is a route that way to enter the building unseen. Though it would be optimal to access the sewers via a less public opening, as this one is quite visible to passersby. At least the first two floors of the donjon do not have any windows overlooking the plaza.

Ane's perusal of the upper stories indicates there are numerous windows, too large to reasonably open onto prisoners' cells. They must be to the barracks rooms of the amlakkar. Probably not the way to go for a jailbreak?

There is of course the roof, but that's about the furthest in the building that you could possibly get from the basements where the prisoners are locked.
