Jasra's senses are on high alert. Knowing they're this close, she unconsciously checks the daggers under her cloak and loosens them in their sheathes. She leans in with Garrett, straining to pick out what the voices are saying and to whom they might belong.

Ane is less interested in what they are saying, she is more interested in whether there are people in the pipe, or whether it sounds like they are staying at the other end, or whether they are just passing by on a patrol.

If they are stationed there she can try to use magic to put them to sleep, that way they don't attract attention and no one needs know anyone was ever here.

"… Yadwar said … he di'n't?! … and she … hahahaha … teach him to … well and he said … yeah but …" the voices echo in a garbled manner, it sounds like two or three bored people laughing it up.

Sounds like they are at the upper end of the pipe, and they're staying there.

"I guess we should head up this moderately large opening." Garrett will head that way keeping as quiet as possible.

Asha agrees with a silent nod. It looks like a straight path up the pipe, so she snuffs out her torch so the light doesn't foreshadow their approach, and then follows Garrett's lead, climbing as quietly as she can. She feels the excitement of the situation building in her body now, countering any lingering effects from Inki's, and wonders what they will need to deal with at the end of the pipe.

The square pipe is big enough for one person at a time to chimney up it. The walls are sticky/slick brick. Who follows Garrett and Asha, in what order?

"What do you see?" Ane asks quietly as her companions start to climb. "If we need to get past them I can try put them to sleep." When the others saw her create an illusion of a wall earlier in the alley she made that look effortless, but she does not sound/feel as confident about this spell.

It depends what they find up there. The chimney ascent is nothing for Ane's Levitation, but we can't all be crammed, in battery, into the head of the pipe unless there is space.

Jasra makes sure her gear is well situated and limbers her fingers and shoulders for the climb. She's done more difficult ones more times than she can count, and she can already visualize herself monkeying up the inside of the pipe, but the last thing she wants is for something important, noisy, or both, to fall out during her ascent.

She watches, waiting for a sign from the first ones up that it's time to go.

Garrett has done this kind of infiltration work in the past and feels right at home in the cramped pipe. He knows there is always a way in to where ever the job leads him. He will get to the top and pause and listen for the slightest sound for 5-10 minuets. The slightest sound could tip you off. A sneeze, cough, sigh, fart you just never know. You don't want to just go for it anything could be waiting for you.

sounds like Garrett, Asha, Jasra, Ane — Ane going last could make the SLEEP spell kinda hard to implement.
Garrett gets up to the top of the pipe, Asha a bit lower and Jasra below her. The pipe opens into the bottom of a trough, which has a cover over it about two feet above Garrett's head. There are four holes in the cover, about the right size for people to sit and do business. The trough smells pretty bad. It would be possible to squirm out through the holes in the cover.

The room beyond the holes is silent for now, and stays that way several minutes.

"Well I guess there is only one way out." Garrett will squeeze out and check the area.
Jan 24, 2025 3:16 pm
Holding her breath and trying not to be sick, Asha follows Garrett up through the trough into the room above. There must have been a cleaner way to do this, she thinks to herself with an expression of disgust. She would have complained out loud but she recognizes the need to be quiet now that they're inside the building.

Jas stifles a gag, and once it appears the coast is clear, follows the others through the butt holes in the cover. Not for the first time does she thank the gods for her slight frame.
Jan 25, 2025 6:07 am
Ane is not as slim as Jasra, but still has no trouble squeezing through the hole, the seat is cleaner than the pipe/tunnel they were in, but she still feels disgusting and finds herself looking around for the showers in a foolish desire to get clean. She is relieved to be in open space again, compared to the underground the rooms of the prison feel spacious, but she know this feeling is fleeting and soon she will be desperate to get outside again.

It would have been easy to put the guards to sleep from below, and Ane really wants to practice that sleep spell she found tucked into an old book. But it would have been suspicious for a group of guards to be sleeping in the lav.

"Well shall we see if we can find Ginsing? Keep any useful spells at the ready so we can keep an alarm from being raised."With that said Garrett will move to the exit of the room and get a look around.

There is a hallway outside the loo, going to left and right along a series of wooden doors with slots at the bottoms and small grilled windows at eye level. Each door has a padlock on it.

How well is it lit in here? Garrett will use what shadows he can in the hall to go to the doors and look for Ginsing.

Is Garrett tall enough to see through the windows in the doors?
The hallway is dim. There are four oil lamps set along the wall across from the cell doors. Each lamp is about twenty feet from the next, so there are lots of shadows.

You hear footsteps. And jingling keys.
Jan 25, 2025 10:47 pm
Garrett hearing the approaching footsteps will duck in and hide in the shadows. With his dark clothing and years of experience this should be no problem for Garrett. He thinks about lifting the keys but he has his locksmith tools. Wouldn't want the guard to miss the tell-tale jingle of the keys.
OOC:
He is 5'9"
