She manages to shake the feeling, but as she does, she hears footsteps echoing from around the corner behind her.
Trista turn around to siblings. "Yes, he have a lot of luck to survive this, but I doubt he would managed to do it again. In short version, he tried to paid off debts of his lover, but Whoreson prefer to keept her." She said and get up. "If you guys are ready, let's go to our contact. I have enough of waiting."
"Tsk. It looks like we're being followed." Mirellia gave a hushed whisper, as she looks for a place to hide. And if she couldn't, she instead turns to another alley way, waiting to see what their pursuers were up to.
“We're ready.” Varrin assured the witcher. “Lead the way.” (My replies will be slow today due to something that came up and I need to take care of.)
As she calls out, Verena notes that Abigail and Ard have already entered the portal. The witcher's fingers dig into the bark of the tree as she's pulled.
At the Passiflora, a large an elegant brothel, the group quickly finds their contact. Boris, a balding middle aged man, greets them "Well, well... You're the new guys? I've planned out your route through the sewers." He gestures to a map. "It's going to be dangerous, though. Plenty o' monsters down there."
She tries to Hold onto The Tree with all her Strenght while forcing herself to walk step by step away from it.
The two of them find a cramped wardrobe, and manage to hide there, pressed together tightly. The footsteps thump outside, until they've passed by.
With her enhanced strength, she's able to slowly move away from the portal. After a few steps, the pull lessens slightly.
Once she was sure the pursuers were gone, Mirellia slowly exits the wardrobe. "Sorry about that, but I couldn't risk a fight breaking out while I'm ill equipped." She said as their breasts stop pressing against each other. She takes a look around to make sure no one else was following them, before leading Saria back to Gunther's estate to make sure the mage believed in the deal they made.
She moves out of its range and stares at it, unsure what She is dealing it and what She could do in this Situation.
Ard looked around the cellar, 'A cellar? I hope the owner will not be too furious we came in uninvited.' He looked for any stairs or ladders up, before he turned to Abigail, 'Let us see where we have ended up.'
Trista look at map of servers and tried to remember it with map of Novigrad. "Well, thank you. Do you know how many people know about these passage?" She asked and when get replide witcheress go to servers.
Saira manages to lead Mirellia back without too much issue, slipping out through a loading dock for the casino's supplies. Once they return to Gunther's, Saira talks with the mage about various magical implements, and Mirellia gets the impression that the man is satisfied.
As she escapes the pull, Verena looks back at the portal. The magical energy still tugs at her a little, making her medallion jiggle slightly, but for the most part, she's free to move as she pleases. The portal remains for several minutes, and eventually begins to slowly close, inch by inch.
Heading up a small flight of stairs, Abigail cracks open the door at the top, a sliver of light shining through. On the other end of the door, Ard sees bookshelves, and thinks he might be in a library or bookshop of some sort.
@moonblack "About the sewers in general? Plenty. There's all sorts of smugglers and gangers use the tunnels. The specific tunnels leading to the vault, though? No one knows 'bout them but me." He pats his dagger. "The architect had 'em built in secret, probably thinking that he'd do a heist some day. Unfortunately for him and his workers, though, I spotted them digging the tunnels. None of them made it to the surface." He grins.
Ard opened the door and stepped out of the stairway to the cellar, looking around the room, 'Anybody home?'
Trista rise eyebrown for that, but she didn't commented. No suprise, that kind of people get know information. "Alright, lead the way." She said, wanted to done this job as soon as possible.
