The woman led the two to a normal looking house that overlooked the pier. She led them up a small flight of stairs to the front door. She then knocked three times rhythmically in a 3/4 beat, where a man covered in black all over except the eyes opened the door. Arocraes began to reach for his katana's handle instinctively again, only to remember it was stolen.
"This way" she said as she walked down a flight of stairs into the basement of the house. Surrounding the room where dozens of men donning the same clothing as the man who opened the door. Two men armed with cutlasses walked towards Arocraes and Tara, signaling the two to put their hands in the air. The woman walked into a separate room in the basement and came out with Arocraes' katana. "Now, tell me about this" she said to him, "What are these markings?"
"Wind spells" he replied, "But they were created so only I could use them." Arocraes dropped his hands ignoring the armed men before him, rolling up one of his sleeves revealing a tattooed arm with markings that were the same as were on the katana. "I can show you how it works if you hand the katana back to me" he cheekily added.
