"He just knows I'm right!" Jinai beamed while Katahnia simply rolled her eyes. The two really looked like a pair, and might possibly pass for sisters on how closely they looked like one another, both with blonde hair, bangs and vibrant green eyes. They were about the same height as well, almost the same build, but their eyes told a different story, and their smiles were hardly the same.

"Well, I'd rther not waste any more time. Let's just take it slow. No need to give the guards a reason to follow us," Katahnia said.

"Then follow my lead. I doubt either of you have been in the city lately. Safe, discrete paths are hard to come by."

Conall said nothing in response to Jinai's initial comment, adopting an innocent look that seemed to say, "I have no idea what she's talking about. "

Any of the physical similarities in the two women that others might have perceived were now lost on him. The differences were as plain as day to him .

At Jinai's last comment, Conall smirked but didn't speak his mind. Had she forgotten where they'd been for the past few months? Perhaps the drugs in her system were still talking? He shook his head and followed behind , feeling slightly more anxious than he knew that he probably should have.

Conall wasn't wrong in his presumptions. It was hard for Jinai to think or care about anything or anyone outside of herself. But it seemed Jinai was more than willing to help. Whether it was because she felt like she owed them or not, or to simply aid them in hopes to move on with her life and all back on her ass with drugs....

No one could say for certain her alibi, but Katahnia was grateful for the help, and knew, despite their history, Jinai wasn't the sort to literally stab one in the back. They both worked for the same cause after all, even if Jinai's intentions and methods were like a mystery to Kat.

The outskirts, she knew, would take much longer to navigate than roads inside the city, but as Jinai predicated, it was less active and not as many people on the streets. Though most kept their eyes down if they were poor, and the rich normally had escorts- for even city life these days was not safe.

It was a pity for her to see how much of the city had been turned into something of a military state, and it appeared two new prisons had sprung up since her last visit. Even more flags of the Grand Duke's branding, crowned more buildings, and as they rounded a turn, Jinai swore and gestured for the other two to get back.

Katahnia did not hesitate to keep back, but the tension was maddening, since Jinai did not move for what seemed like an eternity. Eventually she turned back to the others.
"Quick, we need to go the other way. Seems the patrols have doubled since last week. If we can get to intersection before the bridge, we can probably go the long way, but that would put us on a thruway to first street."
And that street was a bit too busy for her liking.

"If we have to... we can get creative in our means of travel," Katahnia reminded. "There are plenty of buildings around, after all."

Jinai simply shot her a look.
"Not if you want to draw unwanted attention. The trick here is to blend in. If you don't look like trouble, no body bothers you- even if your face is printed all over the walls." And to make her point, she jerked her thumb at her very own wanted poster.

"I think they got your nose wrong, but other htan that.." Katahnia mused. "It really does look like you."

Jinai only smirked.
"Ass."

"Idling and speaking in hushed tones is suspicious," Conall pointed out with a light smirk.  Not long after that comment , the small party moved on, sticking to the route of Jinai's preference. Conall took the scenery in, wishing he could have felt surprised by it. However, past interactions with the new Grand Duke left him feeling that all of this was to be entirely suspected and he recalled a time in the past when he'd warned people against such things. If only his youth hadn't colored others' perceptions.  Few had listened, believing that Calent would deliver this land from darkness. Idly, the duke of Ardal pondered whether or not some of those doubters were now wishing they had heeded his warnings.  Conall turned his eyes to gaze upon the statue of one of the holy saints. If ever there was a time needed for divine intervention, now would have been it. But Ansgar remained silent. No miracle was to come. Was this his way of punishing his children for their sins?  For giving into fear and losing faith?

He remembered a time , a few years ago when Uthlyn had been full of light and life. As he gazed upon it now, strangely, it seemed even less welcoming than the frozen tundra he'd just left behind.

"How deep does your madness run, Calent?" He muttered softly, pondering who was more insane. Blaith or Calent? He felt more inclined to believe it was probably the latter. "God have mercy on Connlaoth." He took a moment to pray.

Unfortunately, even favored route seemed to present some roadblocks. Jinai suddenly stopped and backpedaled. Wisely, Conall retreated as well.  At the mention of 'getting creative' , his left eyebrow immediately shot up. He then chuckled at the exchange between Kinai and Katahnia . Wisely, he didn't add to the humorous exchange and brought the conversation back to the matter at hand,"  "Did you have any specific idea in mind?"

"There is a bridge and a series of shops not too far from this end. It's easier to blend in, but guards are everywhere. If we keep a low profile, and pretend to be browsing, they general leave people alone- even those who may look like a criminal on the wall. I think their eyes are only trained to seek out hesitation and outbursts, things that are obvious and leave the plain and ordinary relatively alone," Jinai explained. "Then again, it makes perfect sense. The soldier's are rather simple, after all, and the guards, not at all much different."
