" Zane knew about another relic? I shouldn't be that surprised, he could always get so obsessive."
" But what did Ivy mean when she said the Ro'meave relic?"
" I haven't a clue, I'm just as lost as you are."
" Alright, Garroth, calm down. Remember, we want to keep a low profile here, we don't want to get caught."
" Aphmau! Garroth!" They both jumped back as Alex appeared beside them." We've got a bit of an issue."
" Why? What happened!?"
" Well..." the freckled girl thought for a moment, trying how best to phrase what she was about to say "... As you both know, subtlety isn't exactly Katelyn's strong suit and, when we were trying to figure out how to best break out Lady Ro'meave, some things happened and..."
Katelyn's scream echoed through the previously silent night.
"...We kind of got found out."
As soon as Alex finished her statement, Katelyn ran behind a pillar, to where the other three were already gathered, in an attempt to hide from whoever was chasing her.
" Katelyn!"
" Well, funny running into you guys here."
" What happened Katelyn!? Alex mentioned something about some things happening during the breakout."
" I... may have... underestimated some factors during my investigation..."
" It sounds like you messed up."
Alex placed a hand on Garroths shoulder." We both did... Listen, Garroth, I'm so sorry about your mother, we'll go back as soon as the coast is clear, and-"
" Alex, we don't have enough time. Garroth, I'm sorry, but we have to leave."
" What!? But we can't! My moth-"
" It's not safe for us anymore! We have to go, we'll come back for her later."
Just as Aphmau finished speaking, they heard one of the guards from earlier in the prison speak nearby.
" I think she might've gone this way bro!"
" Garroth, I'm so sorry, but if we don't go now we may never get a chance to get her out again. We have to go! Please, you can trust me!"
" Aphmau, I told Lady Ro'meave-"
" No, Alex, she's right, let's go."
" Come on."

" So let's see... from what Amber tells me, you guys had a rough time during your night on the town. Care to fill me in on the details?"
Aphmau sighed." We hit some unexpected roadblocks while we were there, and as a result, we didn't get the information that we were looking for."
" And you then got stuck in O'khasis for the night." The boss finished for her." Heh, amateurs... I'll give you credit, good job staying hidden through the night."
Garroth spoke up." Thanks!"
" I wasn't talking to you."
" You should at least give him more credit than that," Alex gave the boss her best impression of a glare." If it weren't for him we'd probably be in the custody of the Tu'la guards right now."
