"I totally did not get it. I have a feeling that you are up to something. And I am scared." Zephyr announced.

"You do not have to worry about it. Let us go to the Covert first." Char shooed off farther discussion.

"We can not use the tunnel to Milieu this time. It will be crowded. We will get caught. We will have to take the path to a room. Jus below us, there is a room. We will have to get out of there like people does conventionally. Merge into the crowd and act as normal as possible. We shouldn't get caught. Act like we are on our way to Supplies. Camera shouldn't find us interesting. It is almost impossible to hide from them but we can still try and not catch attention. It works at 360 degree. That gives us 5 and a quarter degree area of escape. We will disappear from the crowd to the Supplies Store. There is a tunnel that opens into the Covert. We will escape through it. But the original problem is the people. Don't let them recognize you."

"Okay. But why?"

"Oh genius! The Castle has sent out your images so that the people can find you and report you. You were the first one, maybe, in the history of Styx to break out of the Dungeon. You tricked the whole Castle to open up a cell and let go of a prisoner sentenced to death. Thanks to the Shield in your android system otherwise they would have found that the culprit is, again, you. You could have earned additional imprisonment or death by poison." Zephyr retorted.

"Then there is no way I will make it till the Covert alive. Is there another way, a more secret one?" Char tried.

"There is no other way. Just pull your cheeks in, purse your lips and frown a bit. You will look a bit different. Just act normal and you will be safe. Trust me. Now come on." Zephyr cooed.
