As we get closer to Aisenburg, Ysana disguises us once more.
"I'm running low on energy, but I should be good for the rest of the day. After some rest, I can disguise you for a bit longer, but let's just hope that we'll be heading out soon." She tells us.
Once we get into town, we head over to the stables where a woman takes the camel and wagon back, and hands us a few gold pieces in exchange for returning them.
After a bit of walking around, we find that Roanne has sent some guards here, and they're out looking for us. There are also some wanted posters every now and then.
"Still some posters up about Brokk. I wonder if he managed to get out of Asios." I mutter.
"Even if he is still in Asios, he won't be easy to find. He's smart, so he'll give those guards a run for their money." Heroth tells me.
I have faith in him, but I'm still worried. Vinill won't give up while he's still alive.
"Let's just keep moving." Ysana says, grabbing my hand. "I can't keep this up for much longer."
"Should we look for Tzeeru, or should we just go get a room?" I ask.
"We can look around for another hour or two, I think, but then we better call it a night." She says.
"Any idea where they could be?" Emma asks.
"Well, the docks are probably a good bet." I tell her.
Considering the fact that they came here on a boat, everyone agrees that the docks would be the best place to start. We head down, and it doesn't take long for us to see Tzeeru's boat. Nobody seems to be working there right now, so we head into town to find them.
As we wander around, a group of guards asks us if we've seen any of the wanted criminals. We swear that we haven't, and they apologize for bothering us.
"These are dangerous criminals, alright? Just keep an eye out for them." They tell us, as they start looking around for other commoners to harass. They see a man across the street, and start towards him.
Before they leave, though, one of them hesitates.
"Young woman? What is going on with your hand?"
I look over at Ysana's hand, which seems to be glowing with a dull green light.
"I have no idea... I've never seen this shit before." She answers.
"Hey guys, you might wanna give me a hand with this. Err, pardon the pun."
Ysana rolls her eyes.
Ysana opens her mouth to say something, but before she can, it seems like her magic totally disappears. Her hand stops glowing, and our disguises drop.
"It's the criminals!" The guard gasps. "Stop them!"
Heroth is fast, and before that guard can even finish his sentence, has already pulled out a dagger, and lunged at him. He slits the guards throat, and the other three guards pull out their own swords.
"More guards will be here in any moment, now!" One warns us loudly. "If you comply with us, this will go much smoother."
"We don't want to kill you." I warn them. "You guys can all go back to your families! If you continue trying to fight, though, we will be forced to take action!"
"How dare you threaten a guard!"
"How dare you threaten your queen!"
"You are not our queen! You are a treacherous witch-fucker!"
