Without a sound Sceth dashed forward, careful to avoid the pools of orange and yellow light that seemed to spread across the floor. Again he felt the gentle tug of the cape when it fluttered behind him, with a growl Sceth slashed away the fabric and left it behind to rest in an especially dark corner where it belonged. He could never truly understand his client's wishes, not like he cared one way or another as long as he was paid.
Moving with calculated diligence, Sceth counted off the doors as he passed them, each symbol one he had memorized from the map that his client provided him. The doors were expertly crafted and decorated in gold plates that were carved with multiple symbols and images along the upper ridge. Sceth paused before one in particular and grinned; he found it and with much less trouble than he suspected. His fingers tugged open the door and he slipped inside. Sceth closed it behind him and strode deeper within the dark chambers.
It was cleaner than what he had first came to expect, especially from a woman. Sceth had heard that they were rather messy creatures with the aptitude to simply throwing their possessions about. He did not have to weave through towers of frilly dresses or plush, overstuffed chairs that would have been placed around the fireplace. Odd.
A soft creak alerted Sceth to a person behind him though he did not whirl about as he normally would. Though his fingers were tempted to curl over the handle of the blade tucked into his narrow belt. "I not mean harm," Sceth said in rather poor Trillian, not liking the way his voice scraped over every word.
"I do not speak the language of those mountain men," a woman said in Yyelle, the language that Sceth most commonly used and pressed the tip of a blade to his throat. "Who are you, Assassin?"
