Águila, for her part, had proposed to start a fire -- or at least create the appearance of one using smoke-bombs -- and thereby ensure that the storehouse would be evacuated while the heist was completed. This, at least, offered some semblance of legitimacy, but Ebonshield was certain that any sudden fire would be treated as suspicious, and the place would be searched. Then the loss would be discovered, and there would not be such ease to dismiss the item in question for being simply misplaced, or otherwise accidentally unaccounted-for. She had pointed out the flaws in those two paths -- the path of the assassin and the path of the arsonist -- and how they were not generally appropriate to merely steal a thing. No, it was the path of the conspirator, and of the thief, which the two must tread.
