*A Canifor of great importance has been captured by the Middle Mentia guards during a surprise raid. This rebellion faction has sent for help and that's where Ashnard and Hikari was recruited. The rebellion consisted mostly of beast men and rebelled against slavery, but their actions caught Middle Mentia's Attention in their last attack. And so one of their commanders were targeted and captured*

*Ashnard and Hikari would be informed that Ziek, their target, was held in a nearby village for the moment. They had to hurry to the location before he would be transported and and tortured for information. After a few says travel they would arrive at their destination. Standing right in front of the of the Prison entrance. The only clue they had to work with was that the entrance was located north. Their best option would be stealth for the time being, but luckily for them most guards we out doing other stuff. So a frontal attack wasn't impossible*

Mentia sure was a long way from Ashnard's common hunting grounds, yet an opportunity like that was not one he could easily pass up. He had a *Name* To preserve, after all; an infamy to spread as both scourge to Silnari and liberation to beastkin. And luckily- for himself, not so much for his foes- the renegade hound had accurate some new tools of the job. The wealth and status he'd amassed in recent years afforded him that much. 

Stygian scales covered his body from neck to heel; a semblance of armour, twisted and malformed as though by fell sorceries. Infused with runes that made it reflect no light but for an ominous crimson glimmer across his horns and no footwear to keep himself silent on his paws, Ashnard was truly like a shadow in the night- and for his enemies- a fiend, a mythical hellhound sent to ravage them with no remorse or mercy. Lightless black flames resonating from his fists only reinforced that assumption. Perhaps fear alone would be enough to deter the most weak-willed of enemies... If they get the chance to spot him at all. 

Of course, Ashnard still knew better than to rush head-first into the den of enemies. He gestured his ally for that mission as well to keep a low profile, at least for the time being. He bowed his posture and cautiously closed in toward the northeast side of the prison building. He stuck near the walls, both to avoid sentries from above and provide himself natural cover in the shade before he'd press an ear against the cold stone. Any sounds from inside would be easier to eavesdrop like that, and few can contest the keen senses of a canifor.

*An "Average Macen man" By the name of Magnus Faulkner had decided to take up the offer from Ashnard once more, arriving at the prison with their equipment at the ready.*

*"Magnus" Wasn't in it for a greater purpose like Ashnard was, but Hikari did want to aid the canifor's conquest against the Elves in any way they could, and sought to make amends of sorts after disappearing for so long.*

*Hikari followed their ally, sneaking alongside him.*

*The guards would not even sense anything wrong, but the villagers near Ashnard, did grow a little suspicious. His looks was to blame.*

*Ashnard would approach the north side and there would be a window for him to get a clear listen in.* "Heard that guy the others caught a week ago is going to be transported tomorrow, what a relieve. Would have though some rebels would have tried something a little better then what happened 5 days ago. Huh, bunch of cowards" *The reports match up with their target "Honestly, would rather have snuck in from the south" *One guard would say before being interrupted* "Good thing our champions are down there*

*Meanwhile on Hikari's side, he would hear a woman coming to offer some food to the two sitting in front and the heavily armed person would speak out* "Hah, seems this positions does have it's perks, glad I volunteered " *The woman and man would be talking for a bit while the other receptionist continued writing with irritation*
Ronald
*Eugh. It was just a man trying to get into a gal's pants. Nothing interesting.*

*...Hikari opted to continue waiting though. Although they didn't like the thought of harassing an innocent woman, they might have had to for the mission... Assuming she knew anything, an untrained type like her was almost sure to blurt something stupid out.*

Some weird looks from peasants were the least of Ashnard's worries now. After all, they'd know better than to try any more than that. What his attention was focused on would be the information these guards blurted out- most notably the south entrance being one of the riskier paths to take.

The window was definitely out of question for an entry spot with guards this close... But the roof, perhaps? With another gesture toward Hikari to follow, Ashnard hid from common sight and sought a spot where he could scale the prison wall. More often than not, small city guards did not expect an assault from unorthodox angles.
