Douglas nodded and quickly followed as they all began to run.  Darkness was between many of the trees and they ran through it, from shadow to shadow, trying to stay out of sight.  Behind him, he could hear nothing but the sounds of the forest, but he assumed that she must be right.  If there was a scouting unit, surely they would be good at disguising the sounds of their footsteps.<br/><br/>They ran on for ten minutes, before arriving at a wall of rock, which rose up some twenty feet in the air.  He was about to run around the rock, when Tobias simply stopped and started to feel around the rock face.  Though he did not know what the guard captain was doing, he halted and panted a bit.  He was in good shape, but unused to running with a full back on his back.  After a few moments, he heard a click and then a grinding sound.  A large portion of the cliff face moved back into the rock, creating a narrow passage with lead forward into the darkness.<br/><br/>Tobias simply moved into the darkness without light, but Douglas did not feel so confident.  He pulled his flashlight out of it's loop on his pack and turned it on.  Suddenly, a small pool of light appeared, illuminating the darkness of the passage.  He turned toward Rea and gestured at the opening.  "After you."
