She was almost impressed at how easily this man of privilege cast aside all that was familiar to him. When he stepped out of the light to stand beside him, she let nothing show on her face, giving him a simple nod. Her soft leather boots made no sound on the cobblestones as she led him through the city. It was far from familiar to her, as she'd only been here a handful of occasions. She had always had a natural ability to keep her bearings. She could almost always tell which direction she was heading. She knew that the gate was along the western wall, far to the northern border. She knew that she had walked far to reach the area where she'd found the tavern and encountered such unexpected events.<br/><br/>It was just as well that the route she took might not have been the most commonly traveled route. They would have an easier time going unseen that way. With her business concluded, she had no further business in the city. Beyond that, there were many reasons why it would be foolish for her to remain in such a heavily populated city. She had no interest in the plans the man who was following her may have had. If he desired to remain in the city, he could very well do so on his own.<br/><br/>She moved slowly through the city. Careful to scan their surroundings for possible eavesdroppers or observers. From all she could see and esitimate, they had so far gone unseen. The gate was not far off when she stopped. It wouldn't do to pass them looking just the same as she had when she arrived. She had no interest in being stopped and accosted, as she was before. Pausing in the deep shadows under a thatched roof which hung over the side of a small shop, she peered around.<br/><br/>For the first time, she spoke to her companion is a silent whisper, "The gate is ahead. We will have to pass the guards. It is best we do so under a disguise. If we are remarkable enough to be remembered, then we will be in danger. You'll need a change of clothing if you want to go unnoticed. You are quite the sight."<br/><br/>She scanned the area, looking for something that would help them to change his appearances. In the pack she carried, she had enough with her to change her own look, but he had almost nothing with him from what she could see.
