Atma listened to what Ayl said about the spiders and the army. Ayl was more than likely right than not and refusing to take any action now would likely cause unnecessary grief later. An army with enough demons would be able to overwhelm any resistance that could be put up. Atma sighed and took a deep breath as Ayl finished talking, "Well, I'm actually a better scout than I am a straight up fighter," he told the others. "If you can't tell, my weapons are much more effective when I have surprise on my side. And this daggertail can't get through armor as well as that axe of Sam's could. But it can hold something in place so that others can smash it pulp." He took a moment and thought a little bit longer. "You know it isn't exactly going to be a cake walk to get in there and look around the center. It would be better if we didn't have to fight all. Stirring things up in there would be like kicking a hornet's nest. So we need to have a plan."<br/><br/>Atma pulled out a map of the city from his back pocket and unfolded it. The map was really worn out and the creases on the map had worn down to white. "We need to mark out our route in, at least 2 escape routes, and a place to rendezvous in case something happens. We don't want to lose anyone to a lack of basic preparation you know." He lay down the map on the sidewalk and put a piece of rubble on each corner of it to hold it down. "Ayl do you know the exact destination you want us to reach? We can't just go waltzing in and expect to find the answer to all of our questions you know." He removed a kunai from his belt and started tracing routes to the center calling up mental maps to remember which ones had the most cover and which routes were the fastest out.
