[I'll let Ghost's pose determine his reaction to Sword... ]<br/><br/>As Sword slows, the leader of the thugs run by.  His henchmen starts swiming out towards the sea in the mire below.<br/><br/>Ghost saunters up (since that is the quickest path to the hotel) and there is no one else in the alley, although plenty are still watching from the marketplace.<br/><br/>In the market place.. everyone is quite aggitated.  Those who are obvious tourists to the district are quickly making their way out of the market to the south.  One of the vendors is gathering up his things to close shop.<br/><br/>Princess suddenly notices (passing her perception roll) two people who are talking rather conspiratoraly and nodding towards the alley where Ghost can be seen walking.  They nod, then part..one walking to the edge of the market to keep a secretive eye on Ghost.. the other heading back to the west, towards the warehouses.
