Asleod looked at the gathered people, checking things off his mental list.  Most people were now more or less ready to start their own part in the plan.<br/><br/>"Well, the Noble side of things seems rather well in hand at the moment.  There are a few days until the party, and you have a pretty good idea what you'll be doing.  This should leave plenty enough time to get some groundwork done, and get your preparations in order.  We have several safe houses already set up within the city, and I'll brief you on those before we leave.  I expect we'll mainly work out of the Stannox estate within the city, which I have 'appropriated' for our use here from old Lord Stannox.  At least, that's where Belle and her retinue will officially reside while within the city."<br/><br/>He then swung his gaze over to the Underground dwellers.<br/><br/>"As for the rest of us, we can make use of the rest of the hideouts, or our own for that matter.  I expect we'll spend our time respectively planning the raid, I'll focus on diverting guards and general attention away from your location when you get underway, but you'll want to familiarize yourselves with the maps of the place, and draw up your own plans."<br/><br/>Finally, he walked over to Alexander, laying his hand on the other man's shoulder and giving him a reassuring squeeze.<br/><br/>"You can go along with the rest when they go underground, or you can come with me to work some distractions.  Or you can work your contacts and get cracking on our supply lines and setting up credit for selling our future loot.  Of all folks gathered here, your role is one of the most crucial.  Without a steady supply line and way to pawn off our loot, we'll choke in weeks."<br/><br/>After giving his speeches, Asleod walked over to the bar counter, returning his mug there and sitting down.  Most of the things he felt important at this first meeting were now decided, and as such he expected things to wrap up fairly soon.<br/>
