The young man's eyes went wide at Eri's threat. He fell to his knees and continued begging for his life.
She sighs as the sound of his voice annoys her. Lowering herself to get in his face she says in a low menacing growl, "Shut yer mouth....your voice annoys me. Either shut it, or I silence you...forever."
"Let's start with how many guards are on duty today." Cyrus demands.
His eyes went even wider. While shutting his mouth, you're fairly certain this man was about to piss himself.
Narrowing her eyes at him she says, "Stop whimpering....and answer his questions." Looking up at Cyrus she shrugs, "Better?"
Looking at the Monk, the young man answered, "Ten total, although some are probably at the Sergeant's game."
She raises an eyebrow at Cyrus as if to say, Oh...so that's why his smell is down here?
"And where would we find him?" Cyrus continues his interrogation.
'So with the last two and him, we've got 7 left. Not bad.' Ravanalonna thinks with a smile.
She looks from the cowering man to Cyrus, "Back way out? Go while most guards are distracted?" She says, thinking that if enough of them are distracted at the game that it would make their escape easier and fewer people that they would have to go through.
Cyrus looks displeased with Eri's suggestion. "I thought you were hungry?"
She narrows her eyes and growls at him, "Escape now....eat later." She growls out as she thinks about how much easier it was to eat people if they didn't have weapons.
Gesturing over to the quivering mass of flesh she says, "Maybe this one show us way out while other guards busy, and I'll kill him quickly instead of slowly.....one breakable piece at a time."
"You do know that most people won't cooperate if you tell them you're going to kill them anyway right?" Cyrus questions.
"We still need supplies and I'd rather not leave anyone around who can form a search party, or send bounty hunters."
She just shrugs, "Sorry....your call." She grumbles more to herself than anything else. She thought they understood she didn't really think things out....but that should have been obvious by now.
"Are we done wasting time?" Ruedo asks Eri and Cyrus. He then turns to the guard. "We will let you go if you guide us to what we need. Sound good?"
He tries hard to hide the smirk that threatens to spread across his face.
She doesn't say anything else, but just huffs out a breath and waits to see what they're supposed to do now. If she wanted out of this place she had to try to listen to other people. She wasn't smart enough to get out on her own and she knew it.
"We are supposed to be on some sort of timeline yes? Being thorough is one thing, but not if sitting around increases out chances of being caught. If we aren't leaving now we should get on with it." Ravan chimes in.
"And where would we find him?" Cyrus continues his interrogation.
"I'm not sure really sure where it is. Like is said, I'm new here." The man said visibly trembling.
"Are we done wasting time?" Ruedo asks Eri and Cyrus. He then turns to the guard. "We will let you go if you guide us to what we need. Sound good?"
He tries hard to hide the smirk that threatens to spread across his face.
"If you let me live, then yes." The Guard says.

Ruedo arches an eyebrow in surprise. His will must be weakened. "Very well, take us to your supplies. If you try to lead us into a trap, your life will be forfeit. Cyrus, escort the man, please."
She doesn't say anything but snarls at the guard, giving him incentive to do as he's told and cooperate with those that obviously knew better than she did. Her poor empty stomach was just going to have to wait.
Making a brief gesture and whispering n incantation to herself,
Ravanalonna steps over to the trembling guard, gently caressing his cheek, leaning very close as she looks into his eyes, everything about her utterly intoxicating.
"Calm down baby, nobody's gonna hurt to if you help us. You trust me don't you?"
The young man seemed to calm down at Ravan's soothing words. He leads to you to a door a few paces away. ”This is the Sergeant’s Office, the supply room door is in there.”
"Shall we?" Ruedo asks the others.
She nods, anxious to get out of this place. Looking at them she says, "Who goes first?"
"That's my cue." Cyrus makes his way over to the Sergeant's room.
Cyrus grabs the picks and begins working on the lock.
With a fair amount of ease, the pirate unlocked the door. Upon opening it, the group sees a single desk cluttered with papers. Opposite the entrance, was another door, and across from the desk is yet another door.
She starts sniffing around again to try and figure out which one they should go through.
Gesturing to the door opposite the entrance she says, "Sergeant smell coming from that door. Supplies probably behind other door." She says a bit more quietly, not wanting to alert anyone to their presence just yet.
Eri goes to the door that she suspects has the supplies behind it, "Supplies in here. Want them before we open other door?" She says getting impatient with all the chatter and standing around.
Ruedo nods and sends Caliban through the door that Eri indicates.
Caliban passes through the door and looks around.
Caliban returns and informs the group of the room's contents. "It should be a jackpot to all you arsonists."
Cyrus makes his way to the storage room. "I think we can find a use for this." He says making no effort to hide his excitement.
Her eyes light up almost instantly, "Ohhh ohhh you guys take rations, we kill guards, and set this whole place on fire?! Right? Right?! Kill everything....." She growls out as the excitement shows plainly in the pitch of her tone as well as how quickly she's talking.
Ruedo merely shrugs. "We only have one bag."
"Sad but true," Caliban says with a hint of humor. "It would not do to have you running about with your hands full of food."
Eri leans over the guard they captured, "Where are more bags? Do you have a bag? If you help us I promise I won't eat you." She says with a wicked smile.
"We can shimmy a carrying sack out of the uniform cloth if need be."
"Dear, where would things like travel supplies be kept around here?" Ravanalonna asks, rubbing her new friend's shoulders.
