"Assuming it works like the other things stitched to the cloth, it should turn into a real window. That would be some pretty strong magic." Ravenalonna says, clearly impressed..
"How can we know where the window goes? What if it leads to somewhere worse?"
"Maybe our new friend can draw us a map so we can find an exterior wall to try it on?" Cyrus suggests as he begins to empty the liquid from the bottles.
She looks at Ravan a bit hopefully before looking back at Cyrus, "He said he's new here though....so, he may not be very useful for much longer."
The guard simply replied, "Were you not paying attention when you were brought here? The outside walls are right up against the cliff edge."
"It's a little difficult to pay attention to where you are being dragged when you've been beaten about the head," Ruedo chides.
Making a somewhat snarling face she looks at the young snack...I mean guard, "Ya know...being a smart ass isn't helping your case any."
Cyrus grabs the guard and lifts him off the ground. "I was asking about getting out of the current building into the courtyard. You don't seem to be of any help at all, then perhaps we should just kill you now?" he asks.
Eri looks at Cyrus with a surprised expression on her face. She didn't think the old looking man had that much strength in him. She still wasn't sure if he was really a pirate or not though. As Cyrus threatens the younger man her look of surprise turns into a smile, and she gets a sort of excited look on her face as though she expects to get a treat at any moment.
Looking from the guard back to Cyrus she waits to see if the guard will have anything useful at all to say. If not....she wondered if Ravan would let her play with him. He was already scared half out of his mind, she just wanted to feel someone's blood on her again and maybe have a bit of a snack? She then looks from Cyrus to Ravan and awaits the outcome. She hoped they didn't spend too much time bickering over what to do with him.
Eri tries to get control over her lust for blood as Cyrus threatens the guard. Taking a step back from them she looks up at Ravan with a hopeful expression, "I really don't think he'll do us much more good. He's just slowin' us down now...dontcha think so?"
Grumblejack just grabbed the tied up guards head with on hand and twisted. After the very distinctive *snap* of the guards neck, he said, "Boring talking. We leave now."
She crosses her arms and pouts a bit. Her disappointment in not getting to have her own fun with the guard apparent she looks around, "Fine, then let's get out of here. Anyone have any idea how to get the Hells outta here?" She asks as she scowls slightly.
"Follow wolf lady nose, that my idea." The Ogre suggests.
"Ah, well that solves that problem." Cyrus says as the corpse falls to the floor.
He nods at the Ogres suggestion. "Can you try sniffing out some fresh air and let's get the hells out of here."
She sighs as she rolls her eyes, "Fine....I guess I can try. There's just a lot of smells here though. I'll just go ahead and change in case we run into trouble."
Changing to her more bestial form she starts sniffing the air to try and find an odor that she can associate with the outdoors and freedom.
She indicates the direction of the door at the end of the hall, "Exit that way....and maybe fresh food."
Frowning as the ogre snaps her pet's neck, Ravanalonna considers and remains silent. She'd be able to put that brutish violence to use later.
"Good work Eri. Shall we?" she asks looking at the men.
She just shrugs and gestures for the pirate to go first, "Age before beauty." She says in a teasing tone before snickering quietly.
"So you're going to be waiting a while then?" Cyrus jabs taking the lead once again. "Food or freedom?" he asks.
She sticks her tongue out at him before rolling her eyes, "Oh shut up...." She says more clearly as she becomes used to speaking in her bestial form. Considering his question for a moment she says, "Why not take both if we can? We should probably see what's actually behind the door first."
Ruedo keeps silent, simply following the others.
Caliban goes through the door again to scout ahead.
Caliban takes a look around the room before heading back.
Seeing nothing of interest, he walks through the door. "It's a dining room. I didn't see anything else interesting in there."
She stands there for a minute, "Well...should be safe to go in then. This is where I smelled the outside...so there has to be a way out of here somewhere around there."
"Perhaps this leads to a kitchen, which would need access to the outside to get supplies in easily." Ravanalonna suggest.
She shrugs as she steps forward and checks the door to see if it's locked.
The door opens up to reveal the room that Caliban scouted. A faint hint of food could be smelled coming from the door on the left as you entered, accompanied by a barely audible snoring from behind the right door.
Cyrus makes his way to the door on the right, checking it for a lock before he peers inside.
She uses her nose to try and determine which way would most likely lead to their freedom.
Given the snoring, Ravanalonna readies herself for action should the fool awaken.
The door wasn't locked, allowing Cyrus to quietly open it and see the next room.
Her curiosity getting the better of her, Eri goes to the door opposite of Cyrus and checks it to see if it's locked.
Cyrus signals with his fingers indicating the number of guards in the room. He takes care of the first guard with a well placed blow to the windpipe.
Seeming to have gotten bored with standing around, as he turns to signal the others, Cyrus sees Eri as she tests the other door to see if it's open.
Looking to Ruedo, Ravanalonna whispers,
Cyrus could tell from his limited experience that the guard was dead, while the other slept.
Looking over her shoulder at the others, she decides to take a peek in the other room. She opens the door a crack and takes a look inside.
Ruedo jerks his head at Caliban.
The phantom creeps into the room and crushes the remaining guard's chest with a heavy slam.
;
As Caliban slammed down on the unconscious guards chest, he didn't quite kill him. The guard awakened, eyes wide in horror and unable to scream due to a lack of air in his lungs.
Looking over her shoulder again she gives the others a wicked grin as she holds up two of her own fingers.
"Persistent bastard," Caliban mutters, slamming down again.
; ;
Despite the second pummeling, the guard's heart still beat.
Eri walks into the kitchen like she belongs there, "What's for dinner? She asks as she licks her lips.
