Princess Elara: whispers We must leave tonight, under the full moon. Can't stand this life anymore.
grabs ShadowHunter's arm and starts walking even faster We need to hurry, ShadowHunter. Time is running out.
I know hurries along with her
spots a tailor's shop up ahead There! We can get you some new clothes there. Let's move, ShadowHunter. Quick and quiet.
As they approach the tailor's shop, they hear footsteps behind them. They turn around to see a group of armed men, led by a gruff and menacing leader.
I whisper to you while running what are we gonna do now
grabs Mausopper's arm and pulls them into a nearby alley Stay quiet and stay close, ShadowHunter. We need to think fast.
I whisper what’s going on
pauses and looks at ShadowHunter with determination ShadowHunter, those men back there are bandits.
puts a finger to her lips, signaling for silence No need to apologize, ShadowHunter. We can't afford to draw attention to ourselves right now.
looks around the alley, assessing their options We need to find a way past those bandits without causing trouble.
takes a deep breath and speaks in a low voice ShadowHunter, I have an idea.
leans in closer, her eyes sparkling with determination We'll create a distraction, ShadowHunter. I'll create a diversion while you slip past the bandits unnoticed.
ok what will the distraction be
smirks mischievously I'll create a loud commotion, drawing their attention away from our escape route.
how are you gonna do that
reaches into her bag and pulls out a small vial I have a special concoction here, ShadowHunter. It's a mixture that, when thrown, releases a loud, ear-piercing noise.
so you gonna throw that to create a distraction
nods confidently That's the plan, ShadowHunter. I'll throw this vial to create chaos, and you'll make a run for it.
alright we watch the bandits closely
takes a step back, preparing to throw the vial Remember, ShadowHunter, trust me on this. We need to act quickly and smoothly.
they pay attention to the bandits who are distracted by something in the distance
whispers urgently Now's our chance, ShadowHunter. Throw the vial!
The vial shatters upon impact, releasing a deafening noise that engulfs the area in thick smoke. The bandits are momentarily incapacitated, giving Mausopper the opportunity to slip past them unnoticed.
I manage to sneak past the bandits and catch up with Elara
whispers urgently Hurry, ShadowHunter! We can't waste any more time. We need to find a safe place to regroup and come up with a plan.
we find a place to hide and catch our breath
gestures for Mausopper to crouch behind a nearby crate Stay low and stay quiet, ShadowHunter. We don't want anyone to find us until we're ready to move again.
I sit behind the crate looking at Elara
whispers cautiously We need to gather our thoughts and come up with a plan to get out of here safely. Can you handle it, ShadowHunter?
narrows her eyes, studying Mausopper's expression You must understand, ShadowHunter, our lives are at stake here. I need to know that I can trust you.
