Cassidy peeks out around the rocks to eye the archers with a soft hum. "I would prefer to avoid water, but if we feel like that's the best option, then so be it. I rather like the idea of trying to find a window, but... I can fly with my math, just about, so I'm not sure how many of you would be able to follow."

Hartford looks around, shuffling his big feet. "I'm not really good at being quiet," he confesses, "maybe I should cause a diversion?"

Hartford looks around, shuffling his big feet. "I'm not really good at being quiet," he confesses, "maybe I should cause a diversion?" The big stag peers around the corner and sees the open door. "I might be able to get in through that door and make a lot of noise, if you like!" he offers.

"-I- can't fly, so we'd have to split up, and I'm not keen on that." He somehow manages to bob his head like he's nodding off, even as he's speaking clearly as being wide awake. "Not that I can't handle myself, but 'cuz Angus'd never let me hear the end of it if I let the rookie get injured on our first assignment together... even if it is coincidence we both picked up this gig from the Freeswords and not official Lightbringer business, heh." Rainer uncrosses his legs and sits up when Hartford lays out his idea. "Nothing against the plan, chief, but what if they start holding blades to the kids' necks soon as they hear a fuss, just to be safe? Y'gotta do better than running in screamin' and flailin' like the Old Ones've taken you over."

Siyu gives a gentle little suck of breath, "No I don't do mathmagic, I can't fly, I'd have to scale it with rope and hook if anything." he nods his head some as he looks up at the rock face, "Does seem like a clear enterance though, we'll have to take the archers down quietly though" He glances at Hartford, "No we don't want to raise any alarms. There's children at stake after all" He looks at Rainer, "You can't climb?" he inquires, "I mean with rope and claw?" he asks.

Cassidy raises her brow under her mask, looking at Rainer. "Me? This isn't my first assignment, and I'm still your superior, yes. So mind the 'rookie' stuff, eh?" she remarks with a little snickers. "And I hope you can climb. That would be an acceptable alternative. I just really do not like getting my bow and arrows wet. I have rope that I could lower down from a window if we found one for me to get into."

Hartford nods at Rainer and Siyu's assessments. "Oh, yeah," he says, wide ears flopping back in shame, "I didn't think of that." Making decisions for yourself was hard! "I could probably climb a wall with a rope," he says, flexing his bulky arms, "I'm pretty strong and stuff." The deer shakes himself a little, loosening up for a quick bout of physical action! "Just say the word and I'll be ready!" he grins.

Rainer murmurs a "sir yes sir" with eyebrows raised high as they may go, casting his gaze towards Siyu and Hartford with an amused smirk. He gets up to a crouch and scoots over to Cassidy's side to get a peek at the place for himself, finally indicating the recently abandoned tower. "We could get up right there, just have to slip up close while they're not looking. Long as you brought enough rope for the task, we're good to go, right?"

Siyu nods his head some, "Well I think going up the rope would be best. I can be as quiet as I can, and get up there along with the rest of you. I think that's our best play, up the side, silence the guards, find the kids..."

Hartford looks at the high wall, and at the thin climbing rope. The big deer's shoulders slump as he realizes that he will be more of a hindrance than help on this mission. "Listen," he says, "You get those poor kids outta there for me, alright?" He waves a meaty hand to indicate his enormous frame. "No way I'm getting in and out of there all quiet like," he says, "I'll be waiting for you here when you get back. Someone will have to carry you and the kids back to Firmament. Right?" He flexes his brawny arms for emphasis, then frowns, "You all be careful in there," he says, finding a spot to sit and wait where he can see the gate.

Moving at a decent, but careful pace, a cloaked and hooded figure is moving towards the location mentioned in the notice. He'd made sure his blade and pistol were loose but not falling out of their sheaths, talents and skills not overly lost from the change from urban to forest. Just less capable. Glein figured this would work towards earning him some respectable reputation, something to build off of in Firmament later. For now, it was a job, and something to be done.

Sliding around a tree, he spots the group near the front of the castle, one that definitely looks like it'd seen better days, he does a quick look over. He recognized some of those present, if only just, and figured it was safe to move up to them, without causing trouble for those ahead. Making sure to make enough noise that those waiting to move on teh castle could hear him, but not so loud as to be obvious to the guards above, Glein settles into place. "Seems I was almost late to the task."

Hoshek seems to appear from behind Glein his fangs glistening as he approached. His poisoned dagger was away, and his oiled leather armor barely whispered as he walked. "I trust you have already found a way in?" he asks, his more assassin-like tendancies showing in the form of his daggers and throwing knives loose in their holsters, and his pistol hidden away for when he needs to abandond stealth

Cassidy eyes one of the windows higher up on the castle and nods, checking to make sure she still has her rope. "I believe so, yes. Give me just a moment and wish me luck." Skirting out froma round the rock and making her way up close to the castle, the small masked fennec sets her sight on the open window and kicks off, using her airmath to take her up towards the window.

Cassidy finds a decently large, open window that the fennec has no problems just entering. It's the window to a pillaged storeroom too, only broken weapons and damaged armor lying around, with no bandit patrol anywhere nearby. One of the archers just happens to be facing Cassidy's direction during her short flight, though. He blinks, his guard raised a little bit now, nocking an arrow and keeping on high alert, pacing a little bit slower. His companions notice his alert and start watching the same area too. Seems they will need to be taken out.

Rainer turns his head with a bit of a start when a voice comes from behind, and he eyeballs Glein and Hoshek up and down like he's not certain about their intentions. Still, in the end, Cassidy's taking to the sky, so he only remarks, "A couple minutes more and you would've been stuck keepin' that guy company." A thumb jerked to the musclebound deer, accompanied by a playful wink, and when he turns back to watching the guard he notes their cautious postures. "Shoot, did they see her? ...They'd be raising all kinds of fuss if they were sure, I guess, but how do -we- get over there now?"

Siyu nods to the new arrivals, "All right. She's going to drop us down a rope when she finds one, and we'll all scale up. Remember this is a rescue mission primarly, the children are the first priority..." he looks up and waits, unaware of what's going on at the moment. The archers are moving? Oh dear...

Glein sighes. "Either we remove them, or distract them. One way or another, we'll need to deal with them before we can continue. My talents in distraction tent to rely more on, urban situations, I'm afraid I might not be of much help here." He says, looking between the two guards and the portion of the wall they're walking. Memorizing their routes, their patterns. Anything to give them an advantage in slipping by without setting off an alarm.

"You sure it wasn't just an owl, or a gop or anything?" One guard speaks to the other, though only Cassidy is in range to hear anyway, notifying her that she's been partially detected. "I saw someone /fly." The other flaps his hands and makes a serious sound, the two turning their backs towards the window now and patrolling back in the other direction.

Hoshek almost snarls, the anticipation of a kill making his blood run a tad bit hot. "Get me up there..." a slight shake of his arm exposed a dagger glistening with poison. "It shouldn't take long to kill one or two." he smirks licking a fang. This side of him... it needs to dissappear. He was going to be a family man soon.

Cassidy settles back, waiting to see if anything was about to come storming her way before reaching out for her rope, tossing one end of it out of the window for the others while she looked for something sturdy to secure it to before drawing her spiritmetal dagger.

"Well, look at that, it's up to Rainer to save the day. Go away for a year, nothing changes." He's grinning ear to ear the whole time he's mumbling to himself, surveying their immediate surroundings and the other beings until, finally, he reaches into his own pants and produces a small pouch that rattles with the sound of Crowns. A quick kiss to the pouch, either in parting or for luck, or both, a look to check the guards' eyes aren't turned their way, and he shoots up, whirls the pouch over his head and hurls it hard as he may in the opposite direction of their planned point of entry. "Nature'll never charge you Crowns, anyway!"

Siyu watches the rope come down the wall, and he nods his head and puts on a pair of gloves. All right, quick and quiet, hopefully this will go fast, getting the rest of the party up there and ready to fight and search for the kids. The rodent looking to get up the rope fast. "We're all in this together, and so far we've not rescued a single child, I'd avoid the cheer until we're back at the inn." he mummers. Since Rainer isn't going to hook up yet, the rodent will try his hand at getting up the rope quietly.

Shaking his head, Glein looked at Hoshek. "That'd be nearly as bad as storming the front door. We only see the two, we don't know how many more are up there. Let's just try and keep this quiet. They're walking slower, so we've more time to climb up while their backs are turned." He says, watching the rope slide down the wall. "If we can get to teh kids before the bandits are alerted, we'll have the advantage of surprise. They'll not expect us that deep in by then." Watching things happen, Glein ponders how well this will work, but doesn't linger on it, moving towards teh rope as well, keeping to the deeper shadows he can find along the way.

Hoshek follows after Glein, mumbling a tad bit, but otherwise complacent. He slides his dagger back in it's pouch, the black mamba quickly and silently snaking his way to the wall "Be quick about it." he hisses, watching rainer toss away a pouch of coins "Their attention won't be drawn away for long."

"D-Did you hear that? CROWN!" The guards laugh excitedly, thinking they heard a greedy merchant and then scooting over to the other side and peering, trying to look out for the 'unlucky soul' that they heard and shoot him and then loot the body after. The distraction might have been a little...too effective, even. Echoes of excited bandits that were hiding in the shadowy areas of the apparently unguarded main entrance sounding as they rush out in a miniature horde for their own share of merchant slaying! They find the bag of coin and then pursue into the forest. Leaving the climbing rope free for the climbers. The way out of the armory leads straight into a T-junction with two closed doors, lit torches lighting the stone hallways every other step. Loud, if isolated sounds of merriment echo from the large door on the left, while the dusty, cobweb door on the right looks like it hasn't been touched in ages. A sign hangs on the unused door, reading "HALL OF BLADES".

Cassidy eases open the door as she waits for the others to finish climbing, poking her head out and glancing around before withdrawing to wait. "Who wants to take up the lead? Not me, preferably. I'm already injured, and I'd like to avoid further injury, is possible."

Rainer brings up the rear, and once he's in reels the rope in behind him, leaving it piled up by the window in case they need to make a hasty exit. Nor does he give anyone else an opportunity to step up, marching ahead the moment Cassidy's asked for someone to take point, throwing a mock-salute her way as he trots right past into the hall, drawing his dual blades, creeping hither and tither until they come to junction, where he peeks back for opinions. "Hall of Blades? That sounds fun!"

Siyu gets up to the top of the rope and he rolls a bit to the side and pulls out his pistol and his dagger. He looks over to the others, "I could. I wouldnt' want to go first but I can..." he speaks in whispered tones, hearing the loud revlary and he looks over at the doors, "I say we leave them and just look for the kids, in and out, fast as we can." he nods slowly. He is armed, and his medical supplies are at his hip, hopefully enough to patch up any hurts the kids have and get them moving.

Glein smirks, his own blade drawn. Easing against teh corner, he listened to the merriment for a moment. "Let's check this 'Hall of Blades'. But be careful. The longer we can prevent them from being alerted, the better. I really don't do so well in a drawn out fight." He says, sliding over to teh door, and checking it over, seeing if there's any traps, if hte locks good, or heck, if the hinges are likely to creak when opened.

Hoshek hisses "No, that would be the worst idea. The rat is right. We need in and out. The less we run into the better." his dagger comes out though, his other hand remaining free to pull one of the many throwing knives along his armor "Do we know where they might be held in here?" he gives a look around his focused attention on listening, like a good assassin.

Cassidy flips her dagger around, holding it in a reverse grip as she nods. "Yes. Let's try to avoid bloodshed if we can. Let's get the kids and get out before they even know we were here, yeah? Or if we must kill, we do it quietly." She shrugs, having little else to add as she adjusts her mask and prepares to follow whoever decides to move first.

Rainer edges down the hall behind Glein, keeping himself, and his blades, facing the door in the opposite direction, from which the sounds of revelry are coming. When he gets there, though, and finds the spider-man still scrutinizing the door, he contorts his face once again like he just can't figure out what this guy's deal is. "Observe:" Thus he grabs the doorknob, gives it a twist, and pushes -- or pulls, whichever need be done -- the door open. "the miracle of modern convenience!"

Siyu just gapes, "Are you fucking daft." he hisses, "Three of us....'

The HALL OF BLADES. Turns out to be quite a disappointment. The door isn't booby trapped at all, and it just looks like a spiralling flight of stairs, heading down into the castle's dungeon/basement.

Siyu is behind the rest of the group then, since hte other two are forward, keeping an eye on the door behind us, waiting to see where we're going next. "If you're quite done shouting about modern convience, remember we're trying to be stealthy..."

Glein grimances as Rainer just yanks the door open. "I was making sure the bandits hadn't trapped it you fool." He hisses at Rainer, before sighing, and turning to the stairwell. "Let's, just keep moving, and I say we let mister loud bring up the rear, since he's obviously the most reckless of us right now." He states, before easing himself down the stairwell.

He is armed, and his medical supplies are at his hip, hopefully enough to patch up any hurts the kids have and get them moving. <br> <br>Glein smirks, his own blade drawn.  Easing against teh corner, he listened to the merriment for a moment.  "Let's check this 'Hall of Blades'.  But be careful.  The longer we can prevent them from being alerted, the better.  I really don't do so well in a drawn out fight."  He says, sliding over to teh door, and checking it over, seeing if there's any traps, if hte locks good, or heck, if the hinges are likely to creak when opened.<br> <br>Hoshek hisses "No, that would be the worst idea. The rat is right. We need in and out. The less we run into the better." his dagger comes out though, his other hand remaining free to pull one of the many throwing knives along his armor "Do we know where they might be held in here?" he gives a look around his focused attention on listening, like a good assassin.<br> <br>Cassidy flips her dagger around, holding it in a reverse grip as she nods. "Yes. Let's try to avoid bloodshed if we can. Let's get the kids and get out before they even know we were here, yeah? Or if we must kill, we do it quietly." She shrugs, having little else to add as she adjusts her mask and prepares to follow whoever decides to move first.<br> <br>Rainer edges down the hall behind Glein, keeping himself, and his blades, facing the door in the opposite direction, from which the sounds of revelry are coming. When he gets there, though, and finds the spider-man still scrutinizing the door, he contorts his face once again like he just can't figure out what this guy's deal is. "Observe:" Thus he grabs the doorknob, gives it a twist, and pushes -- or pulls, whichever need be done -- the door open. "the miracle of modern convenience!"<br> <br>Siyu just gapes, "Are you fucking daft." he hisses, "Three of us....'<br> <br>The HALL OF BLADES. Turns out to be quite a disappointment. The door isn't booby trapped at all, and it just looks like a spiralling flight of stairs, heading down into the castle's dungeon/basement.<br> <br>Siyu is behind the rest of the group then, since hte other two are forward, keeping an eye on the door behind us, waiting to see where we're going next. "If you're quite done shouting about modern convience, remember we're trying to be stealthy..."<br> <br>Glein grimances as Rainer just yanks the door open.  "I was making sure the bandits hadn't trapped it you fool."  He hisses at Rainer, before sighing, and turning to the stairwell.  "Let's, just keep moving, and I say we let mister loud bring up the rear, since he's obviously the most reckless of us right now." He states, before easing himself down the stairwell.
