Zealots and Demons, Turn 76: Ejected from PrisonAsk Fleur, wait around for Aegnor and Kael to appear.
she asked, trying to divert attention away from her mistake...nonchalantly.
stopping looking around and instead distractedly staring at the sky rather than any passersby.

"Another? 'Zere was only 'ze one to my knowledge. It took me quite some time to find you, much less Monsieur Aegnor and Monsieur Kael. As for 'ze getting split, I was in a bad position and had to run or we all would 'ave been laying in a gutter somewhere." she responds as you wait. You wonder what is taking them so long.
[2] Fleur eyes you strangely.
"No, I do not wear perfume. It does not serve any purpose in either of my lines of work. Why are you so interested?"[1] You look up at the sky and see the dark clouds. Of course it's too cold to rain but you forget that in your assessment, as it is still the middle of Spring in your mind, however, it never rains at this high of an altitude. As soon as you say it, a giant snowflake lands on your head. That didn't take long. When you say Fleur smells nice she just looks at you as if trying to determine whether or not the wild magic has affected you in some way.

"That IS who I was working for, no sense in hiding it." he says. You see something flare up in his eyes for a moment before dying back down, reminding you that you're dealing with someone whose ancestors had been corrupted by the demons at some point.
"And why, because they paid me well to get close to their stuff and figure out how it worked and then sketch the designs down."[4] The two guards make it down the stairs and look around, and then at the chest, and then listen to your explanation. You are certain they are going to drag you off the whole time you're speaking, but then as you finish, one of them nods, somewhat strangely a bulky human female. You're not used to seeing them in Zealot's Army yet. "
Guess those requests finally got through. You have to tell me now though, how did they use that Tarot deck, I've been waiting for a month to deliver that scumbag to Bastion's lock-up."
You straighten your robes out, before saying. "My findings will be in the report, I must think further on them to make sure I understand everything I've seen."
"
Yeah yeah, sometimes these rules seem excessive, but I know they're necessary. Well, you and your friend should be leaving then, I'll escort you out." she says, the other guard continuing on the patrol now. You try to come up with some reason to protest, but you really can't, not after that lie you told that just saved your bacon.
She goes and grabs Kael as well before escorting you completely out of the building. You see Fleur and everyone else waiting for you outside. You have just a moment to discuss your plan of action with Kael before Fleur can overhear you.
