I'm seated all by myself now. In the midst of the tall grasses and the painful biting ants that crawl in the dirt.
I can feel the wind billowing softly on my skin and the waving scent of the grasses waft through to my nostrils.
Everything is serene. Or at least I think so.
Currently I'm blind and deaf, unable to see any bit of my surroundings but the trade-off is far better.
Yes, far better.
Seeing through the eyes and hearing through the ears of my familiar, the snake is boundlessly useful. Especially seeing as the entire city is on high alert, everyone is on some look out for a Mage of wearing civilian clothing and bound to coming in from the North with a bounty of weapons.
The Mayor of the city is quite ruthless when it comes to information gathering it seems. The guards have all the details of the operation that was going on, as well as all the names of the participants.
