Getting out (1)

June leaned in close, speaking barely above a whisper. "What do you want to do? This city is on high alert after that attack."

Erik considered for a moment. "I still need to enter Caelora. I'm certain if these mercenaries are after us, something must have happened to Noah and the others. We should try to make contact."

June looked shocked. "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"I'm sure," Erik said. "The only hard part will be to get out of this building."

June didn't like the idea, but he trusted Erik's judgment. "Alright, if you think we can do this, then I'm on board. But how do we get out of here unnoticed?"

Erik weighed their options. His Instability brain crystal power afforded him certain advantages, just as June's ability to shapeshift offered its own set of tactical benefits.

Yet, the reality of their situation was undeniable. They were likely under close surveillance in this place.
