//Played on: July 16 2025//

Escaping from the fight, [[characters:julian_dubiel|Julian]] asks if everyone made it out, as his partner's betrayal caught him off guard. His partner and a few others know about the plans for our Escape From The City. Reclaiming our things from Julian, we head through the sewers, attempting to move North, as we had originally intended to.

Passing through the sewers, we see many exsanguinated corpses, and eventually come upon a hole in the sewer brick, out of which firelight glows. [[characters:vira_de_cartier|Vira]] turns invisible, and goes up to the hole to look. A vampire(?) reads in the corner, with garnet coloured eyes, long curled silver hair, and prominent fangs, with many bite marks running up the length of their arms wearing robes. Passing by and failing to be stealthy, we attract the attention of the vampire, though in this case they do not appear to mean harm, and we continue on with them trailing behind a ways.

Further in the sewer, we hear a buzzing sound, Red Mozzies. The vampire following us is convinced by Vira to bring something to deal with them, bringing a bug spray, we make our way past, and find ourselves ending by a hidden bar. Vira and [[characters:mad_lockwood|Mad]] talk to those in the bar, and end up securing a ride for us across the ice lake, a powered sledge, with a sacrifice, left behind to appease the lake. The sacrifice will be someone who has an assassination contract against them, left asleep on the ice. The bartender immediately susses out who [[characters:caiden_fredrick_greycastle_hadler|Caiden]] is when he goes up to the bar to arrange accommodations. They have a room behind the bar with hammocks that we get free of charge.

Those who did not immediately go to sleep earned some free drinks by forming a band to perform on the small stage that sits in the corner of the establishment. (The Smuggler's Den)
