They had two noises coming from somewhere deep within the tunnels. The first had sounded almost like a gunshot while the second had sounded like an explosion.

"Sounds like we are not the only people down here. Do you think they are far away?"

The Breton girl nodded. "Sound has a way to trick your ears, especially when it is echoing among these tunnels. My guess is that they must have taken a path through the catacombs, but that is a dark and foul place. I dare not travel there, especially not if I got you to look after."

Her reply made him feel weak, but not insignificant. "How much further is there?"

She sighed and stroke one of the moist walls. "Pretty soon, you will be able to see light. Do not follow it! Those are merely reflections cast from somewhere afar. Hold to my path and I will get you out of here, and from there on we will meet up with Wraith in Shademist."

Valkyrie had also heard the gunshot and the explosion. She first wondered if the sounds were connected to Wraith somehow, but after overhearing the Breton's conversation with the Imperial, she reckoned that wasn't the case. There were probably other people who had been having the same idea as them; to walk beneath the earth in order to escape the city.

But she remained hidden in the shadows and kept following the pair. She couldn't leave them now. Especially not when she had heard their destination.

''Shademist... Somehow that name does sound familiar...''
