"Well, I surely hope that this is everything you planned and more", said Nazir to Belgarath once they had reached the bottom. "I strongly doubt that they will follow us that way. It was tight enough as it was."

Kin'Jiro landed last of them with his worn leather boots giving of a dampened thud as he hit the ground.

"Great", said Belgarath. "Everyone made it. Now, with a little climbing skills in the right place we might be able to avoid the 'long' way out. I have read that the thief who stole the Elder Scroll was foolish enough to use the catacombs on which the Imperial City is built upon. If I can just find the right chamber, and of course if we are lucky, there might be a way for us to cut the otherwise long way back to Rikki in half and make our way up to the second levels, which would be the sewers."

"Urgh", groaned Nazir. "Sometimes I hate being an assassin, you know? The sewers... My boots will be ruined..."

Belgarath snickered. "Lighten up! The false Emperor is dead and we have just fulfilled Rikki's, uhrm... I mean the Listener's dream!"

"Which dream was that?"

"To finally legalise the Brotherhood! No more will we have to creep around in the shadows. As long as we have got a contract, we will be able to kill out in the open."

"Really?" Nazir sounded intrigued, but then he smacked with his lips. "Doesn't sound like too much fun though. Part of what I like about being an assassin is mostly the all this secretive work in the shadows. But whatever the Listener says, I am bound and honoured to follow."

Kin'Jiro just nodded as usual.

"Right then", said Belgarath. "We should head through the eastern hallways, that will put us directly underneath the Market and the Elven Garden District."
