The elf stared at Merlin for ahim "There's no need to worry The office already hasYou just need to worry about killing hiain?" Merlin asked

"Guide our friend here to the office" The elf ordered the other thief, who quickly accepted his duties
The thief turned to Merlin, who had just stood up from his chair, and asked him to follow
"Lead the way" Merlin said
The thief lead Merlin out of the tavern and into the slums, and before they entered the crowd of people in the main part of the city both of them pulled their hoods over their heads
The thief lead Merlin into a part of town he wasn't that familiar with, partially because it seemed to be the more fancy area in tohich he had no reason to visit up until this point After a few more turns, the roads quickly became less packed, as it seemed most people didn't have a reason to be here either
"Alright, we're here" The guide spoke
