One of the men with the dogs spoke up after me. He brought up the same points I had pondered earlier, but assumed they would be voiced. It was good that someone else thought of it, because now I don't have to claim any responsibility for bringing it up. He may not understand now, but I feel certain he will realize the position being the one to say it puts him in. Its not even necessarily a negative thing yet. It may never be. It depends on what kind of person he is. And what kind of people these are. I still don't trust any of them... but having them trust eachother could be beneficial for all of us. Now surely the only person who will notice me leave may be the one who is speaking now, but even he may be distracted. I slip through my window, back into the shadow of my alley.

Climbing back to the top of the building, I hunt the skyline for a high place where I will be able to see much of the city. Choosing a high bell tower off of a church as my goal, I draw one of my swords and march off towards it, keeping an eye out for specific shops and vehicles... 

I would be back, I already had a good idea of how this meeting was gonna go. And I need to make sure that I plan for it. And take my advantages where i can find them.
