The sheer immensity of the height of the outer wall of the palace grounds was rather daunting, especially to one Who stood at the base and had to crane their neck to glimpse The top of such a structure. But for Celinny Windwood , the impossibility of climbing over it simply made her grin. Flexing her slender fingers within long black leather gloves, she slid a pair of climbing daggers from her belt, testing the weight of them in her palms for a brief moment, and then began the slow ascent of the brick edifice by slipping the blade of each knife into the grout between the stones and pulling herself up, balancing the tips of her boots against the same lines to keep her balance.

Celinny was a long lithe woman, with wiry muscles and a caramell complexion. Her hair was a deep black in color and usually hung to just between her shoulder blades in loose curls, but it was currently pulled back into a partial bun at the nape of her neck. Her cheekbones were high and proud, but were gentle and softened by rounded edges, as was her chin, complementing her heart shaped face. Set above a long nose that turned up very slightly at the end and below a set of slender arching eyebrows were A pair of almond shaped light blue eyes, A starburst of gold around the right pupil. Currently, these were widened with excitement, her full lips parted in an eager grin. Never before had one of her order dared to enter the palace grounds before this and the very idea had adrenaline pumping through her veins.

Reaching the top of the wall after several minutes had elapsed,The young woman paused for a moment to dig her daggers deeply into the stonework before reaching up to the top of the battlements. Gripping with her fingertips, Celinny pulled herself up just high enough to place the balls of her feet on the hilts of the blades, making sure her footing was stable before she hooked a length of corded rope up from where it had been slung over her shoulder and began to tie it securely around one of the brackets where a torch could be placed. As she was working, a tiny Chickedee fluttered down onto the top of the wall, hopping a few inches closer and tilting its head quickly from side to side and blinking beady black eyes at the woman. Celinnycast a brief glance at the little bird, a knowing smile twitching her lips 

"instead of sitting there and giving me the eye, you should make yourself useful and find out where he's being kept." She teased gently in a softly lilting voice, tempted almost to laugh as the bird fluffed up its feathers and released a single chirp of acknowledgment. She knew that he wasn't offended, they had been working together far too long for that,but was rather playing along with her teasing by acting like a rookie soldier that had just been given his first order, even bending one of his wings in a mock salute before taking off with a soft rustling of feathers. She watched the path of his flight for a moment before focusing once again on the knot she was working into the rope.

The Chickedee circled carefully above the inner section of the wall, gaze sweeping over the palace itself briefly before turning towards the barracks where the guardsmen slept and finally to the prison stronghold. Tilting his wings as he angled his trajectory towards the ground, the little bird curved around the edge of the intimidating structure, heading around towards the back. With barely a whisper of sound, he alighted on a meager strip of grass at the rear of the building, blinking calmly for a moment before beginning to inspect the wall. With barely a thought and a momentary shimmering around his body, the bird suddenly became a short haired bob tailed Silver house cat which twitched long white whiskers briefly before beginning to saunter along the edge of the building, pausing only to sniff intently at each low window. The prisoner cells here were kept below ground level, tiny slits barricaded buy steel bars serving as the only source of light for each room. From an earlier scouting mission, the cat knew that it was in one of these rooms that the captain had been placed in, but he had yet to discover exactly which one. Reaching the second to last window, his pointed ears suddenly perked with interest, amber eyes glowing with satisfaction as he peered through the opening and spotted a man sitting in the middle of the floor in a meditative state. He released a soft meow of confirmation before syncing to his haunches, rolling his shoulders before lifting a paw and beginning to wash his face as he contented himself in waiting.

He didn't have to wait long, the gentle sound of approaching footsteps alerting him to Celinny's arrival, and he turned his head just in time to see her slink around the corner of the building and head in his direction, eyes crinkled in a smile that was hidden behind the black veil she had pulled up over her face. He purred as she reached his location, crouching down and giving him a scratch behind both of his velvety ears.

"good job. Going to keep watch for me?" She whispered, earning a gentle bump of his head against her fingers before the light gray cat padded away with a determined air about him. Approval strong in her eyes, Celinny turned her gaze onto the man inside the small cell and studied him carefully for a moment before lowering onto her belly and propping her chin on one hand. "Looks like you've gotten yourself into a lot of trouble Jax." She commented lightly, watching curiously as she waited for his reaction to her voice.
