A flash of blinding light left Ryan reeling as the guy with cat ears dashed from the room. It wasn't as though he would have chased the guy in the first place, a sentiment clearly not shared by the demihuman that chased after him. As soon as he recovered from the flash powder, Ryan immediately lost his sight again as a dark fog overtook him.

[color=0072bc]"Why!?"[/color] He shouted as the disorienting darkness overtook him. While it didn't take long for Maria to dispel the magic that had affected everyone in the vicinity, it felt like ages. 

[color=0072bc]"What...the hell...was that?"[/color] Ryan asked as he managed to pick himself up. [color=0072bc]"I think I'm fine. I just need a moment."[/color] He said keeping the contents of his stomach down. Why the heck would someone do that just to catch one thief? Was that wolf guy insane?

[color=007236]"Woah woah woah!"[/color] Jiru shouted as he heard Grian shout 'shamac'. Quickly diving into the barracks and vaulting through the window and hitting the ground outside just in time to evade the blinding fog. [color=007236]"That's a bad dog!" [/color]Jiru shouted back angrily. A dirty trick, trying to use magic to blind- oh...right. Well, it was different for him since [i]he[/i] was the one running away. 

Dashing back around the back of the HQ he found an easy part of the wall to scale. [i]'None of this went the way it should have.'[/i] He thought. Now he'd have to send a letter to the knights apologizing for the whole catastrophe...Well he wouldn't have to, nor would he actually do it, but it's the thought that counts. 

[color=007236]"Why the hell did that mutt have to be there?"[/color] He asked himself. Of all the people that could have been talking with Maria, it just had to be that lunatic. He wondered if those foreigners were alright, they seemed nice enough. Maybe the whole experience didn't run them away from the Iron Bell. [i]They're probably fine, but I'm sure that dog'll regret firing that off in the HQ like that.[/i]

Jiru's next course of action? Probably hit up an inn and celebrate another day of freedom. As much as he'd love to hang around and tease the Knights a bit, he'd probably end up skewered by that wolf. The Crescent Moon Tavern would probably be a good place to lay low for a bit, any distance he could put between himself and that fort would certainly be welcome about now.
