Eight chimes...If Sylvia had to guess the time now, she would have guessed it would be about 8 P.M. by now. But she wasn't sure. After all this time, she hadn't really learned much about Keratia's calendar or time system. That's something she would have to correct at a later time. Sylvia drew and armed herself with her tonfas as they drew closer and closer to the brewery, but she didn't summon Dinah. She did recall that familiars can help in battle, she knew that she can't cast the spell again unless she had the Scroll of Find Familiar again. Therefore, she figured it would be wise to not have Dinah participate in battle unless Syfr was out of the picture. She could hear the gang shouting. Apparently they weren't too happy about the fact that there was no pay. She grinned mischievously at the thought. 

When Pylia asked what to do, she grew serious and she answered her friend, "I'm thinking an ambush. Some of us hide, and we can come out from the shadows and knock them out. If necessary, one of us can be a distraction," She then added, "I'm thinking either me, or Buddy, can be the distraction," She asked Buddy, "You up for being a distraction, Bud?"
