Ahnasha heard Janius mention that he had found some alcohol, though it didn't really matter to her. For the health of her child, she needed to abstain from drinking until it was born. Lorag, on the other hand, was visibly ecstatic over the find. The moment Janius dropped them next to him, he let just a bit of the liquid flow from the keg. It wasn't labeled with anything he could read, but a quick sniff gave him all the information he needed. 

"Sujamma, I haven't had this in years." Lorag said, anxiously awaiting his drink. He looked at Janius, cracking a satisfied smile. "What are you waiting for? Get us some mugs over here."

As Fendros moved from her shoulders to upper back, Ahnasha felt nothing but ecstasy come over her, as if all of her stress was melting away. It took her a while to even form a response for Fendros. "Well, I wouldn't be experiencing the sensations of Aetherius itself right now. Still, I like to think we were fated to be together. Maybe it just wouldn't have happened as quickly. There's no point in worrying about what-if's, though. I love you here and now, and I don't see that changing. For now, just...go lower."

Meesei was dead silent when she heard a noise come from Ariel's direction. She was ready to react to anything, but it seemed as if Ariel had managed to remain hidden, as she came back down soon enough without being spotted. As they hid away behind a crate, Meesei nodded to Ariel, again not wanting to make any unnecessary noise. In the time that they were waiting, another of the witches passed by, but they were hidden well-enough to remain undetected. Once the coast was clear, Meesei followed Ariel underground, through a path to the next tower. The only living things they encountered along the way were rats, but their destination was another story. From their place in the shadows, they could see beyond the pathway into what appeared to be an underground room underneath one of the towers, and from Meesei's life detection spell, she could see that there was someone inside. Even more interestingly, from their angle, they could see what looked like alchemy equipment. Meesei did not want to speak while they were so close to one of the witches, so she simply tapped on Ariel's shoulder and looked at her expectantly, awaiting confirmation on her suspicions.
