Through the back alleys of Rajmuat, Copper Isles - Sunday
Aly was doing a good job tamping down the glee she felt at having pulled this off, but those who knew her well would be able to see it almost fizzing off her. She had a basket which she hadn't let anyone peek inside and was winding her way through Rajmuat, trusting Roy to keep up without ever actually voicing the challenge.
They'd left behind the wide, paved streets of the nobles' house long ago and were still traveling in the general direction of the harbour, but she hadn't brought Roy through this particular part of the city before. It wasn't quite such a prosperous neighbourhood that odd comings and goings would be remarked upon, but it wasn't quite seedy enough to be the slums and the realm of the Queen of Thieves, and that suited Aly perfectly. In fact she'd spent a good amount of time looking for precisely such an area, and she was more than a bit pleased with what she'd come up with.
