Turn down a few torches. We'll rest here for now.

[Albert's voice echoes as he calls out to the rest of the group to stop. It's been a steady walk away from the warehouse even though they had been told by their Malnosso co-conspirators to leave the tunnels quickly. Extinguishing several torches, as they had been every time they rested, would help keep the amount of smoke down.

He takes out one of the sunstones that Sigmund had brought along, activating it and taking a seat against one wall. He then pulls out a notebook and begins writing, keeping an eye on the others moving around in the semidarkness.

Really, the silence following their success was rather unsettling.]

I'm surprised that the operation had gone as smoothly as it did.

As am I. The lack of reaction is almost disappointing. If the Malnosso are really so inattentive, we could do a lot without their knowing.

That is, of course...

...Assuming that they hadn't secretly wanted us to undertake this mission.

Indeed. The thought has occurred to me as well.

Whether we are playing right into their hands remains to be seen. For now, this activity keeps us alert and not simply waiting for the next experiment.

I suppose all we can do for now is bide our time and gather information until they make their next move.

The pace certainly has picked up, though, hasn't it?
