Traci just walked over, her physical appearance and clothes changing to fit the woman perfectly.
"Thank you, dear..."
She quickly hid the woman under the desk and then looked through the papers for anything that might be important before continuing on her way.
English
-
[i]She received a name "Elizabeth A. Montgomery" - oddly civil for such a place. Traci also found a map of the city's divisions, a few maps of what seemed to be tunnels underneath the city as well, some cards from a lover in the girl's satchel.. and another note.[/i] [b]Meet with Rue at palace, floor two. Promotion?[/b]
-
Traci placed the woman back in her chair and positioned her so she looked like she had fallen asleep before stuffing all the maps into the satchel and taking it with her as she left.
-
[i]Outside, Traci would find that she was at least within the middle class homes of Khaom. The city was still darkened from nighttime, the towering walls casted over the civilization. Yet torches dimly lit the city, as civilians of medieval proportions would traverse through the rainy streets.[/i] [i]For now, Traci needed to establish contact with spies within the city. A bar might work.[/i]
-
Traci found the nearest bar, changing her face back to her normal one as well as her hair back to its normal red. She walked, observing her surroundings.
-
[i]Her surroundings were rather average as she came in, yet as she entered, she would see a flash of gold from a table in the corner, with a hooded person sitting at it. Most of the patrons seemed to be travelers, so they blended in well.[/i] [i]Perhaps this was one of the Trayven spies.[/i]
-
Traci slipped through the tables and people as she made her way to the table, trying not to bring attention to herself.
-
"Guess this is the lady of.. the lady, perhaps?" [i]The hooded figure would joke, as Traci drew closer to his being. He would wave for her to sit at the table, offering her what appeared to have been a glass of fresh water.[/i]
-
Edited by Stitch: 12/21/2017 3:47:52 PMTraci sat down with a small smile and took the glass in hand. "Not a hundred percent sure what that means, but it sounds good."
-
"You and boss's.. relationship, I meant. She's holding up well, by the way. Good to see that you're alright, too." [i]The man would pull back his hood, revealing a bald, simple face, one that could blend in within a crowd and never be found, his eyes a light brown.[/i] "Wayne. I know you already - basic info, anyway."
-
"I was never told anything about you, but if you happen to cross me that should be an easy fix." Traci drank from the glass, smiling, making it appear like she was just having a friendly conversation.
-
[i]The bald man would shrug, simply.[/i] "If you do, then just know.. I'm like every other person. You'd.. well, tear through me."
-
"Good to know, but I'm not here to threaten you. I'm sorry if I am coming off a bit rough or mean. Anyway, is there information you have that could help me? I want to get this job done as fast and as well as I can. I have to get back to my girl..." Traci got a bit quiet at the end, worry in her voice.
-
"Hey, you're alright. Name's Edwin, for future references. Right now, our friend Fabio is heading through the arena, checking out whatever's going on underneath there. You'll be at the palace itself, seeing what's up. I love the uniform, by the way. Promoted?" [i]Coincidental, that Traci - or this Elizabeth that she had previously disguised as - was supposedly heading to a meeting at the palace, recalling the note on her being.[/i]
-
"Yes actually. I have a note to go to a meeting in the palace. I should probably be off, shouldn't I? I wouldn't want to be late." She giggled as she set the glass down, preparing to leave.
-
"Go ahead, kiddo. Be back for the party here though." [i]Edwin raised a glass to Traci, as she prepared to get moving. He smiled a little, beckoning for her to get moving: the palace wasn't too far away, though she would need to initiate her disguise.[/i]
-
Traci left, her face changing back to that of the woman's while she slipped through the crowds. She quickly made her way to the palace.
-
[i]The palace was a particularly massive place, the walls that surrounded the overshadowing building spiked and as old as the greater ones around the mighty city. The blood red banners of dragons soared high above, with Khaomite servants and guardsmen traversing throughout the palace, nobles gathering to discuss political affairs.[/i] "Ms. Elizabeth?" [i]A feminine voice would speak to Traci, as a taller, robed woman would speak to her. Her robe was of a light satin, her form seemingly built for athleticism beyond the mage-like garb. The woman's dirty blonde hair was braided around her neck, as she nodded towards Traci.[/i] "I suppose that you are here for our discussion?"
-
Traci nodded and smiled, her voice sounding just like that of Elizabeth's despite never hearing her speak. "Indeed! May I ask what this about again? I seem to have forgotten." She said in a joking tone.

Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 12/23/2017 7:15:38 PM"...It is unsurprisingly common for you to forget important matters, Liz. You do this all the time." [i]The woman noted, sighing.[/i] "I'm Rue, you remember that much? Your older sister? And Operation Ragnarok? I've said too much. Come along." [i]Rue would motion for Traci to follow: she was a woman that held herself in high regard, it seemed, as she pushed others aside for herself and who she believed to be her sister.[/i] "I hope you've been treated well. I've heard bad things about these Khaomite filth. If their true Empress.. Isabella, I believe - was here and not supporting the enemy.."
-
Traci followed closely behind, nodding. "I've been treated just fine, Rue. Try not to worry about me."
-
"I'm just.. checking. I care for you. The last spy that we lost was sold into the fight pits and.." [i]Rue sighed, as the two came into a room that seemed to be Rue's own: it seemed as if the Tribune were still negotiating with Khaom's politicians to prevent an uprising, and Rue seemed to be one of these ambassadors.[/i] "As for Ragnarok.. the thing about the dragon.. As of now, the Khaomites are unwilling to reveal it's existence, yet we still know of the creature. Or at least - you, and I, and few others, do. All that the rest know is that there is something kept deep below the arena, and.. It could spell doom for us all. A beast that could ravage worlds."
-
"Yes, that's true...." Traci purposely made it sound like she had forgotten, but was trying to act like she did know.
-
"...You've got to be kidding. You know this, Liz." [i]Rue sighed, handing her a glass of water before then sitting down.[/i]
-
Traci nervously chuckled and took the glass, running her finger around the top in an anxious manner. "Hehehe....I'm so sorry, Rue."
-
"It's.. it's fine. You're my sister. We'll get through this." [i]Rue would nod towards Traci then, sighing.[/i] "Though with how you're one of our few troops that've infiltrated the Khaomites, you're being promoted - I'm trusting you to accompany me on more complicated operations."
