Zeal concedes. They’ll look for evidence later.

Even with setting sun casting shadows across the city, plenty of people still roam the streets of the market district. Queues of restaurants and road side vendors seems longer with every passing moment.
Among the rows of buildings and houses lies the papermakers workshop, a moderately size house that is quite far from the main roads. Having a house also operate as a workshop or store isn’t uncommon, although the amount of vegetation around it is quite unusual, usually only seen on the more rural area of Clawflash.
Cold breeze accompanies them as the group fade back from rooftops to rooftops. A strange phenomenon, considering the day has been mostly dry and windless. Perhaps it is merely the weather being mercurial, or it is caused by Warin’s teacher.
Either way, it makes their long, flowing clothes slightly more bearable. Although such a design would make them stick out in public, since they are hiding from sight, it doesn’t matter that much. Being able to conceal most of their bodies and distort the silhouettes are more important right now.
Along side their clothings and tools of distractions, the group was able to call upon a favor….
(Choose ONE)
>foul smelling fishes [lower stealth DC, failure becomes more severe]A house nearby the workshop is cooking food outdoors. Salted fish can produce quite a strong smell when fried. It can linger in the air and can stick to clothing for quite a while. This will definitely irritate the papermakers in the workshop, making them less attentive, but less tolerant of strange people in their backyard…
>a troupe performing [1d3 to determine stealth difficulty] Nearby the workshop, there will be a play from a moderately successful troupe. The attention they garnered and the noises they could distract the people in the workshop.
[1 = harder DC]
[2 = normal DC]
[3= easier DC]
>rough illustrations [fewer DCs, DCs become more difficult]A map of the workshop and the backyard. With this in hand, their routes become much more efficient ー instead of visiting 3 or 4 locations, they know that the paper are kept in 2 possible locations. A quick operation, but the paths they take will leave them quite exposed…
