Aedric returned after a while, having made the arrangements.
Hailey would take a carriage to roam the city, enjoying the fresh air. At a predetermined location, the carriage would slow down, Hailey would crack open the door, and Arin would slip inside, say what he needed to, and then leave.
Aedric, disguised as a coachman, would personally drive the carriage to ensure secrecy.
As planned, Arin arrived at the River Front in the evening. The place was always sparsely populated, and as night fell, it would become even more deserted—an ideal setting for their meeting.
The black coach appeared on the horizon.
Arin took his position, while Ragna stood nearby, scanning the surroundings for any possible stalkers.
The carriage approached, its speed slowing as planned.
The coachman took his hat off to signal the plan was set in motion. A door opened just a bit, and Arin, moving with the precision of a snake, slipped inside.
Ragna remained behind, ensuring no one followed.
