Within ten minutes Jevyn and Tak find themselves hopelessly lost in a maze of back alleys and dark side-streets. Rats scurry in the gutters and you receive hostile glares from the rare passersby; thin, anxious-looking folk whose pale faces are hidden under dark hoods.
Shiv is heading to the watch tower if not there already. The viashino is currently on Atlas's shoulders instructing him where to walk from his high perch with increased visibility of the street :D
Shiv and Atlas arrive at the Wtachtower a few minutes later to find a purple-faced Witherwick staring at them. "What the bloody Hell are you doing back here? You report in at 1:00 this morning! If this is your idea of a joke..." The man continues to rant for several minutes.
"Calm down Witherwick" Shiv will say with a grin in-between getting yelled at. "I got nothing going on until our shift tomorrow and didn't know if you needed anything done until then. Atlas and I are looking for a productive way to kill some time. The viashino will then pat the shoulder of the Warforged positioned underneath him.
The man glares at you for a minute, trying to read your intentions. "Alright then." He mutters. " Hicks! " A nervous-looking man wearing a uniform several sizes too large scurries up. "Sir?" He salutes. " I want you to give these folks the lay of the land. They're our newest recruits. " Hicks nods and leads you through the massive double doors and into the Watchtower.
The first floor is a massive mess hall, with a winding stone staircase leading to the upper floors. At least three dozen watchmen sit around at the scattered tables, swigging ale or munching on chicken legs. Hicks nods to them condescendingly as he leads you up the stone staircase, pointing out doors as you ascend to higher levels.
"That there's old Witherwick's quarters. And that's where the divididiation mages get them requests for help from all across the city ."
Glancing down from the fourth level, the soldiers in the mess hall are no larger than ants.
Atlas continues on, Shiv perched on him. It is a natural thing by this point, Shiv hanging on him. Atlas hardly paid it any attention. He stomps around, following behind Hicks as without much to say. "Witherwick appears to be experiencing a lot of tension. Enough to change the coloration on his face. From my experience, it is not healthy for the more fleshy folk to be under hypertension like that. Will he be alright? Does he require assistance?"
Tak looks at Jevyn and says "Are you sure this is the right way? None of this seems familiar to me. Mind if I take a look at your map?" (hopefully Jevyn hands me the map) Noticing Jevyn hands it to him upside down Tak just slightly tilts his head and holds the map. "Wait here a moment" he says to Jevyn as he takes flight and flies into the air to get his bearings on where they are on the map.
Survival (to find our position on the map): 9
Survival (to find a location close to the Frowning Jester and watchtower.): 18
Perception (to see if Jevyn is getting mugged): 25
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"I'm walking here, can't you see i'm helping my friend." Tak says as he tries to guide Jevyn slowly away from the Frowning Jest but will within range of Esme.

OOC: Sorry for the lack of posts here lately. I'm having trouble keeping up right now since I'm being bogged down with Holiday stuff.
(No worries. We just assume that you are hanging out with Shiv. :D)

(I am confused... so did we already report in to him? Did I miss reporting in at 1am? Do we not need to report in until 1am tomorrow?)
(It is about 4:00 in the afternoon. You are to report in for your shift at 1:00 in the morning.)

(1am tomorrow? or am I 7 hours late?)
(Tomorrow)

Hicks laughs. "Him's always looking like a fresh-picked beet. Don't pay captain no mind."

Tak successfully gets his bearings and leads the way to the Frowoning Jester. Stealth checks to avoid being spotted by the bouncers.

Stealth: 6
(I imagine him walking along singing to himself "herp derp herp, stealth stealth stealth, I am so sneaky! herp derp herp")
Stealth: 4
As soon as the pair got within range of Esme, Jevyn immediately began seeing through her senses, relying on Tak to guide him.
"Hey!" Shouts one of the bouncers, catching sight of you slinking in the shadows. " Whadda you think you're doin', wise guys? "
(I assure you that I use the term 'wise guys' ironically.)
