Eros caught on to the game pretty fast and spun to face Amanda and Ngozi. "Looks like the royal family's got the dungeon on lockdown, and they're charging an entry fee. We could easily pay up and dive in, but rushing in blind? That's just asking for trouble. We need the lowdown on who else is after the Anchor stone. Remember, knowing what's up is half the battle."
Amanda and Ngozi exchanged a quick glance, a silent convo passing between them, before they both nodded at Eros. "Cool," he said, pleased with the quick agreement. "Let's split up and scoop up all the intel we can. Meet back here in an hour."
With the plan set, they moved. Ngozi slipped away so smoothly, it was like she became one with the shadows, while Amanda slinked into the crowd, her movements as fluid as a snake.
