"Oh! Sure, Melethia..." He moved to the bathroom she was in.

"Thank Nils." She started to take the bandage off her right eye first. "If you don't mind. I would like to see how my right eye is doing first."

1: Mage-guy, 2: Male voice, 3: Woman named "Melethia", 4: Young boy named "Nils" .... NILS?! The same kid from the war that Lord Hector got frisky with? So far, it seemed that Matthew's resident count was right. But if Nils was here, and if he remembered correctly, that meant that he had a better chance of getting caught than he originally estimated. That settled it for him. He would investigate one more room and then get out through its window right afterward.
Being sure that he left nothing out of place, he made his way to the door so that he could more easily time when he should make his move, and avoid encounters.

(( ... OH GOD. Dx
NO, NO, NO! HECTOR DID NOT GET FRISKY WITH NILS. ))
Nils nodded. "Alright..."
The bard suddenly felt uneasy. ... There's someone else somewhere, I know it. He peeked out the door, down the hallway, hoping to see something that was out of place: a person, an item moved, anything of the sort.

"We both know there is an unwanted guest in this place." Melethia said. "My eye is not bleeding is it?

Nils nodded. He then looked at Melethia's eye. "Your eye isn't bleeding."

"Good." She said, "I don't have to cover my eye with bandages."

There was still conversation going on. That was good for him, it meant that they might not notice him if he moved now... But he would wait. Matthew was still confident that this spot was safe for him, so there wasn't a need to rush things quite yet. Counter-reasonably, he did still have to get out of the house as soon as he could.
((Darn, you guys posted one more time each by the time I was done typing that...))

Nils smiled lightly. "You wanted me to bandage your back, right...?"
I'll find out who the unwelcome guest is as soon as I take care of Melethia... He decided to himself.

"Yeah" She said. "Thanks for helping Nils." She hands him the bandages.

Matthew's adrenalie started pumping from the pressure and anticipation of getting through this last room. Now! Rang itself loud and clear through his head as he made his room switch as quickly as he could, without making much noise, and darted immediately for the next room he saw which happened to be the one at the very end of the hall. He tried to open the door, but it was locked. He made short work of the hinderance with his lock pick, but he was going to fast now and starting to get sloppy. With the lock out of his way, he quickly let himself into the room and scanned for any inhabitants.
None. Good thing too, since he had barely been silent enough to keep from disturbing a sleeping person; had there been one.

Nils took the bandages. "No probl-" He fell silent, hearing a small and faint sound.
The sound of movement. Nils' heart and mind raced slightly as he looked out to the hall, trying to think of who it could be.
... The person's obviously being careful on what he or she is doing. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so quiet. He concluded.
Then, he heard it. The sound of a lock being unlocked. He was rather familiar with the sound, after many campaigns.
"Excuse me for a moment, Melethia..." As quietly as possible, the bard crept towards the sound, hoping to put his mind to rest.

Melethia couldn't say anything before Nils left. She sighed wishing she would help.

Matthew's heart was racing more than it usually did now, and it was showing. He quickly opened up drawers and opened armoires, only to close them immediately if nothing of interest caught his eye. Nothing. Oh well, can't complain about milk you didn't spill.
His mission almost complete, he practically leapt to the window and ope-- Dammit, it's jammed! The thief pryed frantically at the window to force it open, finally getting it to give away with an accidental "Thud!"

Hearing the thud, Nils moved faster. He entered the room that Matthew was in. However, in the darkness, he couldn't immediately tell who the person was.
"... Who are you?! I demand to know!"
