[[Hollandaise]]


As soon as the doors opened, Hollandaise booked it out of her damp cell. She hugged the walls of the prison as people rushed past. It was too many people for her to be entirely comfortable, even though she realized that it was imperative to leave. Her eyes scanned the crowd - many of the people were taller than her and she poked herself up on tip-toe. A familiar head of dark hair moved past and her hand shot out, twisting into his sleeve.

"Chaya?" She looked up at him with big eyes, fully prepared to cling to him to ride out the tide of people.

"I am alright - are you okay?" A small, relieved smile crossed her face. Hollandaise was alright - there was a small bump on the back of her head and her mouth felt very much like cotton, but she wasn't bleeding. The flood of people moved them along a bit and she went willingly this time. She glanced at the secret tunnel that yawned in front of them like some dark mouth. It was unknown, rough-hewn and nothing at all like the stone walls of Camelot. It made her uneasy.

Swallowing, she tugged on Chaya's sleeve before self-consciously letting go. Hollandaise remembered, then, what she had seen as she pulled Bardiche out of the glowing water.Should she-? She opened her mouth, then closed it, then shook her head. "I guess we should go." Tunnels were meant to be traversed in the ways doors were meant to be opened and memories meant to be remembered, she supposed. But Hollandaise did not know if she should tell him.

They walked for some time (occasionally a knight would sprint past them, his urgency something she did not feel). The shadows in the corridor held things that Holly did not like to look at and she curled her toes uncomfortably in her boots. The path branched in front of them - four ways - and her eyes widened. She knew, she knew...

"I need... this one, Chaya. We must go here." She spoke in a flat voice, and her eyes were fixed, unblinking, on the leftmost corridor.

Cadence raced down the path that had opened up after the cells had unlocked. When the secret passage way branched into three paths she paused for a moment looking three different choices before deciding to go to the left. She didn’t doubt that it would be long before someone noticed the escape and she wanted to get as far away as possible before that happened.

Following the rest out of the dungeons, he was surprised by the various paths that laid before them. It was a bit overwhelming, especially considering he had no idea what they were to be doing now. But... looking along the options laid out, the one furthest to the left looked good enough as any. And that was the one he headed for.
