Boom!
An explosion coming from the direction where Jaspreth knew his friends were headed immediately had him running out of the building he was scouting.
He muttered a curse, pulling up the map, and saw where his friends might b. He ran in that direction. Several minutes later, he found himself standing outside the ruins of what must have been a grand hotel.
Astherielle and Nayowmi joined him, each catching their breaths.
Without saying anything, the three of them looked up at the building. On one side of it, white smoke rose towards the sky. It was a fresh explosion and one that didn't thrill Jaspreth by one bit.
"Do you think they're alright?" Astherielle wondered out loud.
"They were moving, running if I must assume, when I checked the map," Jaspreth replied.
