As soon as the inspection was over and the carriages were allowed to proceed into the city, Kaizen and his friends began planning their next move.
The shed they were led into was imposing, with dark stone walls and reinforced gates to protect the supplies from the extreme climate of Niflheim. The wagons entered and then the Shaccares were removed, so that they could rest from their journey in a suitable place.
Before closing the large metal doors, Valthorn looked around and said:
"Guys, I'll be back later, after dark, to pick you up. It'll be safer to use the elevator to the palace when most of the guards' shift is over."
His voice echoed through the shed to Kaizen and the others inside that cloth-covered carriage, and finally the doors closed with a bang and then the sound of a lock clicking shut.
Xisrith stepped out of the carriage, still looking a little suspicious, and offered Alina a hand to climb down as well.
