OOC: Location: City of Braggerfall; Town Hall
The morning had arrived. Rikus was exhausted from a lack of sleep, but he wouldn't allow that to affect him in the face of such important matters. He made his way to city hall, walking through the streets. The reaction from the towns people seemed extremely mixed. At this point, Rikus didn't care any longer. The cat was out of the bag, so-to-speak, and Rikus imagined he'd have to return to the city. May as well make the people get used to it.
Rikus found his way thought the crowds until he'd finally reached the steps of city hall. Glancing about, Rikus could pick out those requested from the towns people fairly easily. Lucky, the city's market was in session just in front of city hall. Townfolk were coming and going in every direction, making it near impossible for the King's men to parade through the crowd even if they did know what was happening.
It wasn't long before the peddlers began to emerge. One selling hair accessories. One selling scarves. One offering hot baths. The shoe shiner was nowhere to be found. Rikus waited impatiently. Perhaps he was attending to the other requested heroes. Perhaps he was just late. Rikus knew that the longer they stood there, the more a risk they had of being found out and rounded up all at once. What a grand event that'd make.
Finally... the shoe polisher. He'd found his way and was caught amidst a mix of market shoppers. Well, at least Rikus could rest easy that the plans were all in motion.
