The manhole appears to be bolted shut and won't open, the chief of police, Josh Budders sees the group and approaches them in the distance. Johnny kneels down and punches the manhole cover, breaking it to a point where the metal can be lifted. Johnny throws it out of the way and leads everyone into the sewers one by one, watching the man running towards them vigilantly. @Jakz The Ripper @Garbacca
They're now moving down inside some kind of hole, maybe a manhole of some kind? Another person approaches the group in the distance, but he seems rather angry. Jerry slides down the rusty ladder into the dark sewer below, he waits for the others at the bottom.
Johnny stares down Sortil, while he is injured Johnny takes to being as intimidating as possible to scare off the stranger.
-sortil sortil keeps advancing " 'allo. I just got out of there, i doubt you want to be down there now.."
-sortil sortil gestures at his tattered clothes "why would you want to go down there.. when you can be up here? down there is dark and miserable... and full of nearly invincible psychic crows. have fun" he walks off toward the city, still toting the bag of feathers
Johnny looks confused but comes to and leads the others down the ladder regardless. Josh approaches Sortil next, gently placing his hand open-palm on Sortil's chest. "Excuse me, who exactly are you?" Danny taps on Spike's shoulder, asking where Kently went off to.
He squeezes her hand, staring worriedly at the burning city. "Doesn't look like they're anywhere near here... still... why did this happen? Why now..."
She checks the map, on edge a little from Auslier's tone. 'Uh, we are around, beneath the wall. Why?' In the darkness of the tunnel past her you see movement, and the ground beneath your feet seems almost... to breathe?
he carefully turns around, being careful so as to not make any sudden movements... "We need to turn back... Carefully... If this is an umbrahulk, then we do not want to wake it... If it's not an umbrahulk, then we need to find an alternate route anyway..."
She nods silently, slowly padding back in your direction. The wall starts rippling slightly. Oh no, looks like the snacks were next to some sort of piping, which broke, leaving the snacks disowned in a puddle on the floor of the cupboard. The only thing that survived is a single packet of hlthy cbg soop.
