What time is it?

[Hikari Kazuya]

As both Marcus and Silk scaled the mosque wall, the moment the two of them touched ground on the rooftop, from their vantage point, they would see city guards patrolling the empty streets of the city, at least fifteen, all scattered around, with two heading in the direction of the street they had just been in. There were guards around, they just hadn't reached them yet. If the two of them looked through the glass dome of the mosque, they would make out a large room, but it did not appear to be filled with mats, or books, or even old people praying. In fact, the interior appeared anything but a place of worship.

Do they head inside the mosque?

[Deleted]

There's a time for subtlety, and a time to break through a glass dome like your the god damn batman!

Marcus Dynamic Entries into the Mosque.

Silk was looking around at the guards and they didn't look all that friendly. The trouble maker part of her thought about jumping down just to have some amusing antics to remember in the morning. Though she'd taken her eyes off Marcus, long enough for him to apparently jump through the dome of the mosque. She hurried over to it and peered in.

"What the hell Marcus?!"

Though it didn't stop her from following him down through the hole he'd now created. After all, he must have seen something in that dome worth going after and Silk was never fond of being left out of fun times.

[Hikari Kazuya]

Marcus Dynamic Entries into the glass dome like a bauss, with Silk following in after him! It does catch the attention of the city guards however, but before the guards can take off in the direction of the breaking glass, their attention is caught by the shouts of their fellow guards, speaking what sounded like Arabic. Hesitating between investigating the source of the broken glass and aiding the other guards, they eventually choose to aid the other guards, and take off.

As the guards run off in the opposite direction, as they did, a pair of eyes would be watching Silk and Marcus from the shadows of the rooftop of the building behind the mosque as they headed inside. The pair of eyes vanishing from view immediately, soon after a dark figure leaped from the rooftop and grabbed the edge of a balcony, hoisting himself up and slipped inside the mosque unnoticed.

As Marcus and Silk landed, they would find themselves inside a large room. They are free to explore the room, or head out of the mosque, back towards the palace.

Marcus landed in a crouch, but not before cracking the stone floor with the weight of his landing. So it would seem this Mosque was not all it appeared. At the very least he had never seen one that had a mini planetarium in it. Granted he had only ever been in about two or three different ones in his travels.

"Wonder if there's Treasure here......."
Marcus wondered aloud before darting off to give the large room a thorough searching.
"Hey Silk! Betcha Five Bucks a Wizard lives here!"

[Deleted]

Silk, after her bender the night before not as graceful as she usually was and while Marcus happened to land crouching... she landed on her face. That is right ladies and gentlemen she belly fucking flopped into the floor. While Marcus happily jumped off to go exploring, Silk sat up rubbing her severely hurt face and slightly bloody nose from the fall. She nursed her wounded ego while waiting for the bleeding to stop. The bleeding stopped after a few seconds but regardless, not her best entrance. Hearing Marcus she looked at the floor where the stone cracked and grunted softly.

"Bet ya a grand your ass owes him money for cracking his floor!"

She replied back as she slowly got up off her knees and stretched. She heard her shoulders pop and her back, then with a heavy sigh lumbered after Marcus who resembled an excited puppy exploring his new home.

"Honestly Marcus... Aren't we getting a little too old for this shit?"

Which the spanish woman couldn't even say with out snickering.

[Hikari Kazuya]

As Marcus darted around the large room, located throughout the alcoves in the room were display cases pushed up against the walls, a large and vast array of books displayed inside. As he and Silk neared the North area of the room, they would find more display cases containing more books. However, they were not alone inside the room. High above on the balcony area, hidden well out of sight from either of them in the shadows, the pair of eyes that had been watching them prior was watching them again. Watching and waiting, but for what, only time would tell.

They are free to continue exploring the room, or go through the North doorway.

[Deleted]

"There's something......here."
Marcus muttered to himself as he began flinging bits and pieces of this and that around the giant room as he continued to search for.......

Whatever it was that had called to him from the top of the dome.
Marcus just couldn't quite shake the feeling that there was something important he had to find inside this room and if he knew his own dream logic, he wouldn't know what it was until he found it.

As for Silks comment about their age.
"Blasphemy! I'll be fighting pirates and chasing treasure well into my 50's."

[Deleted]

Silk followed behind Marcus though she certainly got the feeling they weren't alone, or at the very least that some how they were being watched. She rubbed her chest.

"Owww... falling really hurts... Marcus, c'mon, stop climbing things."

She huffed.

"I don't know why people relate these things to air bags... they fucking hurt if you land on them."

She sighed as she looked around.

"Wish this place had like... ice or something."

She grumbled still rubbing at her chest. She looked around before walking up behind Marcus as he began to fling things about.

"Really? Looting? Isn't that like... more my style? Or Bandit's for that matter?"

[Hikari Kazuya]

As Marcus turned the large room inside out in his quest to find... stuff! He would find nothing of interest, unless he was interested in old books! Then he would find interesting stuff! It wasn't until he neared the stairs located in the center of the room that he would find something of interest. If he walked to the top of the stairs, just as he stepped onto the platform, he and Silk would hear a click, followed by a hidden panel of the floor shifting to the side, revealing a hidden staircase beneath!

Do they head down the stairs?

[Deleted]

"OH MY GOD JUST TELL ME YOU WANT ME TO SQUEEZE YOUR BOOBS ALREADY! Sheesh!"
Marcus wailed with an exasperated tone, staring at Silk for a few awkward seconds before his mouth opened up into a wide smile, his hands making grasping motions towards her before he whirled around and bounded down the stairs

"ADVENTUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure"

[Deleted]

Silk stood there with a blank face at Marcus' words about touching her. Her eye twitched and as he made the grabby hand motions it only twitched more. He bounded down the stairs and she just smacked herself in the head with a groan before lumbering down the steps after him.

"You know... When I catch up.... Someone's getting their ass beat!"

[Hikari Kazuya]

As Marcus and Silk made their way down the stairs, they would find the stairway slowly curving, winding its way down into the depths below the mosque. Upon reaching the bottom of the stairs, they would be able to make out lights flicker in the distance. Once they moved forward, upon reaching the doorway, they would find themselves in a rather spacious room, with another doorway located on the East side.

They are free to explore what appeared to be an apothecary of sorts, or go through the East door.

[Deleted]

Marcus effectively came to a screeching halt before the giant candlelit room under the the Mosque, looking about himself in wide eyed wonder.
"Ooooooou It's getting all Dark Souls up in here......"
Slowly, Carefully, the man would begin to walk around, checking out the tables and cubby holes and checking for tricks, traps and hidden things!

[Deleted]

Silk looked around unamused as she followed Marcus. At the moment he was like a kid in a candy store. Short of her walking past him completely naked, nothing could derail that. So, she just stayed by watching him as he searched around. She was waiting for the inevitable yelp that would come with being stuck with something sharp or perhaps getting himself stuck.

"You know... if you get stuck... I'm just going to say I told you so... And probably tease you til the point that you explode. Just for my own amusement."

It was her dream right? So why the hell not?
