  1. Fortunately this wasn't their first rodeo with sneaky doings, and Artemon was pleased to see his brother taking the matter seriously, covering their rear so they wouldn't be caught unawares by somebody approaching them from behind. They had nothing of value in their persons, but the average pickpocket couldn't possibly know that when the night was at its darkest. He scanned their surroundings with eagle-eyed enthusiasm, forgetting to look down every now and then and getting his just reward for it by stepping in a pile of something soft and stinky. Ew!

    He stomped about, trying to clean his sandal, Iophon's voice sounding amidst the thumping. "Right, that's a good idea. We should only take as much as can be blamed on rats." There! The sole was more or less clean now. Artemon's ears perked right up and he turned round so fast he was dizzy for a few seconds. "You think?! That he would let us in on it?" His blue eyes glinted with hope. If it was something expensive, maybe this time he would get the riches he had dreamed of all his life!

    Uplifted by his daydreaming, Artemon guided them to the warehouse where he worked, stopping a safe distance from it and hiding in a dark corner. "That's the one," he pointed, forgetting that in the darkness Iophon might not see his extended finger. "So what's the plan now? There's usually a guard making rounds. Do we try to avoid him or should one of us distract him while the other sneaks in?"
