"I'm as good as an assassin can be, I guess." I said. "I have no love for the North. Siltch. Nada. None." I could see that he was nervous when he said we should get going. "Don't worry they will be looking for me, not you. If we get caught I'll say I forced you to help." Then I motioned him to follow. I know a way out. "Follow me, I can get us away without being seen." I walked over to the wall, felt around on it, then pushed in on one of the stones. The wall shifted slightly and I pushed inwards revealing a dark passageway. "Old smugglers' routes, few know about them anymore. It should be safe."

"Where heading to the outskirts of town, I have a house there. The tunnel leads almost directly to it." I replied. I grabbed a torch off the wall and lit it with a flint and steel. I proceeded to walk forward, making certain turns I had memorized. "I became an assassin because the North slaughtered my family. I came home one day from watching warriors train, and I saw my family burning and our house along with it. So I went to kill the soldiers that did it." I said gloomily. "I was numbed from that day on... I kill because I can when others can't. Do you get what I'm saying?" Then I added, "I refuse to kill children though, that's just wrong in every way."

"The missions are different, they always are for good. Some of mine aren't, but business is business." I replied. We took a few more complicated series of turns and came to a dead end. I pushed on the center stone and the wall shifted and I pulled it open. "Come on my house is this way." I told him in a whisper.

"Well, here's the road, the grass, oh and over ther is an unhappy villager." I said said as serious as I could act, then I started to laugh. Wow I needed that laugh. "Yah sure I'll show you my house." I walked down past two houses and came upon my house. It was a decent size, not big and not small. Just right. I walked up to my mailbox and unlocked it. I grabed the contents then relocked it. "More jobs, smuggling I hope." I told him holding up the mail. "Come on, come in." And I walked up to the door, opened it, and went in.
