It's alright, I understand better than you'd know. You got us this far.

[ Seriously, being stalled out by something you can't help at the most critical moment... he definitely understood.

Nodding to both of them, he moved ahead, though he... pressed his hand on Eugene's shoulder for a moment, in an attempt to reassure him. ]

Thanks, take care, both of you.

[ Down the corridor, room on your left-- Ah, there it was. The window was easy enough to creek open, but before he left, Dojima glanced around--

...A used coffee mug? It'll have to do... Grabbing it up and putting it in on of his pouches, Dojima climbed carefully out the window, dropping to the castle grounds. ]

[ Crouching down, he made his way back to the woods-- he could've whistled for Llamrei and Cavall to come to him, but that would've spooked Adachi even more. Better to keep the element of surprise as much as he could.

Both were waiting for him- Cavall jumped up, but didn't bark-- could he tell Dojima's mood already? Kneeling down, Dojima held out the coffee mug for the dog to sniff. ]

--Sorry it's not much to go on, but I'm pretty sure this was Adachi's.

[ Hopefully the dog could separate the smell of coffee from the smell of cheap aftershave and cabbage. Cavall whined, sniffing the cup intently-- before beginning to move-- towards the castle. Okay, so he got part of the scent at least. Putting the mug in Llamrei's side satchel, Dojima pulled himself up, pulling on the reins to guide the horse. ]

Track him, Cavall-- Llamrei-- follow Cavall, don't lose sight of him... We need to hunt Adachi down.

[ The Hunt was on. ]
