[If there is another advantage to Dezel doing the brunt of the work with a quick retreat, it's that he knows Verens like the backs of his own hands. It's without any hesitation that he runs, leaps and practically flies across and between rooftops, swiftly putting distance between them and the crowd in the square. Some quick windstepping here, some even faster windrushing there and before too long they're a good, safe distance away. It's only then that he comes to a halt, pausing to read the air currents carefully and glancing back once before he drags Rose off his shoulder to set her on her own two feet on the roof where he's stopped.]

You ate one of those bad curry buns earlier... You're getting sick, aren't you?
