Alhena thought for a moment. "And what's your name?" She asked thinking deeply. Should they let him tag along? They let Yatahammal and he proved useful. Speaking of him where was he? It didn't matter he would turn up somewhere most likely dead.
"Saqr Al-Sayf." He answered. Alhena's eyes got big, and she shook her head. "What? Did I say something wrong?" He asked confused. Even Rasul looked up his eyes wide. "What? Am I on fire? Come on guys talk to me!"
"You're...but how? I mean he never brought you up before." Alhena said. She began to pace, a hand under her chin as she thought.
"Who never brought me up?! Guys I'm kinda in the dark here!" Saqr nearly yelled.
"You're Malik's son, one of Altar's closest friends." Alhena said stopping. "You belong in the Brotherhood, just like your father."
Yatahammal was sitting on the roof of the Bureau eating yet again as the stars came out. Wilma sat next to him pecking his shoulder as always.

Seth signed, "you mean we don't get to kill him?"
"No you idiot, we don't kill him," growled violet.
"Can we at least..."
"No! You can't cut his thums off either."

"No but when he proves himself we can cut his ring finger off." Rasul says piping in as a last shred of hope for Seth.
"We should return to Altar with this news, he will be pleased to hear of this." Alhena said looking at Shadir. "But we should rest first and travel in the morning."
Yatahammal pokes his head in through the door in the roof. "Care if I tag along?"

Yatahammal smiled a bit and jumped down from the roof. "Thanks." He said looking towards Seth. He then turned and fell into one of the set up sleeping places, sleeping almost as soon as he touched the ground.
Alhena looked at the two of them. "Hopefully Altar will understand. Let's all try and get some sleep alright? We have a long day ahead of us." She looked to the others before leaving the Bureau. "I'll be back momentarily."
Saqr sat back down still a bit confused.

Violet sat in a chair and shut her eyes.
Gabriel curled up into a corner with a large blanket.

Alhena snuck away, seeking shelter in a tent that was on one of the roof tops. Once inside the tent she slowly toon off the guards armor she wore. Here is where she slept for the night though she didn't sleep all the night. Once the sun came up she made her way to the stables and gathered the horses. She waited for the others to join her.
Morning came too soon to Saqr. It seemed as though he just closed his eyes for a second then they were open again only now it was morning. Rasul was already up, studying over his books like always. Saqr yawned and stood before stretching. Today he would follow the assassins, maybe by tomorrow he could be one of them.
Yatahammal was awake with the sun, and again he could be found on the roof eating yet another apple with Walma at his side as well as Shamea and Canis. Mizar lay below on his pile of boots. It was a peaceful morning though it was going to ran later that day, or so said the dark clouds that rolled in from the distance. He sighed lightly taking a breath of the moist air.
He was sore. Shadir woke slowly at the first sounds of movement around him. He had a hand on his middle over the bandage, causing him to remember why they had come here in the first place. Slowly he sat up, only to have Rasul help him. "Be careful my friend, we don't want you hurting yourself more." The man said before helping Dhadir to his feet. "It's alright, I'll be fine." Shadir said as he pulled his cloak on again. "Where are the others?"
"Sleeping still but they will wake soon." Rasul said as he walked outside and nudged the others to wake them. "Up and at them brother and sisters, no need for you to sleep in."

Violet was already up. She'd been down to the market and she now made her back to the bureau with 8 bread rolls with cheese on them.
Seth woke with a start, Rasul was lucky he had taken his armor and hidden blade off the night before. "Don't do that!"
Gabriel groaned and pulled her blanket over her head.

Rasul rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Oh come on you big baby. It's time that you all got up and got a move on. Altar is not going to wait around forever." He said this as he went back inside.
Saqr climbed out of the Bureau and looked over the city. It felt different now for some reason, like he had never really known what went on in his own city. These people they were strange, very strange yet for some reason he felt as if he belonged with them at his side.
Yatahammal finished his apple and tossed it into the street, managing to hit a woman in the head with it this time. "Bullseye." He said celebrating lightly.
Shadir still had a hand on his middle, like it would help any. From his bag he pulled a small vile of medicine and he used it to dull the pain. "Alright then, we should be off. Let's all meet at the gates by noon, that way we can talk with Altar by tonight."
