Swamped

You saw her earlier, meeting with the girl you tricked into giving you the password. You think her name was Elize?

Not that you got a very good look, but you did catch a glimpse of those boots that were quite a bit more colorful than the standard-issue pair. And you're getting a much better look at them now, since she's stopped right in front of your hiding place.

Luckily, she doesn't seem to be going for it. You don't think there's room for three in here. Mark already seems to be a little uncomfortable with how cozy it is with just the two of you.

Instead, she ducks into a nearby room, one that you had thought was locked.

About a minute later, an actual patroller comes through the halls, looking for miscreants like you. But they don't catch you, or pay any attention to the closed door.

When they move on, Mark glances at you.

"We still heading back?" he whispers. "Or are we checking out whatever she's up to in there?"
