A network of streets.

After a long descent, the stairs levelled out, only to go back up. Confused I climbed up and stepped out of an opening, onto the roof of a building. The building was small, so it took only a few steps to reach the edge. I was on the roof of what turned out to be a three-story building, standing on a hill. Surrounding the little tower was a fairly large city. As I looked down on the city below me, I noticed that there was no plan or organisation to the layout, the entire city as build in a chaotic cluster of houses. And through it, ran a network of streets and alleys. Crossing each other, branching off, only to join back up further down. It made no sense to me, and frankly, even looking at it gave me a minor headache. The window pop-up told me of my objective for this floor.

Through streets broad and narrow.

Navigate the city and reach the exit on the other side. The guards will try to stop you, and every raised alarm lowers your reward at the end.

Reward: Dependent on the skills used to reach the end.

"Huh, looks like this is the stealth part. Good thing I just got those two skills from the bandit, they should prove useful in distracting or providing cover."

Trying to memorize as much of the layout as I could, I found a ladder leading down to the ground. I carefully began to make my way to the other side of the floor. After a while, I began to encounter people roaming the streets. And roaming they did, they walked around aimlessly, seemingly only there to serve as a form of cover to hide my present from the searching eyes of the guards.

At one point a guard pointed at me while he shouted for me to stop, but a quick cast of erotic visions made him or her stop, and stare into the distance. Often with a tinge of red on their face. An hour in and I was completely lost. The way the streets wound around each other, and the sharp turns they sometimes made, made it extremely difficult to keep your bearings. I tried to climb to a roof again, hoping this time went better than last. The last time I tried to scale a building, one of the guards saw me, and I was **** to run away, turning corners blindly in an attempt to lose him.

This time, however, I got up the roof. I saw that I was nearing the centre of the city, and the streets became more and more filled with both people and guards. I hopped from rooftop to rooftop where I could, avoiding the crowds altogether. When I got to the large boulevard that made up the main street, I heard a voice calling out. This was strange since, with the exception of the guards, nobody talked.

"Cockels, mussels. Fresh from the sea."

I looked in the direction of the voice and saw a fishmonger making her way down the street. She wore ragged clothes, torn at places, and she pushed a wheelbarrow that was filled with various seafood. I watched her pass below me and disappear into a side alley. That was when a pop-up sprang up in front of me.

Achievement.

You've first laid your eyes on Molly Malone.

Encounter the wandering fishmonger, and watch long enough to wonder about her presence.

Reward: 10 AP, A bag of assorted seafood.

"That's nice. But I wonder what the deal was with her?"

After three more hours, I finally reached the edge of the city. The entire process was exhausting me, both physically and mentally. The last thing standing between me and the exit was a single guard. He was facing away from me, towards the exit. Casually leaning against a wall, not paying the least bit attention of the things behind him. Guessing that I was close enough to the exit to run for it, I decided to try and have a little fun with him. After all, it was now four hours since I left the forest, and I was starting to feel a bit horny.

I approached the guard as quietly as I could, and when I was a few meters away from him I cast erotic visions. I imagined him seeing an attractive woman luring him into the alley behind him, with the clear intent of fucking him. When he turned around to look behind him I cast charm on him to help him believe I was the woman from his vision.

He cautiously walked towards me, and I retreated further into the alley, well away from the main street and any prying eyes. When he was near me I sprang my trap. I began with some light kissing to get him in the mood. After that, I got down on my knees and undid his belt. With his belt loose, his trousers fell down and I could free his by now hard erection. I began licking and sucking it, working his manhood until he came with a grunt. His load shot into my mouth, and I used lustfull growth to absorb his semen and convert it into more energy.

After that, I undid my own trousers, and we began fucking each other. The vision and charm spells made sure the guard never questioned what happened, and by the time we were done, we both had orgasmed several times. Each time I used my lustfull growth to absorb his energy, and when we were done he was too tired to do anything as I redressed myself and simply walked away. The guard was leaning against the wall with a satisfied, but an exhausted smile on his face.

Walking towards the exit now was a piece of cake, and I stepped down onto the stairs leading me further into the dungeon.

When the door closed behind me I received the quest complete notification.

Quest complete: Through streets broad and narrow.

You have reached the exit without being caught by the guards. Well done, looks like you know a thing or two about subtlety.

Rewards: Stealth, Acrobatics, Perception indicators.

Stealth: The ability to move around unseen and unheard. Higher levels make you more stealthy, and harder to find.

Acrobatics: Your physical skill in agility based movement: Climbing, free running, and any movement that requires grace and speed, rather than strength or endurance.

Perception indicators: HUD indicators that come with the stealth skill. These indicators assist you with staying hidden, showing you how well you are hidden. They include light, noise, vision, and magical. Higher levels of stealth will improve on the indicators ability to assist you.

I was very happy with this. As a rogue, stealth was important, and these skills were useful in moving around unseen. With a happy bounce in my step, I continued down towards the next floor.

Authors note: For those of you who didn't get the reference. The quest name and the fishmonger where both a reference to the song: Molly Malone, from The Dubliners. Arguably one of the best songs they made, check it out if you don't know it. Now, onwards to the next floor.
