You figure you're less likely to be noticed if you just empty the barrel slowly.

The keg's cork doesn't give way at first, but with enough tugging you manage to work it loose. A thick stream of beer sprays out of the hole and onto the barrels around you, splashing all over - as well as onto Strokmier. The beer foams up slightly on contact with the leather, but seems benign. You shoot a quick glance down at the beastwoman - despite the noise of the **** spattering on the wood, she seems to be preoccupied with the violently hissing concoction she's managing down below. Certainly a fortunate turn of events!

"...suds a fun... russ padum... fizza beer's done...!"

By the time she's resealed the keg, enough beer has escaped the keg for its pouring to grow much quieter - and it's also light enough for you to push aside and squeeze out the window.

Peering through the window first, you see an empty courtyard just outside. A wall cuts across the courtyard, but it seems to be in the direction of the drawbridge - no reason to go back that way. More importantly, you can see the base of the tower itself right outside! You lose no time in crawling outside through the narrow opening; the gentle noise of her humming fades away as you step outside for what feels like the first time in ages.

Only then do you notice that the beer that sloshed onto your gauntlet is still foaming wildly! You tear your gauntlet away, watching it shrivel up as magic energy tears through it in a vicious feedback loop. The twisted leather wad is useless to you now, so you sadly discard it. You are too far in to give up, so pressing on is your only choice.

With the succubus' tower finally within reach, you take a deep breath and look for entrances.
