How had she ended up climbing after everybody? It wasn't like she was slow, and if anyone fell then she would be the worst placed to try and catch them… oh well, this was pretty easy to make her way up? Sure, it had the marks of someone trying to make a smooth surface, but then they'd gone and gotten [i]decorative[/i] about it.

… The climbability of the exterior probably wasn't a major thought in architectural design, was it?

The redhead let out a startled mrowp sound as Esben hoisted her up, pouting at the spy before seizing onto the exterior once again. "I c-can climb fine on my own… that's n-not [i]so[/i] big…"

Still, with the distraction going on inside, they would have to climb fast. Both so their target and Ciradyl were still there, so the rest of the team didn't destroy the building underneath them, and in case there were any guards lining up shots in the rest of the courtyard. Esben had only gotten two of them, after all. 

At least one good point of climbing to the top was that the openings were more apparent, not less. Was that a rich person thing, to have less wall and more of a view? Or was it judt easier to have something lighter when you got higher up? But the roof still needed supporting… whatever the architectural justification, it was nice to find that there was even a small balcony up here too, with a view of Kugane if anyone would want such a thing. And that meant there was a door too, in that conveniently sliding Ospreyan fashion that meant she could open it from out here. 

"Um… h-hello?"

… How did you ask someone you were about to kill questions?
