It had been a plan Mio had been writing up and plotting meticulously for a while. She had a lot of things already worked out, guard patrols, people who would be taking shifts, where they could be found and frequented. The layout of the building, entrances and escape routes, tools and resources available. She also looked deeply into other things, such as the owner of the target location, the identity of the one she was trying to find, as well as the one that would be most likely to interfere with her efforts. Mio had taken a few days to look into all of these things one way or another.
She had decided a time, a route, and a method of sabotaging the guards that would be on staff easily enough. With rogue arts, she made a few of them sick, and others she simply put back to sleep in their beds to ensure they wouldn't show up. Replacements would not only be hard to come by, but difficult to find any veteran staff. Unfortunately there was one that she couldn't take out ahead of time, a big name among the locals as a hard headed veteran guard but he could be dealt with inside. All Mio needed now was a partner and to wait, and she had the partner when she found Selene finally approach.
Waving the girl closer, Mio spread out her little hastily drawn map. It was a little too artistically done rather then functionally but Mio at least made it functional enough to properly illustrate their objective as she tried to share her plan. "We'll enter through this well here, the water way connects to the main building's basement water well. That will help us stay out of sight of the guards on the top. I took care of a lot of the guards before they showed up for work today so we need to make sure that we get in and out while they're still out of it and nobody thinks to replace them." Mio began to explain using a finger to describe their direction and where they would head. "From there, we need to go into the depths where they keep the bad prisoners, most of them are like the worst of the worst but it's also where they hide important people. We're going to be looking for this one." She spoke, placing down a second sheet of paper that looked as if it had been torn from a book. It featured another hand drawn picture, one of an older man with his hair line nearly completely receded, wild bushy eyebrows and a heavy beard and moustache. He looked like an old crazy inventor but Mio knew his identity as an aging military official well.
"Getting there should be easy... but we'll have to fight this guy. They call him 'Iron Hammer' he's one of the better guards in the place, but he shouldn't have much help." She explained once again laying down another page of a grizzled fighter, he looked like a classic mercenary, lots of scars around the face but with a strange hair cut that made him seem as if he had a flat head on top. He would be the dangerous guard to look out for. "I think that's it though... The plan is, we go in there, take care of this guy-- try not to kill him, then find this prisoner, ask him a few questions, and get out." She spoke nodding firmly.
