As the two boys traverse the inner working of the inner district bustling with people covered with expensive coats, they finally they reached the street in which the Captain of the Guard house stood. The house resembles the other houses surrounding it. It is a sturdy two story building made out of high quality wood and stone without the least bit of imagination, the only difference is that is has two guards standing in front of its main door.

"So what's our plan?" Kit asked. "Well first we need a secure place where no or at least few people go" El replied. "There's an alley 20 feet away from here, we should go there" Kit answered pointing at the direction of the alley. The two immediately go towards the said location, Kit inspected the area from the largest opening to the tiniest crack, no stone unturned until he knows it is safe. "Ok so here is our plan, I will summon my familiar and use its senses to get the dagger while you guard my body" El explains. "Wait, wait, wait, I'm on guard duty? That’s boring" Kit declined.  "Do you want me to help you or not?" El snapped. "Fine, but next time let's do it cooler" Kit agreed. "Nope there will be no next time, do you understand me Kit?" El refuted. "Fine, do what your gonna do, I'll guard your body" Kit uttered.

Kit sees El take out a charcoal from his satchel and begins to draw a magic circle in the ground, he then takes out a brass brazier and places it in the middle of the magic circle right after that. He then burns incense and some magical herbs inside the brazier in addition to chanting a spell. Out of the brazier a magical smoke was produced and on that smoke a barn owl appears and starts stretching its broad brown wings. "I thought you're familiar was a cat?" Kit said with a confuse face. "The familiar spell can change form, if you want it to change that is" El answered. "Can you make it like a tiger?" Kit asked with enthusiasm. "Unfortunately no, it's not a powerful spell, anyway could you do your job please" El replied with annoyed look. "I am doing my job, c'mon do your thing and get my dagger, second window at the second floor" Kit responded.

El decided to ignore Kit's jest and hold his now owl familiar, he then focuses and aligns his senses with his familiar. After a few seconds, El let's go of the owl and it begins to fly towards the window that Kit pointed out. El now can see through his familiar's eyes but the process renders his body blind and void of other senses.

The owl flies up and finally reaches the window and perches at the edge of it. El surveys across the room. The room is pretty normal for his expectation of the Captain of the Guards, it has a two-person bed, not too grand and not too shabby, a wooden closet which is currently closed and a table with a mirror attached to it on what looks like it’s for the wife only.

"Not even a bookshelf really?" El mutters, which startles Kit losing his focus on his task even dropping a dagger on the ground that he was currently playing with. "What? What bookshelf?" Kit replied. El did not hear Kit's question due to his link with his familiar and proceeded to command his familiar telepathically to go inside the room to cover more area for his search. After a few minutes of flying across the room searching for the dagger, he finally sees its location which is under the bed partially covered by a small pillow. As the owl grabs the dagger and tries to lift it to the air, El hears voices talking and is about to go to the second floor, it peaks El's curiosity, and he decides to eavesdrop.

"How today's duty love?" Said by a soothing female voice that is so calming it can disarm any angry man. "Only bad news, we discovered that the Triad is using orphans" Answered by an intimidating deep male voice worthy of a Captain's title. “Orphans? What for?" The woman asked. "It's not yet confirmed but we are checking on it, however, my guess is that they want to infiltrate the Inner Walls and use the orphans to deliver illegal drugs or worse kidnap children" the captain replied. "That's horrible! The Triad know no bounds!" the woman said. "By the way what did you do today?" the captain asked. With that sentence El suddenly remembered Kit's carnal deed with the Captain's wife and quickly commands his familiar to fly back to their location. The owl quickly flaps its wings and brings the dagger out of the house and flies across the night sky of the city towards the abandoned alley where his master waits his return.

The Triad is an infamously known criminal organization in the capital, they are known to smuggle illegal drugs, having trade with the slave market, ferrying illegal migrants into the city and kidnapping rich children in which they ransom for the highest price. They became infamous because even though they are widely known to the public they are hard to incarcerate since they have some connection to some higher corrupt officials.
