The lane bursts apart as black water tears up through cracked stone and drain grates. Goblan is slammed sideways into the flood, rain, silt, and splintered boards all rolling together in a choking rush.
The City Magistrate
Seize him! The warrant, do not lose the warrant!
The Magistrate skids on slick cobbles, one hand clawing for the paper as it flaps in the current. The Sergeant braces against a wall, boots scraping, trying to keep the exit closed while the torrent heaves under him.
The Mercenary Sergeant
Goblan, stand down. This ends cleanly if you stop fighting.
Goblan catches a jutting beam and twists free for a breath, but the surge yanks him onward into a darker throat beneath the street. Broken crates spin past him, and the sound of the lane fades behind the roaring water.
He bursts out into a flooded culvert, a round chamber of brick and iron where runoff hammers down from above. Faint torchlight leaks from a side arch ahead, and the current drags him straight toward it.

Escape the flooded culvert
“I try to use current for my favor to escape. If I can use this current I can go to the location”
