Fenn sighed. "Gareth can rot for all I care, but I'm just trying to not get caught up in a war." Fenn said. Thanks for that... Fenn thought. "Anyways, I guess I'll just go and rest for a while." He said.

Outside the tavern, they spotted a hume dressed in strange cloth armor. He had a keffiyah and turben covering his face and head, and when he looked at the two his eyes glowed like those of a beast...

Alicia only ignored the hume, walking past him as if he was just another person on the streets. She only walked toward her mog house.

Fenn, meanwhile, followed Alicia. Right... Just gotta find the reserve quarters once I get there and... Oh boy, this will be fun. Just like old times at the academy.

"Why are you following me, Fenn?" Alicia growled. "Shouldn't you rest in your own place? Or even better, break your friend out?"

"I don't know where the residential area is... And Gareth is NOT my friend." Fenn said. "You're going there, so I'm following."

"Actually my home is up north. The residential area... is in North San D'Oria. My home is in South. There you go, now make your way over there." Alicia flipped her hand.

Gareth sat strapped to a chair in the interrogation room. "You don't think you'll actually get me to talk, do you?" He had masqueraded as an agent of Windurst, dropping subtle hints as to his supposed intentions.

"Yes, we believe you are indeed going to talk. So simply... talk. No harm will come of this!" An interrogator simply responded, prancing back and forth.

"You people of all should know this: Never give up your country's secrets. I will die for the Federation if need be, but I will never talk!" Gareth let out a howling cackle, like that of a man gone insane. In his mind, everything was going according to plan...

"So... how did Mira know you anyway? Wasn't she connected to you in some way?" The interrogator next asked.

"Yeah, well I haven't exactly ever been here, could you at least show me the way?" Fenn asked politely.

"No." Alicia folded her arms. "Go away."

"Please?"

"Why? So I can do you a personal favor? Um... no."

"Think of it as payment for me letting you use my bed."

"I don't owe you anything. You saved me. It was your choice, not mine. Don't push this one me." Alicia grunted. "Besides if you really want me to show you the way, you better come up with the ways to be apologetic and a suck up." She continued on.

"Actually, Gareth demanded it, not me." Fenn said. "Too lazy to use his own, I suppose."

"Even more so. If anything, I owe Gareth. Now go away. I already told you where to go. You don't need me to guide you, you big baby." Alicia managed to find her moghouse, opening the door and slamming it.

"Please?" Fenn asked the door. It was hard to tell if he was mocking or not. "You're the only person I can rely on here."

"Bastokan Consulate will help!" She shouted from the door. "Why are you being so persistent!?" She then reached for her drawer, pulling an envelope, and slipped it through the door.

"A map of San D'Oria. You can't be lost now. Go away."

Fenn smiled. "Thank you." He said, in a kind tone.

"I was in love with her, not that it's any of your concern. I hated to decieve her, but it was for the Federation's good." Gareth closed his eyes, trying not to think of what Mira would say if she saw him now.

"Heh... if only you weren't so easy to guess. Aren't you part of Bastok?" The interrogator asked.

"You got my cover. I've been posing as an agent of Bastok since I graduated from the academy, instructed by the Federation to sow the seeds of disorder in Bastokan and San d'Orian territory. The civil strife would force the respective governments to turn their eyes away from Windurst, which would then marshall its forces and conquer Vana'diel in one fell swoop." Gareth let out a laugh as he explained his lie. He'd been rehearsing it in his head since the interrogation began, honing the words to perfection.

"Ha... well looks like we're going to have to pay a visit to Windurst... you're going back to the cells, buddy." The interrogator finished as a couple of royal knights picked him up. "Don't expect to get out of this alive."

As the knights began escorting him out Gareth let out a crazed laugh. "They'll deny everything. I'm a top secret agent, one that the public of Windurst doesn't even know exists anymore. This is the only time I've ever been caught. Hahahaha!"

"Get the fool into this cell. I'm sure you can't wait to experience execution!!" The man laughed haughtily as the soldiers threw Gareth back into the cell.

Once the guards had gone out of earshot, Gareth let out one more soft cackle. "Mira... If only you could see me now. This time it's my turn to protect what we all loved."
