The Escape

As Miss Linda and her conspirators planned their escape, everything seemed to be going well. 

The lady had already identified a small part of the mansion that was generally overlooked, as it ran through an abandoned part of the house that had by now had mostly fallen into ruin.

This happened due to the disaster of five years ago, and as it was rarely used even back then, the entire block was simply deemed too damaged and not fixed.

But the structure around there was still mostly solid, and Miss Linda vividly remembered that it led straight towards one of the house's exits situated at the eastern side.

So if Miss Linda could just get to that corridor, it would be a simple case of posing as a servant and slipping out into the wide streets. Then she would be wide and free, able to easily slip through the many cracks in the guard's checkpoints and rejoin her husband.

The only real obstacle to this plan was the guards posted at her door.
