Ruan hesitates for a moment, then barrels down the right hallway. When it doubt, follow the crashing sounds.

"Hello! I'm Sparrow. Who are you?"

The rats introduce themselves, not very politely, and explain that they're the owners of the mansion. They want to know why Sparrow is trying to muscle in on their territory.

Ruan comes to a rickety spiral staircase and sees, on the lower floor, both Anthony and Nurse Sonia lying on the ground on top of some broken furniture.

"I'm not trying to muscle in!" objects Sparrow. "There's bad people out there... and Biggers fighting in the streets... and... it's all scary... and my invisible isn't working properly... I just wanted to find a way through to somewhere else that the Biggers can't go." he says, plaintively. "And if you show me the way to the kitchen, I'll help you raid it before I go." he adds, appealing to greed. "I bet I can get all the Biggers out of the room, even with orangey magic."

"Aughhhhhh..." Anthony groans. Sniffing, he inquires, "Is that smoke?"

Ruan proceeds - cautiously - down the rickety staircase. If he sees Sonia trying to do anything, he'll try to solve the issue by simply sitting on her.

"Okay, that's definitely smoke," Anthony states while he gets up. He tries to sling Sonia over his shoulder if she's incapacitated. "Ruan, you'll want to take point. Those guards she was talking about will probably be pretty peeved with all the waiting."

"Oh sod it," Anthony proclaims, picking up Sonia whether she's willing or not and dashing out of the building. "This game must never die!"

Ruan, Anthony, and the unconscious Sonia flee out a nearby door and find themselves in a courtyard surrounded by high walls, with two gates presumably leading to back alleys. On the other side of one gate, voices argue in whispers. On the other side of the other gate, no sounds except the muffled noises of continued rioting elsewhere in the city.

They sneer that the kitchen has been bare for quite some time, but if he can promise them a source of food, they'll lead him to safety.

"If you take me to somewhere where there's good soil, I can make an apple tree for you." offers Sparrow. "One with lots of apples."

They lead him out into the courtyard where Ruan and Anthony are. Though the yard is paved with cobblestones, many are broken or dug up, exposing rich, dark earth.

"Um... Guards or riots?" Anthony's head darts back and forth. "Uh... RIOTS!" He gets to the gate and motions for Ruan to open it.

"Thank you." says Sparrow, giving a hug to the closest rat. He points at the nearest patch of earth, and a tree begins to grow.

But Sparrow doesn't stop at the single tree he promised. One by one, he points at each other spot of rich, dark earth, and more trees grow, shooting in moments to heights well above the walls. And not just apple trees; Sparrow introduces all the variety he can. Pears, guavas, granadillas, bananas and oranges, even a grapevine up the side of the building.

Nothing is too good for helpful rats.

"You know what? Trees are not my forte. Not gonna try it with extra baggage. Ruan, would you kindly open this gate?"

Ruan shakes his head against the grogginess, then raises his arms and barrels into the gate the full force of his rather large frame behind him.

He tumbles out into a deserted alley. It's not clear where in the city they are and in what direction their inn with all their belongings and horses might be, or which way the road out of town lies.
