Okay, that's further away than expected, and it also occurs to me that if he could cure himself of poison in some manner using his own abilities, why did he start looking for us first and only do this now? Why not do it immediately? So maybe he's just gearing up to fight us better and it would be best for us to just run away?

>I think we should get out of here. Fast. Let them waste their time trying to find us again.

>"Okay,"  Archer sends, "But I think there's going to be another problem, too. Constables don't like it when constables go missing, from what I've seen."

>Actually, how confident are you that the poison will drop him if we wait long enough?
>What direction would seem to provide the most immediate concealment from the limo here?

>"Very," Archer sends. "His endurance isn't anything to boast about, I'm sure."
>North, between this house and the next one one, and into the front yard. From there, you won't be able to see it and vice versa until it or you move.

>Archer's response is to scoop you up again, it's hard not to cry out in surprise, and break into a dead run to the North.
>"It's the constables I'm really worried about," Archer sends. "We wouldn't have gotten that shot without them, but once they find that one's gone. Or even worse, dead..."

>"If nothing else, we probably should be trying to find your car, too," Archer sends as she dashes up the yard and between the two houses there. There is a fend between them, you tense up for the jump.

>Looking over her shoulder, you can see the limousine burst between the two hours where you had reunited with Archer.
