Last Alchemist
You discreetly drop a tiny vial of alchemical powder on the ground, triggering a loud crack and a plume of smoke. As the guards rush to inspect the disturbance, you quietly make your way past the gates without drawing attention.Faking a misstep, you drop a vial that bursts open at the guards' feet, releasing a dense sleeping gas. As they slump to the ground, you quickly move them out of sight and proceed through the now-unguarded entrance.You retrieve a shimmering potion from your bag, describing it as a legendary tonic said to boost endurance and courage. Holding it up enticingly, you persuade the guards to accept it as a token of goodwill in exchange for granting you entry.With an elaborate gesture, you praise the superior craftsmanship of your exotic goods, focusing on your "invigorating tea" and offering the guards a free sample. The tea, carefully infused with a sleeping agent, is your subtle method to gain their trust and safe passage.
