Takahiro and Ranta were cementing their way as fiends of Konoha, the last thing that bandit would ever hear before he died was enough to choke him out in fear so that he didn't respond at all when his friend choked on his own blood.

Upon reaching out of the carriage, they'd find the alleyway they'd set themselves in was particularly grimy. This general part of town was rather dank, the walls worn and eroded moist and wet with the recent rain that went through here. The way leading back into mainstreet was particularly wide and split into a sidewalk as well for those who were just taking a walk. There were two people who had been sitting there during the time the inquisition had been happening, and those awful moans from before were heard. The first was a small, cloaked individual with a shifty eye. Before, he had been looking straight at the carriage, but as soon as Ranta and Taka both stepped out, he averted his gaze elsewhere as if not to intrude on such delicate matters.

The other was a little boy, his appearance ragged and his entire body dirty and his feet covered in muck. Despite what he had seen, his exterior showed no signs of fear and just seemed to eye the two with a corrupt curiosity. On the mark of their arrival, he turned on his heel and ran down the street.

Leading outside there were plenty of people walking around both on the sidewalk and in the streets themselves not very cautious of any coming carriages or saddled riders. If enough curiosity was aroused and a vigilant eye wasn't kept on the running boy, he'd easily disappear within the myriad of people around. There were a few shops, stands for food; the basics for anything Ranta and Takahiro might need to go around and ask while filling up before they trekked to Daimina.

They were in a land that they didn't know of, no map, no guide; nothing. They'd have to work their tongues to get information out of any of these people around. Konoha shinobi weren't very well regarded, they couldn't defend their allies like with Suna and in general they seemed plagued with bad luck. Many around here would regard it an omen just to see that symbol.
