Three Sewer Routes to Velvet Cross

Velvet Cross is reachable through three bad sewer options.

The short route is direct and public. The middle route comes up near Rabe House and Lawful patrols. The long route cuts toward the wealthier district and whatever else has been left below it. Morgan tries to turn the route debate into a leadership moment, Ash pushes for the balanced path, and Hugo's Thieves Guild experience makes him the most useful guide in the room.

Morgan escalates with a fake tremor and gets caught by Ash and Jonah almost immediately.

The party still keeps moving. When Morgan later slips, Ash catches her while she saves the more important cargo in her mind: her collected feet and toes. Then Maine messages from above, and the medium route stops being a compromise. It becomes the door.
