Hey, heard about that new merchant who keeps a gold stash in his warehouse. Thought we could pull something together.

Sure thing, just gotta know the guard shifts, the warehouse layout, and a way to slip in and out without a trace. We can use the back alley and the old cistern that runs below the docks. If we pick the right night, we’ll have the whole gold in our pockets and the guard’s clueless. I’ll map it out and keep a low profile—no one notices a shadow that quick.

Guard shift runs 6–14 and then 14–2, so the 14–2 window is the sweet spot. The warehouse itself has three levels; the main entrance is east, but it’s always on the watch list. The west side back door is the only way in that’s not covered by the watch. The cistern below the docks is a good hide‑out, but the night patrol runs a loop through the alley every hour, so you’ll need a quick escape plan—maybe the rope at the dock or a smoke bomb. Make sure you’ve got a lockpick set ready and a backup route. Stick to the 2–4am shift, keep quiet, and you’ll come out with the gold and no trace.

Got it, lockpick in hand, rope at the dock, smoke bomb ready. We hit the back door when the guard’s on his 14–2 shift, slip in, grab the gold, use the cistern as a hideout, and drop the smoke on the patrol. Then jump the rope over the rail and vanish by 4am. No one’ll see a shadow that fast. Let's move.

Sounds solid. Just remember the guard on that shift isn’t the type to take a smoke bomb as a courtesy. Keep your head down, watch the patrol’s timing, and if it feels too tight, a quick exit to the cistern will buy you enough time. I’ll be here on the docks, ready to pick up the coin when you’re out. Stay quiet.
