Gra'akast rooftops

With more and more people returning home it became increasingly difficult to use the rooftops to make his way back to the centre of the city.

Gra'akast was not like Ostiarium or Helian cities. Roof tops were flat, not slanted with tiles. The top areas of houses were actually living accomdations like rooftops and it would become increasingly difficult for Gonyaul to travel this way without being detected.

Plus he was was sure people would not appreciate strangers just crashing into their quarters. Buildings around the centre of the town were less abandoned so it became increasingly difficult to plot a way to avoid being seen.

If he wanted to search for Voah in the massive city he would eventually have to take to the streets again.
