Collin looked at Miles for a moment and smirked, "The stables of course. There around the back of the castle to the east. Its a bit of a risk but all the entrances to the front of the castle are well guarded. If we take two of the horses towards the hunting grounds there is an entrance that hasn't been used in many a moon that we should be able to get through." he didn't explain the real need for the horses for the moment, instead just creeped around the easter side of the castle careful to peek around the corners before charging around them. It was a slow progress, but it was a steady one.

When they reached the far south east corner of the building Collin sighed in relief and wiped his brow with his hand. They were not out of danger yet, but the guards were less likely to think that he would go further into the grounds rather then out, so the bulk of them would be concentrated near the front entrances. Collin pointed to a building some three hundred feet away from them, though the space between was open feild. "We need to make it to that building" he said with a definitive air, "I'm gonna make a dash for it, I'll meet you there."

He took a deep breath before darting off in the direction of the stable. He knew that the white haired male was faster then he was and there was a high likelyhood hat he had reached the stables before Collin did. Collin also knew that the stables were a safe point to hide in for the moment. So when he reached them, he then turned to the other, "Keep watch at the door while I ready the horses, its gonna be a bit of a bumpy ride elsewise"

He set to work expertly saddling up his own horse, which despite the fact that there were stable boys to do such things for him, he had always insisted on doing himself. It didn't take him long to saddle up his own horse Darktail, but then he paused for a moment trying to deside which horse to give to Miles, Stallion was faster, but buttercup was easier. In the end he went with his gut in hopes that the silver haired stranger could ride well and saddled up stallion.

He took a moment to watch the back of the stranger while pretending to finish saddling the chestnust stallion. He had no idea why, and the thought ran through his head that he was both idiotic and stupid and liable to get himself killed on this crazy escape route, but he trusted the man. At last he finally spoke again while handing out the reighns to miles, "Hop on, and get ready to book it"
