This mysterious man took a bar into either hand and with a stone-cracking noise he pulled them apart with ease. He stepped sideways through the opening and then bent them back as best he could.
"That's the plan," he whispered as he went to the front of Aaron's cell and did the same. "Now, you must leave this place."
"Hey, hey," said the first man. "You're gonna leave us here? Get over here and free me!"
"Take the exit behind me, and when you get to the second corner, look for a metal grating on the ground. Enter the dry sewers and follow the path eastward. Take no turns, left or right, for you will get lost and die. Do you understand?"
"Hey! Let us out! Open the cages!" The men began to create quite a noise as they argued and looked for things to throw.
"Do not worry about me, Aaron. Your fate lies elsewhere. Now, run!"

Aaron eased through the gap in the bars. "Not without my bow, where would they have put it?" He asked quickly his tone implying that the weapon was important to him in some way. Some fighters can be particular about their weapons, but it would seem Aaron is particularly so.
He started for the indicated exit, pausing a moment, "I'm all turned around. Which way is North?" and as he stepped through he found a door, not a particularly strong one, and shouldered it open. Inside was his bow and other gear, how convenient.

"The path you're following will head east, so when you drop down, go the way the corridor was," the man said, now heading for the other exit as the prisoners began to throw anything they could find at him. The clanking of footsteps down stairs echoed from above them as soldiers came to investigate the noise.

Aaron nodded, even if the strange man that could bend cell doors didn't see it. "My Thanks." He said quickly then headed down the passage until he found the grate in the floor.
It took him a minute or two to tug it out and before he dropped down into the sewer he checked that he was facing the way he had been when he walked along the passage it's self. 'Keep heading east, don't turn right or left' He told himself, repeating it almost like a mantra.

[Escape is imminent. Unless you have anything else to do, this RP is now over. You've been given a taste of a portion of the main plot. What you do with it is up to you]
