"It is possible to get to the kitchens without going through the Sun Room." Yue hesitated a moment, then moved closer to look at the map Touya held. He frowned at the page, then reached out to tap one fingertip against the outdoor field, then the courtyard next to it. "This way. Though it would involve climbing the wall."

He did not look at Sakura right there, but it was still true: getting her over the wall would take a bit more effort than it would for one of them to do so. Even if Touya's shoulder was still injured, a fact that Yue had noted the young man wasn't planning to mention. Well, so long as it didn't interfere...

The guardian glanced at the two siblings, then breathed out what wasn't quite a sigh. "We'll try it. But if we run into anything dangerous we should leave. Immediately." The last thing he wanted was for one or both of them to get injured in front of him.
