"Certainly." She says, sharing the information she collected from her fly overs. [http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/sh...49#post3575049 and onward.]
"What's your skill set like? Disguises? Breaking in places?"

"Breaking in?! Do I look like a common thug to you? There's no breaking when I do it, I can assure you."
What the world thinks the most valuable exhibition of the Dao is to be found in books. But books are only a collection of words. Words have what is valuable in them - what is valuable in words is the ideas they convey. But those ideas are a sequence of something else - and what that something else is cannot be conveyed by words. When the world, because of the value which it attaches to words, commits them to books, that for which it so values them may not deserve to be valued - because that which it values is not what is really valuable. Thus it is that what we look at and can see is (only) the outward form and colour, and what we listen to and can hear is (only) names and sounds. Alas! that men of the world should think that form and colour, name and sound, should be sufficient to give them the real nature of the Dao. The form and colour, the name and sound, are certainly not sufficient to convey its real nature; and so it is that 'the wise do not speak and those who do speak are not wise.' How should the world know that real nature?

"Oh, my apologies for not using the correct terminology. I've been too busy learning my magic stuff. When's the best time for you, and what do you need? Hopefully the information helps."

"Alright, not 'almost killed', but 'almost captured', since I am fairly sure her escort would have overpowered you and knocked you unconscious if you had stayed a moment longer. Is there anything I can do to help? I appear to be surplus to requirements at the moment."

"Night's usually the best time to work, for obvious reasons. It'd be better if I can lay eyes on it first. Do you know if they let just anyone in during the day?"
What the world thinks the most valuable exhibition of the Dao is to be found in books. But books are only a collection of words. Words have what is valuable in them - what is valuable in words is the ideas they convey. But those ideas are a sequence of something else - and what that something else is cannot be conveyed by words.

"To the public wing, yes. The one we're interested in is probably the Master's wing, here." She points at her map

Cade studies the map. "That would be the obvious choice. How devious is this Shoulin, anyway?"

"...Pretty devious." Keyleth says, "When you think you're the law you can justify quite a lot."

"I suppose I could act as a lookout for Cade, as I have keen eyesight and can cast message to stealthily communicate an imminent danger to him. Although, would the magical aspect of using message make me detectable to an enemy caster?"
