You're thinking like an infiltrator.  Most people in the game are not  
infiltrators.  Think like a soldier.

And also think like the realm you were captured by: they'll know you  
escaped, and they'll know you'll end up in their capital.  They'll  
send the guards out to look for you, patrol the streets all around  
the capital, you won't be able to do anything, and you'll probably  
land right back in prison the moment you show your face outside of  
the sewer.

salary, we'll come work for you.' And they said, 'No.' So then we  
went to Hewlett-Packard, and they said, 'Hey, we don't need you. You  
haven't got through college yet.'"
