Which was pretty surprising, honestly. When he'd asked if he could go, he'd thought for sure that they would say no. But for whatever reason, they hadn't.

True, he'd technically only said that he wanted to go there in order to gather more information about this Atreyan spy, not to break him out single-handedly.

But that had been mostly bullshit, and they probably knew it. If it genuinely looked too difficult to bust him out, then yeah, Raul wouldn't risk it.

He had a feeling that it would look quite doable, though. Especially with Invisibility on his side.

All things considered, these rings were pretty ridiculous, but they did have their limitations. They couldn't cover nearly as much area as the living aberrations at Dunehall could. Those bastards had been able to cloak dozens of people each, whereas these rings could scarcely go beyond his own body. If he wasn't touching it, then he probably couldn't make it invisible, and if the object in question was large enough, touching it didn't matter.

That was one of the reasons he was making this trip on foot. Cloaking an entire car was too difficult, and even if it wasn't, the noise it made would still be too much of a problem when trying to make it through checkpoints like this one.

His primary concern, therefore, was not if he would be able to break the spy out of prison. Rather, it was how he would be able to get the guy all the way back to Ridgemark. Even for him, an undead servant, making this trip on foot was pretty rough. He wasn't sure how well a non-servant would be able to manage it, even with his help.

He could worry about that later, though.
