She leaves the bar, she uses the street level exit. First she returns home collecting the large grey wolf she keeps. She takes the animal to Horus house rumaging through the wreckage for his clothes, anything that is creased and unwashed. Then she heads to the portal and pours the whisky out as she was told to.

The portal flickers to life aven as an old, three legged, half blind dog starts to greedily lick up the alcohol. Soon it stabilizes and behind it Raena sees streets the colour of blood, dark tall houses made of stone, wood and iron.... and many people moving among them.
Tieflings, humans but also a few bugbears and Hobgoblins but so far no Baatezu can be seen.

She steps through the portal and drops to one knee so her face is level with the wolf's. She rubs her nose against the animals snout a sign off affection and encouragement. She then takes whatever clothes she has found and runs it under the animals not letting it catch the scent.
"Good boy. You know what to do."

The wolf sniffs, remembering the scent then lowers his head, getting lost in his sense of smell, fixed on finding their target, his prey.
He leads Raena through the streets, sometimes getting lost, running a few circles but then taking up the scent again, dashing down another street.
Dark houses surround them and twice Raena might have been stopped by some berks guarding a barricade- but it seems their quarry was trying to avoid this ckeckpoints too.
The mountains surrounding the town look like crooked fingers reaching in the sky... or indeed ribs almost closing to form a chest and slowly it is getting darker and darker.
But then the wolf gets faster, growls and in the distance she sees a small, robed man, accompanied by a woman weearing the Red Death's uniform in the crowd.

Seeing her prey she unlimbers her bow and knocks to arrows aiming for the head and chest. She lets fly with what she hopes to be a kill shot.
//Using multishot.
Then no matter the out come she will pull the shadows around her and change position.

The arrows strike true and the man stumbles to the groung, his robes catching fire. He twitches a few times then lies still.
The mercykiller dives into the cover of a nearby column, moving quite nimbly despite the bulk of her armour. A few people follow her example, others running for cover but.... strangely the locals relax again quickly, as if they were used to something like this happening.
From a nearby checkpoint two tieflings, armed with oversized sickles, appear, questioning the bystanders, the mercykiller woman trying to slip away unnoticed.
Noone was able to find Rae.... but after talking to a passer by a tiefling shouts something and a small, stout Orc appears, leading a fiendish warhound on a leash- Raena's wolf growling.

She whistles trying to command her wolf away. Knowing they have nothing to give the warhound so it could recognize her scent as being the one they are after out of the scents of everyone in the crowd she tries to follow the mercykiller. She looks back though hoping the wolf has heeded her command and ran if not she would return to help it.

The wolf keeps its head low and trots down a street, then turning to shadow Rae from a distance, following her scent.
On the other hand the tieflings and dog handler search the place with less than moderate enthusiasm, discuss something then return to their checkpoint.
Soon afterwards the people behave as if nothing has ever happened.
Not so the Mercykiller. She runs down a street, trying to reach a bar at the end, always looking over her shoulder, almost getting into a brawl as she collides with two bugbears. She is afraid- Raena can see that, can almost smell that.
