A dozen or so children of various ages from younger than Vena to girls older than Guts, all types who'd get really bored and fidgety during evening service, are congregated around the kitchen half of the refectory whispering and giggling and just in general being shady as they pass food around. It's after normal serving hours and this is one of the buildings that has a door that locks, but helpfully - one might say conveniently - there's an open window that smallish girls can be boosted up into, and a little light flickering inside.
Tiny Nerine of the rope tricks hauls herself out with her hands and uses them to hop out, bringing her legs up in time to land rather gracefully and is swarmed by even smaller kids. It's not light enough to be sure of bruises but there's a split across her eyebrow. She reaches into pockets and passes what appear to be bread rolls out only to see Guts and go furiously rigid. Various of the others follow her gaze, with mixed reactions.
Then Vena tumbles out the same window with much less poise as a chiming sounds from the direction of the temple, and children scatter. Vena mock-screams and hikes up her skirt to sprint scullery-ways, looking back as if someone leaving the temple will see and pursue her. If he doesn't watch it she is going to run full tilt into Guts and end up on the ground. There are some different mysterious lumps about her person, nothing that could be a sword.
