Vonual S'haara
Of course, a human would have been treated so badly. If I were in her place, I might have done the same thing and stolen the precious ruby. However, stealing it did not help her situation, in fact...things were worse, weren't they? She might have gotten her revenge but she had stained an entire world with her actions and that...was unjustified and wrong. I didn't know her, but I suddenly felt like I wouldn't like her very much.
Laridail was stunning. He had actually figured some of this out and had a possible idea of who the Ruby thieves were. I would have applauded the guy but I didn't want to stand out. Especially since everyone was giving him a hard time, I didn't want to have the eyes of the field on me, not if I was going to end up traveling in in a group.
My eyes flashed to the right where I watched a little group of people. One of them was a human, he was tall, princely looking with a clean face and best of all, he was nicely dressed. Next to him were a few others, an older elf lady and a Zanam girl. I finished cleaning the grotesque mud off my shoes. "Ah, so much better." I smiled at my cleanliness, threw the stick behind me and glanced at my bag.
My bag...it was gone! My father had packed food for me, water and everything from undergarments to...oh god, if someone had stole it, it would be such an embarrassing situation. I pushed myself off the ground and scanned the area, looking for anyone remotely suspicious of thievery. There, in the midst of the crowded field I made out a man, he had my bag in his hand as he quickly disappeared into the shadow of the night. I pulled the hood of my cloak over my head. Laridail's soft voice became weak as I moved away from the thicket of bodies, following the scoundrel.
When I found him, he was drinking up my precious water. "Hey!" I shrieked, pointing a finger at him. He paused, the leather bottle above his lips. I could actually hear the gulp that drowned in his throat. "You filthy..." I looked him up in down. "Man...That is mine! You're no better than Isani Tukar and Leila Runis!" I sneered.
He smiled, that fool actually smiled...and smelled. I crinkled my nose. "I'm sorry..." He placed the water back into the bag and handed it to me. I snatched it quickly and held it against my chest. "I was...thirsty," he shrugged. I felt his eyes scan me up and down which made me take a step back.
Suddenly, his stomach growled, making a noise in our silence. He was hungry...of course back in my village...when I was young I had stolen for food before, when Father was still trying his hardest to make ends meet, I did what I was so against. I broke the rules and he was no different than me. With a sigh, I reached into my bag and pulled out a wrapper with some food inside.
"Here, take this." I extended my hand to him. "If you're hungry, maybe you should just ask someone instead of stealing it. I would have given it to you if you asked."
