The thief

> be thief anon currently at my hide out looking over my haul from a successful heist of a local Baron

>sorting all the things from the chest I mange to steal about as high as my knees and wide as my shoulders this thing contained major loot sorting out coins from jewels to golden items with jewels embed in them

>most would be afraid and try to lay low but I covered my tracks and my current base of operations is well outside of any population and being a forgot cave bandit hide out it has many hidden passages

>as I near the bottom of the chest I notice a faint green light coming from underneath some coins I move some coins coming upon a smooth green egg shaped gem giving a dim glow slowly getting brighter

>I hear a bell ringing “fuck.” I mutter I take one of my hidden passages to the entrance of the bandit cave clutching the jewel tightly

>peeking out from one of the hidden tunnel covered by a tatted banner I see the front door has been ripped off its hinges the old door laying on the floor in heaps what I see makes my heart drop

>varna standing a head taller than me wearing his maroon tunic, scale armor, and scarlet red scarf his belt loosely hanging off his hip his hooves trampling the door his head almost human like except for the snout breaking into a snarl the most strong feature other than his curved horns is his eyes pitch black except for the red dots breaking that darkness two painted lines running down underneath his eyes

>I start to slowly backing up cut slip making a sound ”come out welp!”he demands scanning the area for any movement I quickly duck my head back behind the corner as his head turns my way “I know your here just come out and I’ll just break one of your arms.” He says his sneer turning to a smile

> stand as stif as a board against the cold wall clenching my fist tightly I hear a loud snort “fine don’t come out.” He pulls a cloth from one of his pouches he showed another egg shaped jewel the only difference being a dim yellow “last chance.” He says showing a vicious smile

>after a moment of silence he start to squeeze the stone it brightening a bit as light escapes from his fingers at that moment my jewel start to a vibrate and the dim light it emits grows brighter I cover my eyes throwing the stone away hearing it vibrate against the ground

>”found you.” I look behind me the banner pushed to the side m
By Varna’s axe the green light aiming from the stone giving him a more frightening appearance he lunges at me trying to grab me I barely dodge his hand gripping air I throw dust in his face and start sprinting away the sound of hooves not far off “your only making it worse for yourself!” I hear it echo

>I make my way back to we’re my haul is maybe he just wants the gold and then he’ll leave I fill my pockets and move a fake rock tucking myself away into a cramp tunnel

> finally I hear the stomping of hooves he comes storming in seething with rage he looks at the box ”you think this will pay me off!?” He kicks the box and sending it and the separate piles  flying two hours of work down the drain

>”the barons paying 10x the amount and extra if I bring you in alive.” He looks around feeling the walls “ I was going to just beat you to a pulp but after blinding me your getting you arm broken.”

>I make my way to the opposite end of the den Varna’s in time to get rid of this bastard I hurl a stone at the back of his head he turns around staring right at me “come get me then you chav!” He smirks dropping his axe “I don’t need to kill you just break every bone in your body.”He lets out a roar and comes barreling at me

> I ready myself as he charges I manage to get a grip of his collar and hurl him into a wall using his momentum to slam his face into the wall he stops rubbing his head he turns around his face contorted in rage “you ba-.” I through purple dust in his face he start stumbling backwards rubbing his eyes “stop with the dust!” He screams

> I just stall the fight the sleeping powder doing it’s work he punches becoming sluggish and movements slowing “you fucker what did you do.” He says throwing a lazy right movement out of the way his legs slowly giving out as he stumbles around he falls to his knees panting he shifts around rubbing his thighs together

>I stare in confusion as the becomes a panting mess I back away till my back runs into the wall I begging searching my pockets I pull out a small piece of paper

>skimming through the paper looking for an explanation “6.dont mix Mitch drinks yada yada .” I finally land on what I’m looking for take a quick look my face heats up at what I see

>varna sitting on his ass
