[QUOTE="loxmyth, post: 748740, member: 1255"] [i]Argent: yes, the cart is still moving. Not for long though - see below.[/i] [i][b]~ The streets of Crowngate[/b][/i] Thinking quickly, Forge jams his staff into the slot on the box, and with a grunt, manages to shift the mechanism inside. With the sound of metal grinding against metal, the cart shudders and finally comes to a stop - moments from collision with a nearby building. The force of momentum threw some of the bags off the back of the cart and onto the dwarf Enchanter in a cloud of flour and grain. Linda scanned the crowd, and saw two halflings pushing throught to come running towards the cart. They stopped however, when Slash padded into their path, growling threateningly. Both came to a halt and simultaneously threw up their hands as if to calm the wolf. "Nice doggie..." the first one, a rather plump halfling with silver curled mustache and wide-brimmed hat tried. "Ah don't think it's workin'," the other, a ruddy-skinned blond informed his companion, his blue eyes locked on the lupine form before them. [i][b]~ Behind Philander's Clockwork, Rooksbridge[/b][/i] The young boy before James seemed to wilt under his suspicious gaze. He looked to Larina, hoping she would be more sympathetic "Beggin' yer pardon, ma'am, but I ain't steal nothin' from these ruffians," he squeaked, and was nearly immediately shouted down by the others. "He got summar bread, and a pouch with ar money, the li'l demon!" the lead ruffian said, brushing a grimy dark lock out of his face. The others behind him nodded or gave verbal agreement. "I swear on all that's holy, this stuff's mine!" the young boy insists, clutching at his pockets protectively. [/QUOTE]
