Joining the Heralds was a step out of the slums and into the up and up. Gold
had already started to pour in from many investments all over Thera. Thieves
and assassins were already starting to take notice. Sokde's skill with a pen
had never been so fast or so clean, and the same could be said of her
pickpocketing. Bags and girdles were being filled from adventuring, as well
as the pouch of more than one groupmate. One thief who will never understand
why a Necromancer, four ranks her junior, would carry nearly fifty gold on
his person. He didn't even catch notice of the theft once, and today was
joined by the pickpocket again in learning. If Assassins can move more lighty
on their feet with the lightness in their things, certainly it can be said
that the Necromancer was just be lightened to better defend himself.

Note to self. The Assassin and Necromancer I've traveled with since rank
seven just have now discovered that I am not of a dark heart as the two of
them are. Quite strange that it was never noticed and then caused such a
stir. Was it my being a Herald, or my blackjacking one of them when they
tried to overpower and outman an Elf? Mmm, I wonder. But, it was neither, and
it was only the Assassin using magical detection and happening to run into
me. Today, my mood if baffled and dazed... and also quite amused.
