Bail
"Hey! Get back here!"
The door of the Abracapothecary Potion Shop bursts open as a little red hair girl stumbles out into the bustling street market of Irkep.
"Stop her! Stop that girl!"
Two guards in black and gold uniform bursts out from the shop as well, as they chase after the girl.
Luana was only a 17 year old Teifling Aasimar girl. On her face she has two baby devil horns just above the forehead and golden freckles. And on the right side of her face, she has a birthmark that is fiery gradient and swirls around her eye.
Luana glances back towards the guards and gives a mischievous grin as she turns the corner.
On the other side of the market rests a small little inn called the Rose Heart Inn, where the Crimson Fox party were staying.
Three of the party members were sitting at the tavern talking with the Inn keeper, Rose. Amun, who is a Teifling, skin pale grey with large black horns and the top of forehead. And a robe that matches with the seasons. Yohan, who is an Aasimar who wears a red long robe. And Calyx, who is a half-elf ranger. Their long blonde hair always in a low braided ponytail, and wears a green Elvin outfit. And resting beside Calyx is a big beautiful dire fox.
"Where did you say he was?" Calyx asks.
Next to Calyx, Fennel's ears are perked up as if listening to the conversation.
"Anders told me he was going to find the Deva's." Rose had brown hair, pale skin, and her eyes green like ivy. She generally wears a loose tunic of some bright color clinched around the waste, trousers, and apron.
Anders was a tall handsome man who wore all black. He has a blue stone that orbits around his head. And on his face, he has a scar that is the entire left side of his chin. Though despite that, he always wore a resting smirk on his face.
He wanders about the street casually as he casually slips things away from others and into his own pockets unnoticed.
He strolls pass a street where the Carpenter Guild is located as three more of the Crimson Fox member step out of a shop.
Santino, a human cleric who wears mostly brown. He wears a wide-brimmed brown hat and a green blindfold. He also carries around a shepherd's crook with a couple of feathers just below the bottom of the curve. Elora, who is a half-elf bard, with short orange hair, and is always carrying an instrument of some sort. And Ellywick, a small forest gnome. Her brown curly hair is always messy and despite her shaggy appearance, she always has a book on her indicating her love for books.
As they make their way back to the main street of the street market they hear a sudden commotion.
"Got you!" comes a male voice.
"Oh, come one!" this time coming from a little girl.
Coming around the corner, they see a little girl with red hair, in handcuffs. Behind her are two guards in black and gold uniform, and another little girl with gradient blue hair following beside them talking with the guards.
"Please, you have to understand, sir. I'm sure this is all a big misunderstanding." Zeta pleads to one of the guards.
"Listen, you're friend here did something illegal. Rules are rules." One of the guards argues. Zeta lets out a frustrated grunt as she throws her hands up.
Elora approaches Zeta, "What the heck is going on here?"
Zeta crosses her arms. "Luana got herself arrested for charming a shopkeeper." she darts a look towards Luana.
From behind, Calyx, Amun, and Yohan approaches the chaos with the same confused look.
"Oh my god. What now?" Calyx rushes ahead.
They approach to hear the second guard speaking with the group. "I'm sorry, we can't do that."
As the group continues to argue with the guards, Luana just stands there looking bored. She glances up to spot Anders leaning up against a wall in a shaded alleyway in the distance, his hands crossed. She sees Anders give her a smug "I told you" look. Luana nods back at Anders in the same sarcastic manner. Anders rolls his eyes.
Anders was about to walk away when he catches eyes with Amun who was standing off to the side. He sees Amun nod in acknowledgment in which he reciprocates. Anders gives another nod beckoning that he's leaving with another nod from Amun.
"If I may," Amun turns his focus back onto the group as he steps in, "I think we will be on our way." Amun is about to take Luana's arm.
"I don't think so." The first guard pulls Luana back. "This young lady did something illegal."
"We're aware." Zeta says annoyed.
"And it wouldn't be the first." Calyx mumbles under their breath.
"Please, sir-" Santino was about to speak when Amun jumps in.
"Are you guys familiar with the Aura Deva?" Amun asks.
The two guards glances towards each other.
"Yeah... what about them?" the first guard asks.
"We're supposed to be meeting up with a few Deva members today. You see, we have a very important business with them, and, as you know, the Deva's do not like tardiness."
The second guard looks at Amun confused, "What does that have to do with this?"
"Well, she's with us." Santino interjects.
"And?"
"We need everyone in the party for meeting up with the Deva's." Santino continues.
The first guard shakes his head as the second guard continues, "Well, that's unfortunate. We have to turn her in."
"And with the damage she's done, there is no exceptions." The first guard chimes in. "Besides, if this was actually important to you guys, you should've kept a closer eye on this one."
"To keep her from doing stupid things."
"Hey, I'm right here," Luana rolls her eyes.
"Look, we just need her for the day." Zeta insists, "After that, we'll let you guy take her for the time being."
The two guards exchange glances. After a few minutes of talking back and forth, they turn back to the group.
"Fine. But you better meet us back at the Rose Heart Inn by the end of the day. Got it?" The first guard gives Luana a hard look.
"No funny business. We'll find you again," The second guard added.
Luana gives them an innocent nod, "Yeah. Yeah."
After the guards release Luana from her cuffs they walk away.
Once the two guards are out of sight, Luana lets out a sigh chuckle, "Hey, thanks guys! Also, can I just say, perfect timing!"
The group just starts walking away with Amun, Yohan, and Ellywick already gone. Calyx gives Luana an annoyed look before turning. Zeta gives Luana a look of "I'll be talking with you later." And Santino and Elora just gives Luana a disappointed look before walking away as well.
Luana throws her hands up a bit peeved with everyone's look before following behind.
