Rei had been relaxing in the tavern towards the back of the main room. A place she always took as it gave her a view of the whole place for any potential threats. As she nursed a flagon of mead the rumors of thieves in her territory began to circulate towards her. THAT did not sit well with the former bandit herself. She chugged back the rest of her mead before getting up her sword hanging on her hip next to her dagger as she slid her bow and quiver onto her back. As she passed the barkeep she flicked him a gold piece before leaving through the front door.<br/><br/>As she walked up to the stables she waved to the stable boy. "Boy prepare my horse." she barked to him as two small ravens fluttered down to land on her shoulders. In her days as a bandit because of these two companions she had been called the raven outlaw. Now-a-days though that didn't matter to her not since that fateful day. During one of her return trips to her home in the mountains did the crystal appear. It shot from the flames of the shrine's tribute to the spirits of fire to land in front of her as she offered prayers.<br/><br/>As soon as she had touched it she had felt it's power suffuse her body. She felt the warmth and the strength of the fire fill her body and her own soul. As that had happened she knew what it was she needed to do. She had used it's power to slay demons in and around the surrounding areas trying to at least carve out something decent for people. It didn't take the stable boy long to saddle her horse. "Here for your troubles. " she said flicking the boy a silver shilling before mounting and heading towards where she had heard this priest was suppose to have seen the thieves themselves.
