Austin watched her scoop up the gem quickly, appraising it from what he had seen of it mentally. It was a fair sized gem, well cut. He stepped forward, amused as she boasted about skills he wasn't sure she had. Of course there was a fair chance that she was secretly a master of combat. But she was young, like him, and a bit too loud. But appearances were deceiving. Was he not one such case, he thought. Pushing his hair back, happily nodding to her thanks.<strong> " A pleasure then, Miss Raqueal."</strong>Then she kicked the thugs and he laughed.<br/><br/>He easily side stepped her question and offer of the rest of the gold. As if she had a say as to what he would take.<strong>"It is rather brave of you to risk such for the gem, Miss. Is your family not worried about you?"</strong>He bent and began bagging the gold. His satchel was going to be heavy for a while, but it was worth. No reason to leave this here for more scavengers to find. Carrying all he could- which was most of it- he began to search the bodies of Boyce and his small gang of misfits.<strong>"You should probably return. I would think they would miss a light such as yourself."</strong><br/><br/>Of course, they were carrying nothing. Their weapons of cheaper make then his, their clothes in tatters. Nowhere to hide anything of importance on any of them. Straightening from the last one he turned back to Raqueal fully and smiled.
