Wander watched it escalate from afar. The drinking, the appraising gazes, a healthy dose of bitter, drunken self depreciation and, last but not least, a great big angry Roe all made for a nice distraction. And here Wander thought she'd have to stir up trouble on her own.
Most of the other cons, thieves, and pickpockets stayed away from the Sands-- an adventurer's bar often made for angry marks who oh so loved to take things into their own hands. For Wander, it was that very independent pride that made these merc types such easy pickings. Kill a few beasts in the wilds and people think they're kings of their own destinies, but that doesn't stop them from crowding around an escalating fight like everybody else.
But now, it was time for fishing, not idle musings. Wander pushes her way toward the crowd. Half-drunken men and women were an almost insultingly easy lift, more so when standing shoulder to shoulder. More so still with an angry, loudmouth Roegadyn mere fulms away. Wander continues to feign attempts to get a closer look at the action, as her hands skillfully relieve each patron of their wallets and purses. Well, perhaps not him;Â he did look a touch scary. And, well, maybe not her either; Wander wasn't sure she'd outrun that one.
