## Clair and Edward

Shao wandered the streets of Waleldstone. The place was bigger than he thought, filled with gigantic buildings and the University of Elemental and Mystical Beings in the hills. As he walked, he saw a bandit jump down to rob a lady. As he jumped over to help, the lady pushed her hand out, knocking the man aside. The mage stopped in the middle of the street. Why had she stopped? The man smiled and lunged at the mage, who fired a magic blast. Shao ran toward them. summoning a Stone Golem. The bandit turned and flew up to a roof. The lady scrambled up crates and jumped up to the roof. Shao jumped onto the golem and rolled onto the rooftop. As he was getting up, the mage pushed him away, off the roof. Shao's golem caught him and he tried again. "Listen! I'm here to help you!" The mage turned around. "Really? What's your name?" "I am Shao, a monk of the Suratu. May I ask who you are?" The mage smiled. "I'm Clair, the Witch of Akalu. Now if you could, help me hunt that bandit down." Shao nodded. He jumped onto his golem and motioned Clair to jump on. Clair shook her head. "I can take him. Ambush him. Find a route to get in front of him." Shao nodded. As Clair ran toward the bandit, Shao dissipated his golem and snaked through the streets. He found Clair already facing off the man and jumped up behind him. "You're surrounded. Don't move, or I'll crack your skull." The man dropped his dagger. "Whatever. I'm already screwed. Kill me now." Clair flung herself at the bandit. "Clair, wait!" Shao cried, creating a Stone Wall to blocking Clair's attack. The man turned to Shao, surprised. Clair broke Shao's wall down, fuming. "Shao! Why'd you do that?" "Killing justifies nothing. We should give him to the enforcers." The man jumped backwards. "Don't! I can't do that!" Shao turned to the man. "Why? You are a heartless bandit. Your time locked up will cleanse your mind." "I still haven't found who killed my friend. I need bring justice." Clair stared at him. "You're Edward Scars?" Edward nodded. "I am not responsible for murder. He was found dead one night. They think I did it, and made me a criminal." Clair looked at the setting sun. "Join us. You don't have to rob anyone anymore. And we'll find who really killed your friend."
