One must agree that it is the job of every maid-servant to please the master they serve. They spend their time and energy to clean and make sustanence for their master. What, then, if their master is none but a god? Surely, such devotion as a maid-servant should have can be directed thus.
Such a maid, a young woman, was making her rounds. There certainly was a troublesome grease stain on the world. She wished she had the tools to take care of it, but lo, all around her deemed it normal. No one stopped to see how much of an abomination this was, and yet... What could she do about it? She was one woman. She was well known, if for nothing else than being a little quick tempered. Children tried to avoid her, a holy woman. She wasn't exactly a paragon of perfection.
But, still, she had a job to do. And if it meant that she could no longer be seen as human by those around her, so needed it to be.
This she thought as she bought groceries from the local market. After she picked up her groceries, she began walking back to the one place she felt safe. The chapel. As of late, strange people began to visit, but at least there she felt safe...

Ah Avaren, what a wonderful Kingdom and home. Though it was not with out its scoundrels. And that's why He was around. Ben the General of the Avaren military strode through the Market place eyes scanning its visitors and merchants carefully. Searching for signs of trouble. He was sure that the sight of him in his full set of enchanted armor. A part of him despised the enchantment but he knew it was necessary when dealing with those that cheated by using magic. So it was a necessary evil.
It was then he noticed a familiar young maiden. Tori, the two had never been formally acquainted but she was well known by just about everyone and Ben made it his buisness to know everyone. So he walked up to her and just as he was about to say something some scrawny looking boy brush past. His hand staying at Tori's side a little too long as he dodged past
"Why hello there Miss Tori" Freed said as reach out and quickly grabbed the boy by the shirt collar. "Boy I suggest you give it back." He said giving the boy a look that stopped him from even considering a protest. The boy held out a small pouch of coins. to Tori. "Now I'll give you one more chance, if I catch you stealing again you'll be spending a few nights in the dungeon." He said letting the boy go.
"So Miss Tori How are you this grand day?" He asked the priestess.

Tori grabbed her purse, and emptied about half the remaining contents into the boy's hand. "Stealing is for the weak of heart. Those who come to our church will not be refused a meal or a place to stay." Tori set her groceries upon the ground, and took the boy as he practiacally lept from the general's hand. She embraced the boy, almost maternally, and then set him free. "Do not steal. Our lord provides for his children, and all he asks in return is love. Now, promise me you will not steal."
The boy waited a moment, as if about to say something, but rushed away with the gold in his hands. "You mustn't be so hard on children. Their souls are weak. They can still be saved from themselves."
Tori looked at the man and added, "Shiroishi. I would prefer not to be addressed so informally by one I have just met. And, might I ask, what is your name?"

Sen watched as Torigave the thief some gold. She was telling him off for being mean. Which put him in a rather bad mood. He came up stopped a theirf from picking her pocket and treated her with kindness and she turned around and under-minded his authority right in front of him. He was about to say something when she asked to be called by her last name. Which he had no problems with but he was still irked.
"Well Miss Shiroishi, a boy like that should be stealing. He's young which is why I let him off with a warning. Had I not done something I would have shown weakness. He would have went and told his friends that he stole money from right under my nose. I don't want others thinking that they can steal on my watch. Also he needs to learn right from wrong before he gets beyond your god's redemption." He said trying to stay polite.
