Description

Emerald asks if they’ve seen any of the guards from that night around.
 
“Nah.” Rat says, “Besides they all look mostly the same anyway.”
 
Emerald asks why they kidnapped and harassed. If the guards knew who they were then couldn’t they just have them arrested?
 
“Yes. I was wondering that myself.” Barber says softly from the armchair, “I can only come to the conclusion that the gem was something the owner of the house wasn’t supposed to have, or wasn’t supposed to reveal they had.”
 
“Who owned that house we robbed?” Ruby asks, tilting her head, “They must have been important if they could call on the guards so quickly to get to you guys. Speaking of which, how did they even find us?”
 
“I don’t know the answer to the second question, but I looked into the owners a little after our kidnapping. I assumed it was some wealthy, relatively powerless merchant by the name of Fritillary.” Barber says pulling herself up a bit on the couch, “Afterwards though I delved deeper into the name, and apparently it’s a handle used by the royal family.”
 
“Really? H-hey, you don’t suppose those guards…” Rat says, nervously to the mare.
 
“Yeah. I think those guards who kidnapped us were from the Order of the Monarch.” Barber says with a frown.
 
Emerald looks to Ruby questioningly, and she whispers angrily, “The royal guard. Bunch o’ idiots who think they are better than anyone else, just like all guards.”
 
“Our little fence friend told us how we were found, by the way.” Rat says, attempting to answer the other one of the questions Ruby asked, “I went to him after our kidnapping and saw that he and his shop had been roughed up. I guess he was interrogated until he gave up our names. Said something like one of the things we stole from him had a tracking spell on it or something. I don’t really know magic.”
 
“Well jeez, if they could put tracking spells on stuff, why didn’t they just put it on the gem? Save us all some time?” Ruby asks.
