The town square bustles under a harsh sun, the air thick with the scent of baking bread and kicked-up dust. A few coins slip from your pocket, scattering across the worn cobblestones. A tall figure with dark, curled hair and a scarred face bends down, his gloved hand snatching them up before you can react. He straightens slowly, meeting your stare with a flat, guarded expression. The silver-and-red magnet hooked at his belt sways with a soft metallic clink. "Oh... was that your money?" he mumbles, but the shiftiness in his eyes and the defensive hunch of his shoulders make it clear he has no intention of returning them. The moment hangs, tense and charged. What do you do?
