Your arrival at Brinebourne is productive! You and your party rent out a room, you head off on a side adventure to help out some of the townsfolks, and you are eager to meet King Lockhart to show him the note about some person hiring the giant to steal from him. You feel good about yourself, it was a day well spent and you're pleased that you and your party are beginning to make a name for yourselves as a capable adventuring party.
You can nearly smell the prize money now. Ten thousand gold pieces. All you have to do is track down the real thief and retrieve the object for the King.
Your two party members are waiting for you off to the side of the town square. You rejoin with them as well as the other six parties.
"Time to meet the King and get a move on already." you hear crowsitter Murder Bunny say as he removes the bird from its covered cage and prepares to feed it.
Suddenly, a gasp and a scream ring out in succession.
"THERE! THE THIEF" a voice calls out.
A hand is outstretched in the crowd, causing all heads to snap and follow it with their eyes. The gloved finger is pointed at a member of your group.
Murder Bunny.
"IT WAS HIM! HE STOLE IT! HE STOLE THE KING'S CROW!"
You watch as a confused Murder Bunny attempts to conceal the crow behind his back, causing it to flap its wings violently and caw out.
A dozen members of the Kingsguard descend on your position quickly. Murder Bunny makes things worse by swinging his mace around aggressively, forcing them to back off.
But the guards pounce. Murder Bunny is lost in a heap of armed guards as the rest of you try to push past them to come to his aid. Townsfolk yell and scatter in the scuffle as more guards run over and begin to pin any of you down who stand in the way.
One guard retrieves the crow as a bloodied and unconscious Murder Bunny is dragged out of the pile and placed in shackles.
Guards swarm the rest of you, guilty by association until further notice. One by one, you watch as your friends are pinned to the cold cobblestone and placed in chains.
When your turn comes, you peer through the crowd at the finger that sold out Murder Bunny. As your eyes focus, the accuser is unmistakable.
