“Don’t tell the guild anything about this!” Vincent begged as he knelt and banged his on the ground. Everyone was taken by surprise. “Why, what’s in for us?” Nita said. Vincent lifted his head, blood running down his forehead. “Because, if you do, I’m ratting all of us for trespassing.”. Marissa was the first one to be uncomfortable at the idea of keeping this secret. “No way! I don’t wanna get in trouble with the guild!” she said. “How about I help you instead if you help me find it.” Vincent suggested. “I don’t know…” she said. “C’mon you’ve gotten to know the guild by now. It took like twenty of them to catch four of us. How many more weeks do you wanna be away from home?” he said. Marissa reluctantly agreed to the plan. “Fine, fine! I won’t tell them! But you best not rob a corpse or anything like that!” She said.
