Eadlin ran as fast as her legs could take her. She raced through the bustling festivity of the night right into the crowd, however, she could still feel the bunch of men from the whorehouse hot on her tail.
She navigated her way around a few people carrying some heavy things along the streets, narrowly escaping bumping Into them. While the loud sounds of the men's voices from behind her drifted into her ears,
"Stop that woman, she's a thief! Catch her!!!"
Perhaps they were expecting anyone at the front to intercept her escape which was why they were suddenly accusing her of being a thief, since the people at the city would most likely not let a thief get to escape.
Hearing the alarming shouts of thief from the men chasing her. A burly store owner up ahead of Eadlin quickly moved onto the road, arms wide open and ready to catch her.
