As he made his way through the city Andrezi couldn't help but feel them watching him. They were all watching, even the children would stop what they were doing to move out of the way and stare at the old kellid woman who only had one eye and walked with a hunched back and a bad limp. Andrezi allowed a small smile to himself, this was one of his best disguises and from the expressions of disgust on the people he passed he was sure he would not be followed this time. His path took him the better part of the day, but as he arrived at the now ruined manor he could tell that the looters had picked through what remained of his own families home. Most of what was left had been drug out of the ruins to the lawns on the front and sides.
Andrezi passed by all this with a purpose and that was what must have given him away. Standing in the shadows of the ruined foyer was a familiar halfling.
" I knew you would come back" he said with a devilish smile. Those were the only words said between the two cousins. As the fight began a crowd gathered to watch an old one eyed woman fight a halfling in the ruins of some old money estate.
