			I had never seen the King so enraged. While he is always a generally unpleasant man even on the best of days, he now seemed a raving tyrant. Servants cowered in the halls when he passed. The Royal Guard, including the brave Ferrans, took a step back when he neared. He even took to personally torturing prisoners in the pits.

			----

			The King was convinced that the thief was some rebel spy. Some citizen who had long been with us - perhaps even a member of our own guard - whose true allegiance was to the Stag of Bellenesse. But as the thefts continued, I grew less sure of this supposition. For I began to notice a pattern to the thefts. Every last trinket that went missing - from the belt to the King's personal dining ware - had one thing in common: it was shiny.

			----

			This thief was no enemy of the state. This thief had no designs on the King's life. This thief was nothing more than a mindless collector of sparkling baubles. I immediately suspected the Drudges who inhabit the surrounding forests, but soon discounted them as unlikely suspects. They lacked the subtlety and skill of this thief. No, this was something different. Something I had not yet encountered.
