Jin heard her name being called, and she was trying to help the lady Alice, who was limping, to the direction of the village. She tilted her head, wondering why Korlash sounded so panicked. "What is wrong now..." She muttered under her breath. "I helped him, and he yells. Not even to say thank you very loud." She moved to continue, but Alice's resistance stopped her in her tracks. "Ah!" She looked back in confusion. "Lady, what is wrong?"

"The game is up, child." Alice reached into her hair and removed an elegant looking pin with an eerie green jewel on it. Without warning, she drove the pin into Jin's arm, hard enough to leave it half an inch in the muscle.

Jin screamed, more out of surprise than pain. "AAAGH! What- why-"

"That filthy elf would have ruined the surprise, so I must move things forward." She kneed Jin in the ribs, and the girl coughed as the pain hit.

She didn't know the word for traitor, but she knew that this woman had tricked her for some reason. Pushing through the pain, she sliced at Alice's arm, her dagger going through cloth and the thin mail underneath until it was nearly stick. She brought it back just in time, and Alice shoved her hard to the ground.

"You bitch! You unnatural little whore! You made me bleed!" Alice's eyes were suddenly too wide with a fearsome rage. "...I hope you die soon, because I will make you suffer if we meet next." She fled, clutching her arm and running away with surprising speed.

Jin got to her feet, with her ribs hurting and a gold pin with a clear jewel sticking out of her hand.
