Mimsy was smiling a most cheerful expression, much like a puppy who did a good job. He said as he carried the sack under his hands, cradling it, as he walked out of the alley, and into the streets proper again. As Mimsy began heading closer to the edge of town, he checked from side to side, and behind. He did not notice the Gnome that was trailing him, because Gnomes were short, and Mimsy was a large burly man. And all the other citizens of Estermere were dealing with their own activities. Though unlike when he was kidnapping Elric out completely in the open, they weren't looking at him in a worried fashion, or in a confused fashion. Mimsy thought as the grin occurred on his face. And as he was passing by, he noticed another Guardsman, Guardsman Ferris who whistled towards him."Hey! Apparently some people say you were taking Elric, or something? You match the description." Ferris inquired, as he reached towards his shortsword. Mimsy shook his head, "Oh no, this is a sack of potatoes." The inside of the sack began squirming, Elric must have regained consciousness. "MAGIC Potatoes." Mimsy said as peered to the nearby landscape out of the town, and as the sack fell towards the ground as Mimsy was distracted by how close he was to success. [/quote]

Tirarian grabbed her crossbow and from her cart, as well as tranquilliser bolts. Chances are he couldn't get past that checkpoint without causing a lot of kerfuffle and without being killed. She wound up the weapon as he approached and under-armed it as he started talking. The sack dropped the ground at the same time a soft 'thunk' landed in his right buttock, the perfect place for such a shot, though it landing there was more by chance than design. She walked up to the scene and tipped her hat to the guard. 
"Morning guard, I suppose this makes us even."
Without waiting for a reply nimble gnome hands moved over the knot in the bag to reveal a wide eyed Elric, probably due to the light. After all, nothing surprised Elric.
"And no, guardsmen. You can't have this thug. I think Elric might want to have a word with him first, as a surgeon he is quite... qualified. If you ask the captain I'm sure he will agree, if not come find us later. You win either way." She turned her attention to Elric "Are you alright?"
