Leon ripped the fallen tarp from the boy's body, and let the boy fall to the ground. With enough force to wind him, Leon pinned the boy with his foot. Leon help the tarp out in front of him and dutifully wound it into a crude cloth rope. Taking the boy's arms and legs in hand, Leon hogtied him and tied the rope taut.

Criminal duly subdued, Leon hooked his arm around the boy's midsection and hoisted him upwards. Carrying the boy in one arm, Leon gently reached his hand out to [color=00FFFF]Raine[/color]. A man and a woman's testimony would be worth far more than only one person's, after all.

[color=E6FFCC]"Excuse me,"[/color] he said. [color=E6FFCC]"Could you please come with me? You will need to be present at the trial to properly determine the extent of his crimes."[/color]

Leon noticed that the woman looked... concerned for the boy. Smiling gently, he attempted to reassure her.
[color=e6ffcc]"You do not need to worry. [i]This[/i] one has been subdued to the fullest of my ability. He will be kept safely until such time as he can undergo [[i]Judgement][/i]."[/color]

Leon briefly considered what this boy had stolen, and hoped it wasn't something as simple as bread. To lose one's hand for the simple theft of foodstuffs was a folly that should never come to pass, but justice was justice. Forgiving any crime, no matter how small, would do nothing but encourage them further. In the interest of fairness and good morality, all crimes of a kind are equal. Leon tightened his grip around his catch, and patiently waited for the orc guards to arrive.
