The slums was at its most busiest times of the day. The cold breeze swept through the air creating a shudder through the tramps and low rolling criminals that surrounded the area, it was at dark times indeed and Boffen was among the many of them.
Boffen leaned across a old brick wall with his arms folded, screwing up his face at a long bearded tramp sitting against the opposite wall. A dark skinned bold man wearing an eye patch came up to Boffen looking at him blankly. ''What do ya' want Lenny...'' Boffen said in a angry tired voice. ''I owe' you tomorrow remember...'' ''Don't play me Boffen!'' Lenny said as he gripped and slammed Boffen towards the opposite wall, gripping Boffen's patchy overcoat and twisting it up, '' Wheres... my... MONEY!'' Lenny shouted and threw him back to the other wall.
Lenny was one of the most corrupt minds of Bowerstone, he had links to people that no one else had, that was what made Lenny so brutal. If Boffen didn't pay up soon he'd have his head clean off and used as a house decoration... which was a problem... Boffen's pockets were broke (he had no money)

Darryl had entered the slums, after seeing a man leap onto another he drew his bow. He was aiming at the attacker's head, "Get off him, NOW!" he yelled at one of the men.

The man named Lenny dropped dead as a bolt of lightning struck him square in the chest. Magpie took a step forward. "You people alright?" He asked.

Boffen looked at the two people, then looked down the the smoking corpse of Lenny in disbelief that he was actually dead. ''You... killed him...?'' Looking to the man who had just fired the bolt. Boffen took off his hat scratching down on his scruffy hair, then placing back his hat loosley back on. Boffen had never been saved like this before.. nobody had cared for him, he wasn't quite sure how to thank the two noblemen.

"You alright son?" Magpie asked again, approaching him, he grabbed his jaw, moving his head from left to right, to check for injuries or concussion.

''Alright..? Ha alright... Im never alright, but i have to admit i would have been worse off if you never turned up!'' Boffen said as he grabbed a nearly empty bottle of ale from the floor, downing what was left, ''im as thirsty as a .. urm.. urm.. never mind, could you perhaps buy me an ale or two..'' Boffen said grinning ''or three?''.

"Or seven. Along with a couple of bags of food." Magpie said, throwing some bags from seemingly nowhere onto the ground, full of all sorts of delicacies.

Boffen stood there for a few seconds looking at the bags with his mouth open, he took a deep breath in and collapsed onto his knees, reaching out to one of the bags. None of the others around were nearly as brave enough to grab one of the bags, they saw what this stranger did to Lenny and feared his powers.
Boffen scoffed down the food, he'd never tasted food so delicious. Reece leaped out of Boffen's pocket and started scattering round the food nibbling around. ''Thats reece'' Boffen said pointing to the rat, ''And i'm Boffen'', he stood up still muching down on a beefy chicken leg '' your' a errrr... uncommon type to be wandering these parts eh'? ''.

"If you all want out of this place, follow me." Magpie said to the group, most of whom jumped up immediately, and Magpie began making his way out of Bowerstone.

As the group followed Magpie, Boffen ran clumsily next to him and asked anxiously ''So... erm where you heading?''.

Magpie teleported to the other end of the alley, blocking off Darryl's escape route. "What's your problem?"
