It was the eve of the week’s end, mist stooped low beneath the crowded streets of Era, People all around came to watch the travelling Circus road came into the town with their bright colours, loud noises and exotic animals. The man in this story had no time for such trivial matters, he was on a quest to his restore some shred of his self-confidence. He had started his journey with Leeann yesterday with her giving respite and offering some moral support. So with his clean clothes and freshly shaven face he wove through the crowds into a less busy section of the town. It was far less decorated and with a sickly odour clinging to it, similar to what he had smelled like only just yesterday.
He would have turned around and dealt with the public instead of the depressing alleyway, however, he heard the distinct pleas of a person in need who it was he didn't know. All he cared about now though was finding and helping the man. Rushing through the alley mudding up his pants once more he finally came across the man who had called out before he could do anything though he watched as the final blow to kill the man was struck by an assailant. Looking at the attacker, he had one thing running through his mind. "Stop him, Konstantin, anyway you have to." With a goal in his mind, he made his way towards him being vigilant of any reaction he made towards his presence. His weariness in taking down the criminal is he was unsure of his capabilities and the difficulty in retreating he would have with the alleyway being a two lanes away from the main street.
For now, though, Konstantin had to stop him, noticing he was wielding a bloody rock in one hand, he decided to attempt diplomacy and even fear to persuade the man to surrender before they had to fight. Calling out to him in a bold and confident tone as he approached the man at a stead but true pace ensuring his guard was up at all times. "Sir, I'm placing you under arrest for the charge of murder to the 2st degree, anything you do or say may be used against you."
