In all honesty, Grace didn't know what pulled her to Hargeon, but she felt the area call to her for some reason. It was odd, that she would pick a place like this to go, when she was rich enough to visit nearly anywhere she wanted. It wasn't normal for her to be in this sort of situation. She looked around in a bit of disgust, looking at all the homeless people begging for money. She couldn't believe that people like them would just lose something, and decide that they weren't going to work for money. No, they were just gonna be lazy beggars, on the side of the street, begging for just a tiny bit of money. Well, Grace wouldn't help, not in the very least. One of the filthy scumbags looked at her, and pleaded with her, trying to get her to feel some guilt for "his situation" and she just did a tiny giggle as she shunned him by looking at the other side of the street. The man got on his knees, and Grace couldn't help but laugh at his stupidity. She was thinking about giving him a coin, but instead, she walked slow, just to taunt him. She said to him, "If you're going to do anything in this world you better work for it."
As she said this, she began running, as fast as she good. Even in her heels, she was able to outrun the man. Under her breath, she said to herself, "Pitiful..." All of a sudden, she looked up from the area, to see a young man in front of her. She did a tiny smile towards him, seeing that he was of high stature. With that, she said in a very calm voice, "So, what is someone of your status doing here with these...civilians." With that final word, she elongated it, as she spoke about them in disgust. "Ma'am, I don't find that to be very kind. I am the lord of Hargeon, and I would like you to not talk about my citizens like that. I won't say anything negative about you to your guild, but only if you work for me. I will reward you for your services, and maybe put in a good word instead of a bad one." Although Grace did not like the idea of helping the poor and homeless, she decided to listen to the lord. I mean, after all, he is one of the upper class. Just like her mother and father always said, "Connections equal Social Power." Which meant one thing, "Okay then, I guess I'll help your cause. Just know I will not break a nail for your underlings."
