Shimmer allowed a small smile to brighten her face as she was nuzzled by Snow, she knew her sister had good arguements for coming here, and just hoped the market was as good as the rumours said it was.
However feeling slightly bored by the walk, she started looking around herself for a likely victim, she hadn't practised her abilities for a while.
Spotting a male Common Rexxel headed towards them, she fell behind her sister again a short way, and as the male got near she slowed and stilled her bells, giving the faintest of smiles to the male she waited for him to come to her. The male slowed down, intrigued by this odd female who's bells were silent, he barely even noticed her smile at him but felt compelled to go over to her. Once the male had noticed her Shimmer knew he was all hers, she created an illusion that they were all alone, and speaking softly to him told him how amazingly handsome he was, he must be very rich, he nodded away enraptured by her, she explained how sore her poor feet were from all this walking, how perhaps he could pay for a cart to take her to and from her destination, for he wouldn't want such dainty paws and such a beautiful lady to be in pain, throughout her illusion and speech she made subtle movements, causing her bells to ring at important words, they rang harshly when she said things like 'sore' and 'pain' and tinkled prettily when she said things like 'beautiful'. She had learned this trick long before she had gained the gift of illusions, she was aware how much more powerful it made her words. The male nodded once more and without a word handed her enough keystones to get her practically all the way across Lambastia and back again, smiling graciously she made him see her simply vanish, and raced off to catch up with her sister, dispelling the illusion shortly after.
The male rexxel found himself standing in the middle of the street, looking at thin air, he couldn't recall what exactly had happened barring having seen a dazzlingly beautiful female Rexxel, but quickly noticed his moneypouch was a lot lighter than it had been, however it was still there, so the money hadn't been stolen, shaking his head with a confused sigh he continued on to his destination, trying to puzzle out how he had spent such a lot of money without even realising it.
Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long
The world is alive now, in and outside our home
You run through the forest, settle before the sun
Darling, I can barely remember you beside me
You should come back home, back on your own now
