Thanuriel was not particularly interested in the re-appearing rumors of the mystical wishing coins. He'd heard it many times in his years, and frankly the only reason he was interested was because he could have some fun with it.

He was strolling along town, his hood down (he assumed his questionably bright eyes would be shrugged off as a trick of the sun) and a bounce in his step. His hands shoved in his pockets, he observed the other citizens briskly walking past, not even batting an eye. One was a particularly rich-looking lady with a crazy and intricately braided hairstyle that reached towards the sky. A pearl necklace bounced across her chest each step she took, strutting in her long, lustrous dress.

The next person Thanuriel saw was not so lucky. She was young, only 6 years old or so, and clearly another human being just trying to pass by.

Thanuriel stepped towards the side of the street, retracting his claws and wondering about the coins that the hedgehog had. They seemed odd. Magical, almost, and his hunches about magical items were almost never unrequited. Perhaps, he realized, they were the mystified wishing coins. His grin turned Cheshire-like as he thought about all the things that would happen should anyone else have discovered the hedgehog's find. Oh, he just had to know.

Thanuriel searched the crowds, hoping to find a glimpse of the hedgehog. To his d
