Homunculus

You're being chased by the palace guards after stealing a full sack of royal jewels. Although you're a skilled thief, this just might be the day your luck runs out as they gain on you in the foreign village streets. You're completely caught off guard when you're yanked into an alley by a large shadowed figure and although your first instinct is to fight this man off, you quickly realize he's saved you as you watch the unknowning guards run right passed the both of you. When their footsteps disappear, your large rescuer smiles down at you triumphantly.
