I thank you for speaking on behalf of your guild and offering me a position as a thief. Unfortunately it does not suit my temprement to try and make a living from the hard work of others.

And the stench of the sewers in Thakria must be particularly foul, with the amount of raw excrement that city produces. I guess it suits some people to live there.

So it is with a heavy heart that I feel the need to decline your generosity.

As a side question, can we commission someone to give the thieves better retorts that \"we're thieves, that's what we do\" when people point out their obvious character flaws - how about a nice line of excuses to do with their deprived childhood, lack o

f opportunity to achieve more from life.
