Meowww...

Huh? Oh, it's a cat. Looks like something spooked it.
link Shez volume_up
What's wrong, little guy? Is someone chasing you? Heh, not that you'd be able to tell me anyway.

link Shez volume_up
Jeritza? What's wrong?
link Shez volume_up
Wait a sec. Why do I feel like this has happened before?
link Jeritza volume_up
There you are.
link Shez volume_up
Uh...yeah? What's up?
link Jeritza volume_up
Not you. Her. The creature who raided the pantry.
link Shez volume_up
Wait, you mean...the cat?
link Jeritza volume_up
She is swift. This is not the first time she has eluded my grasp.
link Shez volume_up
Not the first... Ohhh. So this is who you were chasing the last time.
link Jeritza volume_up
Yes. She was injured.
link Jeritza volume_up
I tried to tend to her. But she fled. Eventually, another soldier apprehended her.

So that's what was going on. It wasn't a person who went missing, it was a cat.
link Shez volume_up
Now that I think about it, I dunno if you ever said she was a person. Sorry for jumping to conclusions.
link Jeritza volume_up
The fault is mine as well. My word choice was poor.
link Shez volume_up
Honestly, I'm more surprised than anything. Never really saw you as a cat person.
link Shez volume_up
I always thought your antisocial tendencies extended to everyone, human and animal.
link Jeritza volume_up
I only loathe people.
link Jeritza volume_up
I had a cat once. Back at House Bartels, with my sister.
link Shez volume_up
No kidding? So they weren't always scared of you?
link Jeritza volume_up
No.
link Jeritza volume_up
However, the cat vanished. After my mother and sister left.
link Jeritza volume_up
Perhaps it was frightened...by the sight of me covered in blood.
link Shez volume_up
I'm no cat expert, but they say animals can sense danger.
link Shez volume_up
Maybe it could tell that you'd become a threat somehow.
link Jeritza volume_up
Ah.
link Shez volume_up
I'm no expert on cats, but do you really think they'd just forget someone who took care of them?
link Jeritza volume_up
I do not know.
link Shez volume_up
Eh, cats are fickle. Anyway, what do you plan to do once you've caught this bread bandit?
link Jeritza volume_up
Take her with me. And make sure she never steals again.
link ??? volume_up
Mreowr?!
link Shez volume_up
What's that supposed to mean? Look, you practically scared the whiskers right off her!
link Jeritza volume_up
I only planned to give her some food. I wonder why she was frightened.
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, I think it's gonna be a while till she realizes you just wanna help.
