Uriel did feel the unpracticed thief steal his ring. He was just about to scoop the kid under his arm when the boy darted off. He followed after, able to run because he was losing weight doing all of the farm work he had been doing. It did not take long for him to catch up with the kid. He saw the box hit the ground, sighed a sigh of relief when it stayed closed, and bent down to get it. Then he looked at the kid and produced a little bit of money, held it up and said, "Now, I can be angry at you for stealing a very important ring from me... Or I can pay you to help me out a little bit with a secret project for my fiance.... Do you want this shilling? Because it's yours if you can find me the cutest two kittens out of that litter over there." The big man was patient with the child... Either the kid stole because he wanted money, or he stole because it was shiny. Either way... Uriel couldn't punish the boy, it wasn't in his nature to see a child in need and make him worse off for it. Uriel stood then and looked at the older male, nodding, "Thanks."
