Stylas led Vince into the Dungeon, throwing him in a cell. Before the door was closed his weapons and armor were taken and locked up. The door is closed. "What's your name, kid?"

"You want the name I gave you or a diffrent name?" He asked the man without a hint of anger of any form.

"I really dont want to play games with you. I want answers. Real answers. You can either go with it, or we can leave you here to rot. And trust me, there are no laws against beating prisoners or starving them here in Lebonwaith."

He yawned. "I know about the laws here sir." He said to Sunstrider flatly. "I know that your not trying to intimadate me." He said to the man. "But, even though I am not a warrior and I have those items I have my right to them. Since I bought them. I went through a lot of stressful things to get the money for those items." HE said flatly again. "My name is Vince."

Maybe they had gotten somewhere. Then again, maybe not. "What's your real profession, Vince?" He wasn't a warrior, maybe he was in with the Thieves. Promotion? The thought rang in his mind.

"I am a treasure hunter." He said to the man. "If you look inside the bottom left pocket you will find two pieces of paper that lead to a treasure, which I found. I decided to keep the paper as a memo for what I went through to get that treasure. I also donated money to the church and bought myself some armor." He said to Strider.

Nothing was adding up. He wasn't telling Strider the whole truth. Two warriors stood behind him. One leaning against the wall, the other, sitting on the desk. "Then why did you lie to me when I stopped you?"

"Because how was a treasure hunter to explain himself when he was walking past the merchants and a man made small talk and ran off? You would think me a thief, even though you think me a thief now, I am not. I didn't need trouble, I dont want trouble. I do deeply apologize for the disrespect I might have given you." He said keeping himself calm.

One of the guards opened the cell and punched him in the gut.
"Quit lying to us. Tell me who you really are and why you let the Thief get away. You knew him didnt you!"

The punch was hard. He gasped as blood came out of his mouth. He wiped his face and sighed. He didn't grin, nor did he plea. "I am telling you the truth. THe man walked up to me and asked me who I was and why I was traveling. I told him that I am vince and that I was searching for an INN to sleep in." He said to the men calmly.

"You're not a very good liar, kid." Stylas said and nodded to the guard. The guard hit him square in the jaw. "The thief was in a hurry to leave. He wouldn't stop and ask you who you were and where you were going. You look like a warrior in the armor."
The guard hit him again. Just enough to make it known they meant business. "And another thing. You grabbed his arm and stopped him."

"Yes, thus is true." He said though it now hurt to talk. His jaw hurt very much and he thought it was broken. "After he spoke to me, he called me a *swear*" he said through broken teeth. "I had grabbed his arm and was about to strike him when he said he ment someone else. A man he knew. So, i let him go. " He didn't sound like it, but Vince had practiced this and most of what he said many times before. From when the soldeir spoke to him, to when his jaw was broken. He had made sure to know what to say next.

"You have too many different stories, thief." He watched as the guard punched him in the gut again, then sent his knee up into his chin. "This is your last chance. That or we hang you in the morning."

"If I said anything but the truth you wouldn't believe me because it would be another 'story' in your eyes. I have told you the truth. That is my word. I know that you wont believe me and that you would hang a man who spoke the truth to you just so you could gain some moral from our king. At the rate your beating me, I will be dead long before morning." he said quitely, almost unable to be heard by the three. A lone tear rolled down his eye from the pain finnally getting to him.

"Getting your ass kicked won't kill you. If you are in fact just a treasure hunter, why did you tell me lies when I first saw you? You lied to me then when you had no reason to so that means you're not telling me the whole truth." The guard back-handed him across the face. "Tell me how you knew the thief. If you cooperate, maybe you'll be set free after trial."
"Look at your chances, kid. You can either be uncooperative and rot in this cell or be hanged. That... or you can cooperate and perhaps live to see the light of day again. Your chances are much better by answering my questions."
