They're taking her clothes!

Jaheira moved towards her clothes sitting on the bank of the river, but the three men stepped towards them, blocking her way. Jaheira knew that shin deep in water she'd never beat them to her clothes. Her weapons and armor were there as well, leaving her largely helpless.

"Let me guess... you're not mere gawkers are you?" Jaheira asked, eyes narrowing.

"Afraid not." Smiled the lead man of the bunch. "We're some bandits and we'll be taking your clothes, along with these fancy blades and armor!"

He laughed as his companions picked up Jaheira's clothing. Jaheria's mind raced. They were going to leave her naked here! She could try to stop them with magic, but unfortunately that involved elaborate gestures with her hands and would expose her body to them. Once she wouldn't have thought twice, but age had made her insecure. She bit her lip as the men laughed. What could she do? She hated being helpless!
