When the four adventurers were throughly cleansed from their travels, they emerged from the river to find their possessions stolen.
"What … what happened?" Rose demanded. "All our stuff is gone!"
"Curses!" Aurora spat. "I knew I should have stayed on watch!"
"It's all gone!" Fiora said. "Our clothes, my spell book …"
"Oh, no one cares about your spell book," Sadarth said. "More importantly, my spell book is gone! It actually had spells in it, instead of just doodles."
"Mine had spells too!" Fiora said. "You don't have to be so mean just because—"
"Enough!" Aurora said. "We need to focus. We have just been robbed, but whoever took our equipment can't have gone far. We will find them, we will take back what is ours, and we will make them pay!"
Sadarth smiled, for the first time in agreement with the Paladin. "I'll second that."
"Hold on," Fiora said, blushing. "You don't think that … when whoever robbed us, robbed us, you don't think that they … saw us, you know, without our clothes on?"
"That is both probable and irreverent," Aurora said. "Because after we find them, I'm going to Smite their Evil so hard, they won't remember anything after last week. Now, you two, how well can you function without your spell books?"
"I can cast all the spells I memorized this morning," Sadarth said. "But I won't be able to memorized anything different until after I get it back. How about you? Can you do much without a sword?"
Aurora ripped off a branch from a tree and stripped off the leaves until it became a suitable quarterstaff. "If I can smite evil with it, I'll be fine. Now onward my friends! For honor! For victory! For our dignity! We will not rest, we will not give up, we will not falter until we have restored what is rightfully ours!"
The rest of the party cheered in agreement, and the four naked women charged into the forest.
