"You thief! I won't let a scheming thief like you escape!" The merchant grabbed the boy's shirt and asked the guards in the north part of the city for assistance. The soldier walked leisurely in front of them like he was watching a show. Without saying a word, he motioned for the merchant to let go. The boy was still holding the long cloth bag tightly in his arms. The soldier grew wary and wondered if there was a weapon inside it.

The merchant didn't give up and reached for the wooden stick. "Ouch!" Two snakes crawled out of the cloth bag and bit the merchant's hand fiercely. The child took this opportunity to run away, ducking through the gaps in the crowd. The soldier chased after him all the way to the Sintra Mountains, but the stick could no longer be found...
