Spellbound Tome Quests

You attempt to pickpocket her.

Narrative:
The moment your hand makes contact with her, her gaze shifts to you. She looks frightened and angry, slapping your hand off her precious dagger and screeching in her small voice. "Guards! Guards! A thief!"

You don't have the dagger, but you have no choice but to bail. Fighting the Brass Blades in the city will not end well for you.
