Similar to Earth rats
No one’s favorite creature. They were rodents the size of small dogs that could walk on two legs and were adept at taking things that didn’t belong to them.
“Pretty bauble,” said the willen, balancing a ring between his paws. Correk looked down to see that the ring was missing from his hand and he snatched it back from the willen before it was secreted somewhere in the folds of its silvery skin. “Finders, keepers,” snarled the willen, reaching out with its long, thin claws fully extended. “The ring for information,” the willen offered, his pupils spinning with excitement. Correk looked away. It was a way to hypnotize their prey long enough to strip them of their belongings. “You mean gossip.”
“No, this is about the human you secured for a task. You call her detective, don’t you?”
“I’ll tell you what,” said the willen, twitching its long, metallic tail. “I’ll let you decide. The Light Elves are known for their honor. If my information is only gossip to you, I’ll leave you be.”
