* TalkToTheFist: Crislie's response to a guard who harasses Navaeli when she's trying to leave Talimour for the first time is to clock in straight in the face. This does take the guard out of the picture, but it also sets multiple knights on their tails and gets them thrown in jail.

Added new examples to Shadow Herald folder. Crosswicking imminent.
* CastingAShadow: One of the blessings of Silamir's domain. Navaeli discovers this when she allows Silamir to help her out of a tight spot; the goddess turns Knight Jeidhe's own shadow against him.
* ConvenientlyCellmates: Downplayed. Navaeli and Crislie are coincidentally placed in a cell with Meparik, the same pickpocket that stole Crislie's wallet a week back.

Added DiffLines:

* WelcomeToTheBigCity: Downplayed. Crislie gets singled out by an Irongardhe priest for some preaching and pickpocketed almost immediately after entering Talimour, but doesn't notice the latter until she's out shopping with Inkantik -- at which point she's annoyed that Navaeli was right for warning her about pickpockets.

She finds romance in a handsome hooligan girl, Crislie Crimsworth, and kinship with a young feyrie thief named Meparik.
