As you stand in the market square, you are continually jostled and bumped by the passing crowd which is flowing around you. You are about to move off when suddenly you feel something tugging at your Backpack. Glancing over your shoulder, you see a suspicious young man running off through the crowd. He is clutching something to his chest that you feel sure he has just filched from your pack.

If you wish to chase after this man, turn to 83.

If you decide to let him go, turn to 56.
