Neb saw the leader go rigid as his ally's spell hit him, the thief slowly turned to stone while Neb went over to examine him, there was something about this particular assasin that he thought he recognized.....
Neb reached the assasin just as the stoning had reached his throat and was proceeding upwards, he ripped off the hood concealing the assasin's face and smiled when he saw that it was one of his old teachers, the same who had killed his friend Siria after the thieves' guild had betrayed them, Neb gave the almost stoned man a shove and it fell backwards, shattering as it hit the street, but something metallic contained in the backpack of the assasin had NOT been turned to stone and now slid across the street, it was the blade of a shortsword, Neb bent down to pick it up, examining it's adamantium and mithril blade and the runes etched across it's surface, he quickly hit it in one of his voluminous sleeves as he heard the last assasin die.
