The sorceror plucked the gemstone out of Falco's fingers and held it up examining it. After a few minutes of scrutiny, a sinister grin traced his lips and he nodded.
"You did well, boy," he said, a mocking tone in his voice. Marlowe, still pissy, tapped her foot impatiently on the cobblestones. Ignoring her, the magician placed the stone in a hidden pocket in his voluminous robe. He beckoned Marlowe over, who uncrossed her arms and came towards him reluctantly. He plunked down the jar containing the guardian spirit in her arms and made small waving motions towards Falco, trusting her to understand the message.
She turned around quickly to hide a grin from him, and walked swiftly towards Falco.

"Sarah!" Falco exclaimed and took the jar as relief washed over him and all anger forgotten for the moment. Sarah was back and safe! That was all that mattered to the zahdl at that moment and Falco very nearly turned to thank the hooded one before checking himself. It was the magician who took Sarah after all and Marlowe...
Falco turned his gaze towards the girl standing before him and gave a nod. "Guess I'll be seeing you again Marlowe. And...thank you," Falco whispered taking a step back and flaring his wings. Giving the magician one last glance; as if trying to imprint his image into his mind, the zahdl took to the air, broke the jar sealing his guardian in mid air and dropping it to the ground where it shattered(he had hoped that the jar had landed onto the hooded one's head).

Which it nearly did, before the hooded man scrambled out of the way, losing his footing and most of his dignity. Marlow sniggered loudly while the sorceror straightened himself, giving her a scathing look.
"We're going," he spat, grabbing the girl by the arm. Making a 'chh' sound, she followed unhappily.
After a few feet, the man let go of her arm, trusting her to follow. Marlow started after him, fingering the goggles around her neck for a moment and allowed herself a small grin. Maybe things around here were going to get interesting after all...
