Good Friend

This crossbow was the prized possession of a pair of thieves that tormented the nobility of New Heomar for nearly five years. Stolen from the cart of a wealthy merchant, the gilded crossbow quickly began to feature in their crimes. One thief would approach the target in question, while the other wielded Good Friend from afar. The two were credited with many daring escapes, including one occasion in which one thief, destined to hang, was freed at the last moment by a last-minute bolt through the rope. No threat of pain or capture could faze them, it was said, if either was caught alone - for they knew that sooner or later, their Good Friend would be along to free them.
