[@ManoftheNorth ] [b]Rough draft for a middle-ground scenario:[/b] maybe he has it, but doesn't know yet. Goes through an info broker the LH Guild has ears on, they catch wind, and corner him. He either sells them the item or joins the guild.

Just a thought I had after reading both sides.

[@Shadowdancer] Sounds awesome. And Cecelia is more so meant to stalk someone and more or less stunlock them before they know she's even there to attack her. Usually she only hunts small or medium monsters, so she can just one-shot from a hiding spot, but if she has to fight, she attacks a lot at once with attacks that have tiny stunning effects, just enought to stun until her next attack can land (under normal stamina conditions).
