U-uhh...well, in this case a quest of revenge would be the natural course of events--I cannot let this heinous crime go unpunished!! I will become a wandering keeper of the peace! I will not rest until I've brought all bandits to justice!

I will not die here today! [ Because that would be uncool. ] I mean, I don't have any weapons--but I will get some! And then slay the bandits!
