"But I could do with a new mirror anyway. I think I'll be taking this off your hands, peasant."
Sighing, you glance up at the mirror. You'll have to make a report of the missing item once you've arrived and it's best to have as good a description as possible for the paperwork. With any luck the mirror was insured or its owner could squeeze something out of the Theives Guild.
Except the second you look up at the mirror your body is wracked with unimaginable pain! You want to cry out but all you can do is experience the burning sensation in your head and the terrifying numbness that's gripping the rest of you.
And then, as quickly as it started, it's over.
It was the shock of suddenly staring at your own face that prevented your from crying out. The mirror! It had swapped your body with the bandit's! You glance at the man's face in the mirror and hastily find a pocket for it in the vest you find yourself wearing.
"Safe travels, uh, peasant!" You croak in your new voice. Your slack-jawed former body stares at you, then his hands in confusion.
"C'mon let's get out of here before the Guard comes," One of the other bandits says. "This was a waste of time...."
Before you can properly react you're caught up in the bandits mounting their horses and fading off into the fields. Just as you're nearly out of ear shot you hear from the dust:
"Hey! Hey!! Stop! You idiots the peasant stole my body! That's not me! Hey!"
You're bringing up the rear of the bandits. No one would notice if you turned around and headed back for your own body. You don't want to be a bandit! Right....? Then again you do have the mirror....
