A thief?! Tia HATES thieves. They take everything that poor shopkeepers work so hard for, like weapons and armor and potential husbands. No more. Time to crack the whip and teach this young man the error of his ways. Tia's surprisingly good at handling such wretches in spite of her poor DL record. She possesses plenty of healing, low level attack magic, and a mean whip hand. Just in case Chaco can somehow handle all that, Tia's got several damaging and buffing IPs to help tilt the fight. Tia's going to strike a blow for abused shopkeepers everywhere and beat the punk thief out of Chaco. Who knows? She might even get a cute demure store clerk out of the deal. Or just stress relief.

It's been a while, but Chaco's finally here to show everyone what he's made of. And he's made of one little pack of badass ass-kicking all 'round. The first he'll apprise of this fact is Tia. There are many things Chaco could do to send the mage packing back to her hometown, but surely the most tried and proven method to defeat anyone is to stab them with something pointy and, preferably, sharp. And it's Chaco's greatest fortune that his spear fits this description exactly. It may not be entirely gentlemanly, but the Winglies have never cared for things such as courtesy and etiquette; advancing by stabbing a lady repeatedly isn't below Chaco, so that's precisely what he's going to do.
Bardiche Chaco really looked up to Naeasala. For one, the Raven King was a wingly as well, at least to Chaco's eyes. For two, he wasn't as mindnumbingly scary as Sid. And for three, he was Godlike, a rank that Chaco would want to, someday, acquire as well.
He had paid the ruler of Kilvas's fight good attention some days ago. He had observed the fight with Ghaleon and, though the fight ended abruptly due to... shenanigans, shall we say, Chaco understood why the birds of Kilvas were granted a place among the Godlike.
It was to Tia's great surprise that Chaco started loop-de-looping for no apparent reason. When he began to fly up, then came at her and pricked at her with his spear, Tia was, at first, very bewildered. His silly acrobatics did not help at all.
So when Chaco went for a second loop and wanted to repeat the routine, Tia just blasted him out of the sky.
With fire.
And so Chaco's stupidity found no purchase with Tia. Better luck next time, Chaco!
