"Found you a present!" one of the goblins announced with a wicked grin, holding the necklace up like an offering of treasure.

Adrian frowned, stepping back instinctively. The sight of the necklace, still draped over a lifeless body, filled him with unease. "I don't want that," he said firmly, his voice edged with discomfort. "Put it back."
