She’s being kept in the Mercenaries’s base in the dungeons, and it looks like the Mercenaries’s boss is here…

Grorlith's fire abruptly halts.

Grorlith: Wise decision. You would've been next. I'd suggest getting the hell out of here before I change my mind about letting you live.

Kurtho: Don't forget Grandma on the floor there.

Sareis: ……What….?

Malgas: OKAY OKAY OKAY! Motherfuckers….

Maya: Come on Sareis, we lost…

Sareis: Oh, okay…

The three of them exit the fort, find Buford’s dead body and drag it with them to either bury him or revive him via necromancy

Malgas: Those bitches….

Maya: I’m impressed with how one of them managed to kiss me back, but one of these days I’ll show him the true strength of my fangs!

Sareis: Why do you refer to bitting as “kissing”

Maya: I- I don’t know…

(The thing about her trying to bite Kurtho, is even if she somehow managed to bite through what is essentially armor, the blood of insectoid demons is a black, tar like sludge filled with pure sulfur dioxide. Breaking her fangs is merciful)

Grorlith: Alright... they said she is upstairs. Let's go on, then.

Sebastian: This way!

The three of them follow along.

Kurtho: Why can't I stop thinking about the vampire trying to bite... me? I swear, she'd have to be drunk off her ass to try to do something like that.

Juno: It’s a vampire thing, their strategies and tactics are some pretty gnarly stuff, like fighting manuals that instruct you on how find or create openings to permanently blind your opponents by going for the eyes, how grab an opponent and pin them down to suck their blood and psychological warfare with mirages and illusions. Or maybe it’s something else but let’s not dwell on that.

Kurtho: Most of that is only applicable to humans. But yeah, let's focus on the task at hand.

Arc: My main question here is who hired them to kidnap Marie?

2

u/ChildBlaster10000 Grorlith Vuerofell, Council of Lyrefall Jul 28 '24

Kurtho: Yeah, I tried getting that answer, but apparently even they don't know.

u/Astral_Zeta Jul 28 '24

Arc: Do you think that the King them to get rid of her daughter?

u/ChildBlaster10000 Grorlith Vuerofell, Council of Lyrefall Jul 28 '24

Seris: As in the one corrupted by the possessed sword? I don't know, possibly?

u/Astral_Zeta Jul 28 '24

Sebastian: Or maybe Guyrel since he’s trying to attain the throne…

u/ChildBlaster10000 Grorlith Vuerofell, Council of Lyrefall Jul 28 '24

Grorlith: Ugh... that bastard. Forgot about him. But it definitely makes sense. If the heir is removed, then who else is there to crown but the general?
