For the first time since I met her, I’ve left an incident believing Ruin is not the most reckless person I know. She actually listened to me, and for that the others nearly got her killed.
Unthinking oafs, both of them.
One wrong move and one of the only people here worth snot would have suffered for it.
I believe a lesson needs to be taught. Since they don’t listen, they don’t need their sense of hearing, do they?
Oba wasn’t nearly as bad after everything as I thought she might be, but whatever’s going on with her and that sabotage is not a fire I particularly want to stick my hands in.
The others are thinking Snake Folk, but I’m not so paranoid as to immediately share their fears. As insidious as they can be there ARE more mundane explanations for the situation.
