Session: Apr. 22nd, 2024

by Eirlyssia Tsurovitchna

I finally got to use Mortalis to interrogate someone. I've been itching to see how it actually works, and I was not disappointed. It's certainly not a method I'd use on just anyone - it seems incredibly invasive and painful, if the blood coming out of Terri's eyes was any indication. Also a very creepy, black eyed stare, kind of thing. Luckily it was just Terri, and I made sure Elegant healed her, so I don't feel a lot of remorse there. She's going to be dying tomorrow night anyway, I already promised Mortalis that he could have her. Someone that loyal to my mother would never change her ways, so the easiest course of action is to just get rid of her. Plus, I've really been meaning to feed Mortalis and haven't had a chance, so this would help there. Though, to be honest, I'm hoping to feed my mother to him as well. Hopefully he can be nice and full, and get some good practice outside of the khopesh tomorrow.
 
Terri did have a couple helpful things to "say". We found out the crystal rod (aka the lock to Shahavar), is in the basement, something about a secret shrine behind one of the shelves outside of the pantry. That's going to make things much easier for Zun when he heads to the basement and joins Lanea's party. We also found out a helpful confirmation that Mother (and Terri) still suspect absolutely nothing about our group, which is amazing. I honestly didn't think we'd get this far without being detected, but Lanea's group pulling the focus off of us has really helped us out. I fear for their safety a little bit, but I'm grateful nonetheless.
 
Eventually Zun had to stop me in my interrogation, informing me that Terri was losing too much blood. A little disappointing, since there were more questions I wanted to ask her. Humans are so fragile, myself included. It's a real flaw. So I let her go. And with a series of quick thinking, we healed her, and then modify memory'ed her. Poor Elegant. We had to convince her that he just couldn't get it up in their little lovemaking session, and so Zun was escorting her out. The only thing we missed - the tear in her jacket where I stabbed her in the shoulder. We all forgot it, and of course, she's sharp - she noticed it almost immediately. I'm really hoping that doesn't come back to haunt us. But either way - we finally got to pull it off, and almost everyone got to use something that spoke directly to their strengths. It was satisfying.
 
What was unsatisfying was my message to Dan'or'avil. The last time he and I spoke over Sending, he was very reasonable. Cold, calm even. So this time, I wanted to know what he had done to make Mother decide to kill him. Sent him a simple message, had a friendly tone and everything, just asking what happened. His answer was a very angry "I'll be happy to tell you when I rip your soul from your screaming body". That is not the cold and calculating villain I spoke with last time, that is a man having a temper tantrum. He honestly irks me so much. He acts like I took Mortalis from him - a lie. Mortalis sat in Azargaol for who knows how long - Dan'or'avil could have gone and gotten him at any time. I found Mortalis fair and square. And now Mortalis and I are achieving things that Dan'or'avil never even dreamed of trying...Mortalis deserves to be with me. Not someone as volatile and boring as Dan'or'avil. And I will happily tell him that the next time we speak. I've had enough of his angry threats and temper tantrums.
