Quest 015

I'm going to have to be very careful of her. I should've known she'd turn out to be a witch; it's like Lolotte all over again--the way she talks, the orders she gives. And that was always the fear, wasn't it? That if anyone can come here, alive or dead...that she could find me? She swore to have her revenge, but there was little to fear from it back home. A dead witch remains dead...but that's not so, not here.

At least I was careful. With any luck, she'll think me nothing more than a silly peasant girl, just like Lolotte did. And if she thinks I'm useful to her, then maybe...no. I'm not about to start making any elaborate plans, not in a place where no one stays dead for long. Especially when the people who know her far better than I are cautioning others against her. I'll have to be very careful, then, won't I...

I don't like this one bit. But it settles one thing; if there was ever a time or a need to learn about magic, it would be now.

Another curse, is it? At least this one isn't so disruptive as the last. After all, there are far worse things than waking up to find a letter emblazoned on the back of your hand.

H
Still, I don't know what it could stand for. If it's supposed to represent a sin, why isn't it an M? Happy? Helpful...?

And speaking of things that start with H--if a Mr. Harry Dresden should chance upon this, I would like to have a word with you, please, sir.


[OOC: Here's the fun thing about morality in King's Quest--killing is bad and nonviolent solutions are best...unless the person you're killing is evil. In which case, it's all good, 'cause they clearly have it coming anyway. Hypocrisy much? This curse thinks so.]

I'm a mercenary. It's what I do.

[ooc: *cough*He cares.*cough*]

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

She's just a little girl!

[OOC: Watch her be aghast at you, Kincaid.]

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

She's the Archive.

[ooc: Watch him not care. XD]

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh, honestly, not you too. Doesn't she have a family? Someone that cares about her, instead of just pay?

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

I'm the only one she has.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

That's hardly an answer. Are you also the one responsible for making her be an archive, then?

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

That's a family thing. She got it from her mother.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

...Did something...happen to her mother?

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

It's possible.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Mm. Perhaps I shouldn't ask.

...What sorts of things does she like, do you know?

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

Cute things.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I'll remember that.

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

It isn't difficult.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

And don't let anything happen to her.

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

The one who wishes her harm will face the consequences.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

...Good.

[notexactlyhuman.livejournal.com]

Hm.
