–「 It’s been a few months since your first encounter with The Empress, and in those few months you’ve learned to feel close to happy. The poison in your brain never quite leaves, but you’re not drowning it out with anything anymore. Not on a regular basis, at least. You’ve grown. You’ve done a lot of THINKING about The Condesce, but more specifically, you’ve done a lot of thinking about the empire she built. The ugly corners of the universe, where blood marches down hills to stain the oceans in technicolor. You haven’t really thought of hiding from her, though. Not lately. You’d been foolish to think she’d disappeared, and even more foolish to think you would never run into her here. But as you round a corner through an alley, you see her, and the screech your heel makes against the cement is enough to give you away. 」
–「 You know what death is like here now, but you’re still afraid in a lightheaded, out of body sort of way. You uncaptchalogue your wand, but you don’t attack. You only have three, very small shots if this does go south.」
