I belong here, and you will not deny me. / @weaveate
" presumptuous of you, godling - but then, i suppose that is rather what you are known for. " it is always a novel experience, to bear witness to that which you have only ever read about. you know that gale would be fascinated, overcome with the impulse to put ink to paper in the presence of such legend, but you ... you have lived so long already, and you know intimately well the danger of such a being when he wears a trusted face.
it is not guilt that comes over you, thinking about gale, but some possessive cousin; his end was yours to write, and the thing in his flesh @weaveate would take that from you, carelessly as he would take mystra's place in the pantheon. he is greed incarnate, and you are bhaal's sword arm, charged to strike down the craven, the selfish, the consumed.
you keep your tone light, your expression familiar. nothing of the bloodlust roiling in your gut shines in your crimson gaze. " be calm; we have an accord, do we not? are you familiar with the cormyrian fable of the scorpion and the toad? "
