"m-my name...?" she stutters panickedly, "I'm not telling you my name!"
he laughs wetly, his lungs sounding shredded and vestigial, "you're smarter than you look. in fact, you seem very intelligent. it's a pity you decided to hunt me, you may have been able to make something of yourself..."
she hurriedly puts her crossbow away and goes to draw her sword.
her arms ceases to move, in fact, her entire body stands rigid, like a statue.
"I'm afraid I can't have you doing that." he approaches, and Ritz's heartbeat begins to hurt, like it's going to break out of her chest, "let me guess. you saw the posting on the bounty board. you thought, because of my birth race that it would be a simple matter to put me down, like some kind of animal."
he stands a scant meter from Ritz. she can smell rot. "well, here I am, hero. now's you chance to exterminate the Cobalt."
she doesn't care if everyone in town calls her a coward, or if she has to pay bearscum back for the advance, Ritz just wants to run, to sprint back to the Convent and to never come back to the forest, but her muscles refuse to move.
