Dusk Desire
b93a7b
Without having a tracker coin, Kalez has to use her scry spell to contact her target,
a giant she had worked with on a couple of occasions in the past.
the duches encants her spell and the crystal fogs.
the fogs clears to reveal the monstrous face of the giant, scowling with suspicion.
Herocea wants no more buisness with witch, deals were done
'things have changed, I need your help again'
'When golden scorpion asks for help she wants much and gives little.'
giants having little knowledge of society, do not seem to understand worth and value.
true enough the duches knows that she cheated the titanic person on all previous ocassions
but it's just as likely Herocea would have felt cheated no matter how much she had been paid.
The mere thought of actually paying the giant even a coin more fills Kalez with nausia.
she decides to approach the situation from another angle
'Ingrate! after I've done for you? I risked my own hide to find you a merchant to buy your crops
I act in treason of my king to do what Is right, and still I give to little?'
the giant lets out a deep sigh
'maybe Herocea does owe Kalez,maybe she does not, what is wanted?'
the smile Kalez feels, cannot show on her face, but to be safe she takes a moment to keep her tone dire.
"One of the Kings agents has found something on me, she marches to Crym-Z'Garr even now . . . I need you to get rid of her.
'No, Herocea, is farmer, not a warrior.'
despite the giant's protests she can feel Herocea's resolve weakening
'This Women, this White Wolf, she is relentless, she has found me and she will find you.'
'Herocea is not criminal, she is a farmer.'
'These people have made you a criminal already, being born a giant is crime enough in thier eyes'
'Herocea, has done nothing wrong!' The giantess bellows,
rousing to fury, Kalez is glad not to be in the giant's presence
'The king's men don't care, I care and now they come for me because I care, They will kill me because I would dare help people like you'
The giant falls silent
Kalez continues: 'long ago you told me that you wanted to be a part of society, with out people helping each other society doesn't exist, and you might as well go back to living as a hermit.'
the giant ponders in silence for a long moment, and then lets out another deep sigh.
'Herocea will help, what do you need me to do?'
Kalez will have to be careful with her commands, it is likely the more she is given the more likely Heorcea will forget one or two
A): give her aLocation (above all the most important, with out a guide Herocea will need to find her own way to the ambush location)
B): tell her time of day, (knowing when to expect her target will help her stay ready)
C): what to do to the envoy (with a giant things can get very messy if left to thier own devices, restrictions and goals can be important)
D): tactical orders (how to fight certain targets and what kind of equipment to bring)
E): bring up Princess Reefa (the princess is beloved by the kingdom, her fate will have a dramatic impact)
F): mention Garrin (Kalez's spy and a possible ally, Kalez could also contact Garrin directly and let him give her more orders)
G): tell her what to do when the job's done (she'll probably just head home normally)
H): Offer some additional incentive (if she's eager for a prize, she might remember the plan better)
I): Some other important detail of the plan (could be anything)
