She describes a few - non-fatal, moderately but not extremely injurious, more focused on leaving her victim helpless.

Permalink

The Keres summons some ghosts that haven't shown up before.

"...I believe I can set something in that genre up, if you want to begin laying a trail."

Permalink

"Alright. Should we invite that Eliana? She might have a bit of fun with this, though unfortunately I haven't managed any gifts for her yet..."

Permalink

"If you want to. It wouldn't hurt to ask."

Permalink

"Perhaps I'll find a gift while I'm out, and that can be part of my trail."

Permalink

"Have fun." And a kiss for good luck.

Permalink

Kiss!

"Oh, I will."

And she's off.

Permalink

And the Keres sets her Tinker shards to trapmaking.

Permalink

Hisame goes to visit Eliana first, approaching so she won't be seen by the neighbors. Wouldn't do to hook Eliana's reputation to theirs at all thoroughly this early in the game.

One of the elves opens the back door for her.

"The mistress will meet you in the sitting room. Please, follow me."

Permalink

She nods and does so.

Permalink

To the room of sits.

"She will be with you presently. Do you care for refreshments?"

Permalink

"Certainly. Something light on the stomach, perhaps."

Permalink

"As you wish." The elf bows and withdraws.


Hisame will have a few moments alone.

Permalink

She examines the room, but doesn't cause any chaos.

Permalink

The room is fancily decorated, but not in a way that really implies any personality, more like a standard basic pattern.

Permalink

Her host steps in.

"Hello again. Is it just you today?"

Permalink

"Hello! And for this visit, yes. It's a delight to see you again, though, even if it's a pity I didn't have the time to pick up a gift on my way."

Permalink

She smiles pleasantly.

"That is more than all right. I am no Old God to demand blood sacrifice at every turn."

Permalink

"You'd be a quite awe-inspiring goddess."

Permalink

"It is kind of you to say so. What may I do for you?"

The elf returns, bearing crackers and a selection of cheeses.

Permalink

She stacks unholy combinations of crackers and cheese and eats them like they definitely belong in the same bite.

"The Keres and I managed to draw the attention of the Carta - or perhaps it's more accurate to say they drew our attention - and that mage I spared made it back around the same time, incidentally deciding to alert the Carta to us. We believe the mage and someone named Zevran, who appears to also be some assassin named the Antivan, will be seeking us out soon. We'd like to set up a little ambush and have some fun with them."

Permalink

"How... exciting."

Permalink

"We're hoping to ambush them at home, though I'd also like to avoid drawing any undue attention towards you? Being so nearby, and all."

"And you're welcome to join the ambush, as well as any after party. Depending on their life choices, I may want to keep one or both, though."

Permalink

"I appreciate that you thought to extend an invitation, especially after so short a time acquainted. If a Circle rebellion is brewing, I doubt any attention directed my way will last very long. I am curious what sort of afterparty you intend; it is very difficult to keep a mage captive for any length of time."
