Negotiations|Flux

[Kender Bard]

A messenger from Flux strolled calmly to the gates. By the time he actually reached them, there was a bleeding cut on his forehead where a citizen had gotten lucky with a rock throw. That man was dead now and the acolyte was muttering unkind things under his breath. He opened the gates just enough to slip out and looked around. "'ey there! Who do I give the High Priest's letter to!?"

For a while there was no answer, until Kurai herself came striding over the way. She still looked angry, and her blades dripped blood as she walked, though the red liquid was drying now. The sacrifice to Evil had been made; now she was just brooding over how long the sign she asked for to manifest, and when.

"Give me that," she said shortly, clenching her left fist to "pull" the letter to her right hand.

The messenger yelped and dropped the letter, letting her have it as he turned heel and ran off. Nikholas had asked for a report. Well, he'd seen enough.

The note itself stated that Nikholas was appreciative on behalf of Soahc for any give she wished to offer, but, however, coming inside of Flux would not be necessary. 'Soahc is everywhere, and in all of us, my dear lady. We don't even use our own altar for much these days, except perhaps as a podium or somewhere to sit. I would be willing to preside over your ceremony if you wish for my personal attendance.'

Kurai sighed through her nose in annoyance. "Well where the f--k am I supposed to send a reply to?" she growled. "And I told that priestess the sacrifice wouldn't be ready for three and a half more months!"

She paced, fuming. "Maybe I should just slit my wrists and cut my throat again, see what that gets me," she grumbled.

((Hmm, now what?))
