CH. 17: Poison Curse

[Breila]

"We should" Ouragna comments. "We have seen what demons can do. And perhaps Penta was not as crazy as we thought."

"I thought they had implanted you, or that you were in on it," Sable replies. "That's why I attacked you when you first returned. And yes, she has a scar there. I still don't know or understand how you managed to hurt her in that form at all, to be honest."

Val and Naras (Ixitxachitl Lair/Sardonx 12th, 1 PM)
Val explores the remainder of the cavern. There's a small sub-chamber off to the right with a few steel cages in it. More undine are trapped inside. They seem to be prisoners of the Ixitxachitl.

[Nuke]

Val will see if she can open the cages.

Val and Naras (Ixitxachitl Lair/Sardonx 12th, 1 PM)
Val finds the key ring for the cages nearby and sets to unlock them all. The undine swim back to the main chamber once freed, smiling or waving in gratitude to the half-orc as they go.

All the astonishing stories around Baeros seemed to paralyze him for what seemed like ages, but then he shakes his head and says interrupting the current conversation, "Wait! Saving incubated person from demon possession later! First thing first! What is this stupid idea of making you Scourge sex slave? Huh? If we had the cannon it would be very easy to fix the situation. Come up with another plan or I'll be invisible and if that captain will lay hands on you he will get pierced by bullets from all the four guns we acquired. There is so much we can do without violence but you need to draw the line somewhere!" he spits on the ground. "Now about the demons..." He wipes his cloth on his face cleaning the spit from his chin puts one comforting hand on Gallath shoulders and says, "We will do whatever we can to help your sister. And for that we need you whole!" he points his finger at Jocelyn.

Jocelyn has been waiting for Baeros to jump in when it came to her decision. She lifts her hands a little bit to scratch at her head before she looks over to him with a sigh. "You act as if I have never slept with a man before. You also seem to think that the decision is up to you when it is my life that is on the line," she states. "All of you have the choice to leave if this is not something you want to do, but I have made my decision," she says firmly. She sets her eyes firmly on Baeros at this point. "I don't belong to you, so you don't have any right to mess things up at this point. If you are thinking of doing something stupid to mess up this plan that I have agreed to, then don't come because it will only endanger my life even more. I also know that Ouragana is not going to do something, such as make you invisible, that will endanger my life more than it all ready is."

Gallath sighs. "It wasn't me, it was... never mind." he turns to Sable. "Thank you... for keeping her safe."

[BishGada]

"I know I don't own you. Never meant to own anyone. I even lost hope to be a happy spot in your heart. Still, it doesn't mean you won't regret your actions. I give you a good advice and I'll do anything to see you happy and whole. I don't expect anything in return, just to see you progress in life will make me happy. Please reconsider." Baeros says quietly seeing only Jocelyn in the world surrounding them.

[HorizonsDream]

"Regret happens," Jocelyn says. "I'll regret killing him more than doing this." She had to make a choice between two different types of regrets, and this one was a lot more manageable than actually killing him.

[Breila]

Ouragana looks at Jocelyn with a strange look. It was likely that the pirate would end up dead if Jocelyn's plan succeeded, so why was ist less "bad" then killing him herself? But she doesn't say anything.

[BishGada]

"If you expose him as your previous boyfriend murderer the crew will butcher him, if you had any doubt, so instead of having two regrets we might be able to contain it at one." Baeros says his face serious.

========================================================
(OOC: Breila, I know you posted the same but Baeros didn't hear it and thought the same so the credit is all yours.)

[HorizonsDream]

"Maybe, maybe not. Considering that I'm the one being blamed at the moment, once it is proven that he was the one that killed him, there is a possibility that I get a say in the matter, I hope," she says.

[JadedDM]

Jocelyn, Ouragana, Baeros, Gallath and Drav (Alley behind Temple of Renos/Sardonx 15th, 11 PM)
"Seems like that's settled then," Sable says. "The rest of you, follow me. Remember, you're posing as bloodthirsty pirates, so try and look the part." She takes Jocelyn's arm and leads her forward. "To the docks." The gnolls surround the group, forming an honor guard of sorts.

[spyguy1503]

Gallath snags a gun from Baeros, provided he willingly gives it up. He throws back his hood, exposing the red streak in his hair. His head is still reeling from the revelation.

[BishGada]

Just before moving, "And if you have a say in that matter, what will it be?" he asks Jocelyn quietly.

=======================================
(OOC: Baeros will give three guns away on loan basis. If he will get skilled with it he will prefer to have few loaded guns in his belt to fire two rounds in sequence.)
