DAWON

[soulping]

[ You find yourself sequestered in a cave deep within Waldemar's mountain. A table and a set of chairs have been carved from the surrounding rock. Torches are set into the walls to provide light, while a faint breeze blows through cracks in the walls and ceiling to provide ventilation. There are no doors or windows to speak of.

In the center of the room are your (randomly assigned) gifts: A FINE CLOAK WITH A FUR TRIM and A BASKET OF FOODSTUFFS.

There’s an hourglass of wrought silver embedded in the wall, with ten rubies inside. Pinned beside it is an elegant tapestry featuring several armored men on horseback fighting a dragon. You are part of THE KNIGHTS.

Resting on the table are the following: a sheet of parchment, a quill, and a capped jar of ink. Written on the parchment is a list and three words in bold lettering:

PROTECT
TARGET
DEFEND

Happy about stealing. And maybe winning, I guess.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

I suppose stealing could mean winning here. It is not as though our thievery will have any ill effects once this game ends, either.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

Lace, Ivy is a thief. Full blown kleptomaniac.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

She is?

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

Yes, yes she is.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

Why?

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

I never asked that. I just accepted her the way she is.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

Thievery is hardly acceptable.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

But Ivy is acceptable because she's part of Dawon.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

Then we should try to break the habit.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

I mean, we could try, but I don't know how well she'd take it?

She's a professional.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

We simply have to convince her that it is wrong.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

i don't know. It's the way she made a living most of her life, does that still make it wrong?

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

She could have found another means of supporting herself!

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

You don't really know that.

We can talk to her but I'm not going to let you yell at her and tell her she's wrong for being the way she is. I think that steps over a line.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

I'm not going to yell. I'm not aggressive or harsh.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

I think you're being a tiny bit harsh.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

How?

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

Because you're saying that she was doing the wrong thing without even asking her about it first.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

Since it bothers you, I won't say any more.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scrapthis]

We can ask her about it after we're done here?

Re: DISCUSSION

[bloodbiter]

Of course, if that's what you want. I'm concerned for her.
