“Yes. Besides, a few months in the cell has made me soft… I need to lay low for some time and get my strength back.” Pai said to you and switched to her more regular alluring voice. “I want to be on top~... shape of course.”
That’s more like it, that is the Pai you knew much better.
Killing Creedy and freeing Alicia. It wasn’t a job that would be an easy one. It required planning, preparation and most likely reinforcements for her to be able to pull it off without any issues. Then there was your sister, The Lady Behind The Cloth, the spymaster of the Syndicate Lady Beve Perenolde. What could she do for you? I bet she would see her little sister out of the Syndicate hands.
“Prince Alric, what are you thinking? Are you going to send her away to this magical goose chase?” Eligius asked you. He clearly wasn’t a fan of the idea.
>Pai will deliver the message to the Frostwolves and then she will go, kill Lord Creedy and rescue Alicia Perenolde before the security is heightened. You will order Eligius and potentially others to go with her as a backup and to ensure that she follows the orders.>The message will be delivered to the Frostwolves and Pai will head out alone to kill Lord Creedy and to rescue Alicia Perenolde. That would be her final test of loyalty to you. If she succeeds, she would have a place in your retinue.>Astu’s message will be delivered and Pai will stay with the Frostwolves for now until she is ready for the mission. Eligius will prepare things here and provide support while you contact Beve Perenolde which can take weeks or longer.>She will deliver the message and then stay with the Frostwolves. The plan is just too dangerous and uncertain to be acted upon, she said it herself, she prefers to be in the mountains.>Other, write in.QM: I need to be a bit honest, I didn’t expect this much support for this idea. And like I said, some of the Pai stuff had to be moved to future updates, this too is already nearly 10k characters long.
