Rezzie, you sigh, taking a few cautious steps towards the rebellious devil, this demon she’s talking about chasing after? It’s <span class="mu-i">gone</span>! Sensing another rousing speech, your pals give you some space.
Well, that or they aren’t keen on getting immolated today.
“Which. Is. Why. I’m. Gonna. Go. <span class="mu-s">FIND IT!</span>” Snarls Rezalith! “<span class="mu-s">MORON!</span>”
Does she listen to anyone other than herself!? Mor, you sigh with dwindling patience, the ritual: how long ago did iit happen?
“A day ago,” He replies as if telling you what time it is, “Couldn’t have been longer than that.”
So assuming her prize didn’t bleed out in the snow already, you continue after giving the ranger an appreciative nod, that thing could have picked any random direction and flown away… and her plan is to, what, do that too? And if she <span class="mu-i">does</span> find it she’s just gonna try to beat it up? When has <span class="mu-i">THAT</span> ever worked!?
“Better than whatever it is <span class="mu-i">YOU’RE</span> planning!” She fires back! You brace your Limbo muscles for some fireballs, but none come… peeking through your fingers covering your eyes, you have to give your peepers a good rub when you see Rezzie looking a bit…
<span class="mu-i">Contrite?</span>
“Anton… I’m… I’ve been <span class="mu-i">trying</span>... <span class="mu-i">REALLY,</span> <span class="mu-s">REALLY</span> hard, okay?” Her threatening posture slumps as she stares you dead in the eye.
“Back in that pervert’s Wizard Tower you told me I should focus on <span class="mu-i">freedom</span>,” Rezzie continues, her reptilian eyes glimmering as the word leaves her lips! “That was… that was probably the smartest thing you ever said… and <span class="mu-i">will</span> say. Ever.”
You open your mouth to reply, but Rezalith beats you to the punch! “I won’t pretend traveling with you has been all bad… I’ve had some fun, made some friends-”
The hellion freezes up and scrambles to correct herself!
“<span class="mu-s">FRIEND</span>, a-and for a while it seemed like we had similar goals, but now?” You can’t quite see it, but you’re pretty sure she shrugged. “I’m beginning to think I was wrong.”
Something about the way Rezalith speaks to you flips a switch in your head… one that makes your blood <span class="mu-i">BOIL</span>. Why isn’t she screaming at you!? Hurling fireballs!?
When no one else steps in to back you up, the devil seizes the moment. “I know I don’t always do what everyone else wants me to do… but you guys don’t always do what <span class="mu-i">I</span> wanna do, so…” Rezzie shifts from foot to foot as her eyes wander all over the ground searching for an answer. “So maybe <span class="mu-b">this is for the best?”</span>
The words hit you like a runaway freight train… they’re familiar–<span class="mu-i">Too</span> familiar– and something about them sets you off like a firecracker!
Rezzie, you laugh, she… she does <span class="mu-i">NOT</span> want to run into Liz, okay? She’s <span class="mu-s">MEAN.</span> And <span class="mu-s">LEAN</span>! And possibly <span class="mu-s">GREEN!</span>
