>>5736132You take to the skies, illuminated only by dim starlight and by a cloud-shrouded half-moon; your <Moonbeam> and the ancient Sword of Endymion will both be at reduced strength tonight, compared at least to a full moon. To deal with the Prince’s protectors, you will need to plan your strategy wisely.
As you approach the window, though, it is not only strategy you grapple with, however: it is your goal.
>+Human Empathy>True Love: EkaterineYou find your mind drifting back to Infiltrator Roth—your treacherous, stubborn old Dragonblood of a father—and to your Beloved One, Ekaterine. When push came to shove, and you had ever reason in the world and every justification to kill the red-scaled Reptilian Infiltrator… You couldn’t do it. Slaying your own father felt WRONG in some unplaceable way, though in truth you hardly known the elder male. You remember, too, the grief-stricken features of Eka, beside her father’s tomb—the desperate desire for Alexos’ return, since she already knew her father would not. Now, in service to the Dark Gods and to her own royal ascension, you soar on leather wings to slay her sole remaining sibling… And her sister-in-law, and her niece. You're going to rip away the last of her familial ties (save your own unborn offspring) and leave her the sole survivor of Hawksong's royal family.
…That IS still your plan, isn’t it?
>Yes—you will do what must be done, for the Dark Gods and the New Age of Darkness>No—you will find another way, though it means defying the Gods Themselves[If you choose the latter, please specify if you have an alternative course of action in mind. This is also a good time to discuss and propose strategies for your approach—weapons, spells, techniques or strategies, etcetera.]
