"Why are you telling me all this?" you ask.
"Because..." she says. "I want you on my side. You caught a brief glimpse of how chaotic the town was when the Vallakovich family was in charge. But they have a long history in the town - thier roots in Vallaki are much stronger than that of my house. As an outsider with powers unknown to those in Barovia, you could be a useful asset in making sure this victory is not temporary."
"What do you propose?" you ask.
"My proposal is simple: once the dust has settled in the next few weeks, I wipe your record clean and ensure you never face prison or execution for what you did to the Baron, and in return, I can call upon you at any time to ensure my grip on Vallaki does not weaken."
This bodes well. "And what if I were to refuse?" you add, just so you understand all your options.
"I would no longer have any interest in keeping you free. You must understand, it's a risk for me to even be talking to you right now," she says. "If we do not work together, I would have no choice but to send you back to prison to await justice for the attempted murder of Baron Vargas Vallakovich. That is the way Vallaki operates, and not even I can overturn that without incentive to."
You are torn. Why did she put so much effort into turning you to her cause if she was just going to resort to threatening you? You were almost starting to think she was friendly. The mark of a true politican, you suppose. You're really not sure what the right course of action here is.
Fiona Wachter obviously knows a lot of information. Maybe you can ask her about your sister. Or some suspicious things you saw earlier when making your way to the inn from the jail. What will you settle on?
You can converse with Fiona Wachter freely (no need to settle on a vote; 1 reply = 1 question):
