Maybe, as your cult grows, you can help him look for her.>Try out your GOTHIC WILES again“Your sister, hm..?” You remark–a goal more noble than yours, one you can yet appeal to. “Do you have any more details on her appearance, her manner? I can keep an eye out for her as we progress north.”
“Hmm..” The wolf looks deep in consideration, his head low. “She is a half-vampire: pale hair, willowy build. She wields two swords–one scarlet and one ebony–BLUT and BLITZ. She is–.. she was in a bad way, by-and-large cold and miserable to all who spoke to her. If she’s not drowning in foul wine, she’s indulging in undead whores. You will know her by the smell.”
“This is quite a lot of trouble to go through for someone who’s “cold and miserable.’” Your hand creeps up onto his back–a pat of reassurance, another, more subtle attempt at your gothic wiles.
“She’s my sister.” The lycan does not seem to notice your touch, and if he does, he does not object to it. “It’s my duty to protect her.”
“So.. our goals are in alignment, then. We both want to get to QUARTIER DE DEVOTION.” You leap on the chance. “You want to save your big sister, and–presumably–avenge your loss. I want to topple this mad cult and institute my own–a much less violent, more peaceful one. We can help one another out, so–.. we ought to ally, no..?“
The wolf’s scars sharpen as he pulls away from you. “I know what you’re doing, witch.” His voice is a low snarl. “But if you would lend your aid, fine. You can follow me. Do not break my trust.”
Your hand falls. Your tone there seems to have upset him.
Your party continues along in silence until you come to the end of the churchyard, from where the frozen grass gives way to stone brick pavement. The street ahead forks along a row of buildings–down one avenue is the RUE DE GUILLOTINE and the RUE DE GIBBET.
“It’s frightening street names everywhere in QUARTIER DE PUNITION.” The invalid grumbles beneath his breath.
