Heroist
- Thick, sturdy wood, just what's needed. - Having "borrowed" a couple of quality pieces from the regional reserves, Luciferia, with deft movements of her hands and the tools within them, made two long stakes, but instead of sharpening one end, she smoothed it out, making it rounded. - You know, my lady, why they aren't sharpened? So the punished don't die too quickly, of course! The body doesn't need to be torn, pierced, or broken to inflict maximum pain, heh-heh-heh!! - She also greased these poles with some kind of oil, presumably for the same purpose. - Well? What are you standing around for — get on with it!
The mind-controlled wretches drove the wooden stakes into the ground, and then, despite their own bodies' protests, set off on their final journey. When the task was done, the Sidhe woman dispelled the control over them.
- I give them a day or two, but you, my lady, don't hesitate — you can do whatever your heart desires with them. Aaah... What music to the ears these harmonious moans and sobs are.
— A master's work, worthy of praise. I hope we managed to recreate the atmosphere of our homeland for our dear guests. If the spider-woman and the figures had kept them company in their revelry, existence would have reached its climax. But alas, miracles do not happen in this world.
After observing the faces contorted with grimaces of agony for a while, Alsira sighed and turned her gaze to the servant:
— Deep down, I was troubled by the realization that pleasure at the sight of torment would seize my being. But now I see that the nature of Sidhe power is beyond the grasp of a mere mortal. — Tilting the head of one of the victims with the tip of her spear, she made a lightning-fast cut across its neck. Blood seeped from the thin wound, filling a vial prepared for the future. — ..I will have to seek answers to the riddles of birth elsewhere. — She muttered to herself as a final remark.
— I have no desire to interrupt your amusement, but has your acquaintance from the north informed you of any upcoming plans? I would like to possess the readiness that comes with foresight.
