Pursuit of the Sun 1.2

- Raul, is she really that scared of me? Is she telling the truth? - Voldemar asks, stepping aside.

-- Maybe not "that" scared, but she definitely respects me. Overall, she's not really lying: well, not exactly lying, not every word is the truth, she's just chattering like a magpie, maybe some things happened slightly differently, but she's not trying to deliberately lie.

- What do you think, will she be useful? I don't know why I was summoned to the Stronghold, but my gut tells me it's not just "to have a beer with the regent." Maybe her sorceress "tricks" will turn out to be useful. Or, at worst, she'll be cleaning the church. What do you think?

-- He's the regent of our faith, after all. Maybe he really wants to get to know her personally and officially express his gratitude. We're all already a little familiar with him. As for the witch, it's up to you, but making her clean floors is definitely not an option – she has too much ambition and cunning, so you need to keep an eye on her so she doesn't run away. She might actually be useful, especially since she's not an insignificant person in the slums – the outcasts will bow at her feet when they find out she's your slave.
