The Room

*Lecter nods*
Lecter: I do not fear harm, or even death.
*He looks at Karma for a moment before turning back to Mergoux*
Lecter: What exactly is Tiaz? Clearly not a human.

The Room

*Lecter raises a hand to stop Karma from attacking Mergoux*
Lecter: Choose. Your words. Carefully. That tongue would be Karma's, were it not for me being here. She saved you from slavery, and killed two of Tiaz's minions.
*The Devil Hunter sighs*
Lecter: You can't handle him alone, that much has been made apparent. Now, we can stop trading insults. You need to recover, until then I have other priorities to take care of. When you are able, we will find Tiaz and taken his head.

*Karma glances at Lecter*
She is wrong about him. About what he is.

The Room

*Lecter sighs and Karma growls*
Lecter: I know what transpired. And no, the beast walks the lands still. After you are safe and no longer in my keeping, I will finish it off. Tiaz will be after that.

Dare to address me like that again, and there will not be a chance for that crippled mortal to capture you again.

The Room

*Lecter turns his head to see Mergoux as he walks*
Lecter: That... man, we had a disagreement. Either he killed himself summoning some creature, or he has a Devil Arm and a way to hide it. Regardless, I came as soon as it was possible. You cannot expect me to leave someone to die like that, can You?

*Karma's lip curls at Mergoux's outburst, but remains silent for now*

The Room

*Lecter shakes his head*
Lecter: Simple human isn't the entire story, Halia. But yes, it wasn't easy to get Karma's loyalty. Shall we continue? We can talk along the way.
*With that, the Devil Hunter turns back around and starts walking towards the room*

The Room

*Karma nods*
We will find something then. No favor goes unanswered.
*Karma stops suddenly and tilts her head*
*Lecter approaches the trio, and nods his head. His wounds are now fully healed, but his outfit is still a mess compared to what it used to be*
Lecter: Lecter, Devil Hunter. A shame that I had to use Karma to save you, instead of being there myself.

The Room

*Karma nods*
You do. But I have no need for followers, not that Lecter would allow it.
*The familiar leads the trio towards the direction of the Room, and more accurately, towards a waiting Lecter*

*The Devil Hunter is resting against a tree, thinking about the source of the lights in the forest, and also planning his next steps while he waits*

The Room

*Karma nods and the smoke around Karma moves on front of the trio before Karma throws the mineball*
Interesting.
*The smoke wraps around the Wood Elf and Mergoux, and lifts them slightly above the ground*
Lecter should meet us before we reach your home. He prefers to see things firsthand.

The Room

*Karma nods and disappears as a cloud of smoke, before returning with Mergoux's bag*
Take what you need.
*The familiar sets it down next to Mergoux*

The Room

*Karma nods, satisfied that Mergoux backed down, along with the Wood Elf's goading*
*Without another word, Karma turns back to the rock and frowns*
I cannot clear this to get you through. My method of leaving would kill you both. Is there another exit, or something more... viable, than using my realm to escape?
*It hurts Karma to say 'viable, but she hides it well*
