Inquisitor Greyfax (over vox): ‘It is deals like these that are the splinter in our souls. They seem but a pinprick at a time but they worry and gnaw until the wound festers and then all is corrupted and lost.’

Horst (over vox): ‘Do you have any other plan? I can remember nothing from the moment I came to this place to my awakening upon your arrival on Savaven’

Inquisitor Greyfax (over vox): ‘You met the witch before. What did she demand of you then?’

Horst shrugged.

Horst (over vox): ‘The same I expect, but I failed. Now I have a chance to rectify that failure, if you would relinquish this foolish notion of… of spiritual purity. We were chosen to be Inquisitors because we can carry the burden of such choices, not to shun it at the cost of others.’

Greyfax knew what she had to do, but she found it hard to master the words. She stared at the hag racking her thoughts for a plan that would regain control of the situation but there was nothing but acquiescence to the crone’s demands.

Inquisitor Greyfax: ‘Very well, Moriana. Send us your guide. I swear now, whether you have spoken right or wrong, I will return and kill you.’

Moriana: ‘And I assure you, child, that should you try to do so, it is not I that will fall. Do you think you are the first to make such an oath?’

Greyfax’s attention was directed at Horst. Perhaps as evidence of the crone’s mysterious intent she felt an itch in her soul, born of a deep loathing of all that had transpired. She desired nothing more than to quit this place as though leaving it might cleanse the stain and stench of it from her soul. Yet as she left Greyfax knew in her heart, she had crossed a line she had told herself she could not uncross.
