“You said it was the one with the weird horn and fangs right…? Yeah, I know her…” Face on the Wall says sadly, “I like the other one better but… Master chooses his own friends.”
Face on the Wall and Lockepicke sit in a mourning silence for a bit before the mare asks what he is going to do now, and says if he wants he can come with her.
“No… No what if you say is true then I can’t let this mare out of the tower. I can’t stop her, but I can delay her for a bit…” Face on the Wall says with a sigh, “It’s what he would have wanted.”
The enchantment then fades from the placard, and doesn’t reappear despite Lockepicke yelling for him. She reluctantly turns and gallops back towards the town.
The thief is a mixture of sad and elated. Elated from escaping both the Order of the Arrow and a weird demon summoners, as well as with all the loot she got.
She steps into the bar where this all started and immediately orders a drink. Right as she gets it she glances over to a side table and sees two familiar faces.
“Would you lighten up already. We did all we could. Now we just have to wait for that spellbreaker or whatever it was you asked for.” Hauberk says, downing a pint.
“That wizard is plotting something unspeakable at this very moment.” Lucian says in an annoyed snap, “And that fool of a mayor doesn’t believe me.”
“He said he was going to alert the guard and stuff.” Hauberk says shrugging.
“Those lumpy guards have never fought a thing like a demon before. They should be boarding the gates and gathering supplies.” Lucian says, taking a quick gulp from his mug, “When this is over we shall have words with that mayor. I have a feeling he may be involved in this as well.”
What does Lockepicke do?
