Eden had snakes 1
/Recording.
I had a long discussion with Erynne and by the end of it
one worry was over. It was a real worry, too. Things are so
much better the way they are.
Later, I started to wonder about something. Erynne had always
spoken as though she knew a lot about me. As a Talespinner of
her Clan she could have known a certain amount just from
whatever the historians of Icewind had recorded.
While we were ... discussing things, she said something implying
that she thought I might have learned about why she wouldn't
be at risk of pregnancy during the Icewind gig!
It might be possible to learn a thing like that during a gig, of course, if someone had strong enough feelings to sing about it. That wasn't what Erynne seemed to mean, though. I laughed when
I asked her what she thought the Icewind gig had been like,
for me to learn something like that.
She laughed, too, told me I'd said I'd ended up on friendly terms
with them, and that could cover a lot of ground.
Now I'm wondering if she's got any idea of what the gigs are
really like, and of just how ugly the whole thing can get.
The death of the Rakyrrah Demon had been almost pretty,
compared to most burnings - and I wasn't playing to the gallery
with that, anyway. It was focused on Erynne. I was actually trying to look like a hero; I wanted to impress her. (Accidently torching her appartment wouldn't have helped with that, but it still wasn't
comparable to most gigs.)
Icewind wasn't a real bad gig anyway. I don't think she
has any real idea of what a bad one is like - or just how ugly it can get and how much an operative may have to be hated just to do the job right.Or how many enemies...
This time we need to talk, but maybe she really needs to see what happens ...
that's probably not an option here, anyway.
