Weapons of war
Aug. 20th, 2003 12:26 amI've met Grant Douglas in several dimensions now, and he's always been good at what he does. I was prepared for almost any reaction when I explained the situation, but he just nodded.
He told me that his boarding house wasn't warded when we arrived, and we talked about doing the job together, later. He'd arranged to go to a wedding with one of his guests and was just leaving, but casting those wards would be tricky.
The wrong wording was likely to keep me out, as Dementria had found, earlier. It might even trap me in the building. Keeping out mental influences, illusion spells and thralls might not be a good idea - they were our enemy's weapons - but they're my weapons, too - and now I was in range I thought I could make her a very unhappy snake.
I didn't know how well things would work out, but after the full moon ended Erynne woke looking relaxed for the first time in too long...

The trick is to get the right emotions to surface... Old Snaky's lived long enough to have piled up a lot of misery. She could find herself a real unhappy snake.

time with not much to do but be afraid.

do that...I'd love to pay her back for
some of the stuff she's pulled.
*kisses you, then slips arm around your
waist*
Later. Right now, have I told you how
wonderful you are?
