We had a look at the records over at the Queen's Legate to see which (read: whose) houses went down the hole, in case that has some significance. The archivist there seems to have the hots for Valgai.
When going to speak with a Father Servola, people threw lanterns at us, and we ended up in a fight with some cultists? They weren't being very nice to us, at any rate.
Then some kind of "special" (in a Chosen One kind of sense) 6-year-old child proclaims Murmei is evil. This is a surprise to everyone, because being a bit of an idiot? Sure. Evil? Umm ...? Valgai's Witch Sight confirms this - the belt makes it look like Murmei's some kind of corrupt, evil thing. Perhaps it's a good idea to un-bind himself from that belt at the nearest opportunity?
“He’s not smiling.”
“We don’t know that! It SOUNDED like a smiling ‘oh I see’.”
“Everyone’s someone’s cuppa tea.”
“But this cup is laced with poison.”
“We thought Valgai was Biden, but he’s actually Trump.”
“No, that’s unfair.”
“Okay, we wanted him to be Sanders, but he’s actually Biden.”
“I have high hopes! Don’t ruin them!”
“If a spider could roll all of its eyes, all of its eyes would roll at that statement.”
“Are we SURE we’re the good guys?”
“Guys! It’s a Chosen One! It’s a Chosen One! And it’s not me!”
“Dark Lord Valgai, over to you.”
“It’s like STD in a bottle. And that’s not a fun way to get an STD.”
“As soon as Valgai started making deals with clergy, I wondered if he had Booker withdrawal.”
“You WANT it to snow?!”
“Yes!”
“You can take the Swede out of Sweden, I guess …”
To be continued!
