Vistari watches the death with a grin. 

It was fascinating how they all reacted individually to death. This child was clearly hallucinating. No understanding of the truth. 

Interesting.

She couldn't wait for the rest.

He smiles right back. "And what do you suggest? I don't have a whole lot to give, albeit I could just shoot you here and now and be done with it"

“By all means.”

The man continued without acknowledging the threat further. “Your group has a lot it can give me. Entertainment! The deal is as such: sacrifice one of your own to me, or I kill you all.”

The Greenspine watched in surprise.

"You were a worthy opponent, young one," it finally said. "But you were wrong on one thing. I am NOT the Gamemakers' monster. I belong to no one but myself. I will remember you... and remember how good you tasted." It looked up at Murr, who was presumably still watching from a nearby tree. @The Aspiring Archivist

"You," the Greenspine said. "I have decided to spare you today, although not for long. I want you to spread the word to your fellow tributes. All shall fear me, and no one, not even the Gamemakers, is above my hunger." With that, it lifted Maj's body onto its back and stalked off to find a place where it could enjoy its meal.

Well Maj is dead. Dang it.

Pellee laced her fingers together, watching the tribute's death blankly. She waved at a servant.

"That one had connections with one of the previous tributes, am I correct?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"One from the Cosmere Games?"

"Yes."

She leaned back, and her fingers rested gently on her chin. "Well. I suppose with a bias like that, Maj would believe this to be the truth.

"These people don't realize the monstrosity in their own midst. The fact that they think we are the monsters..."

She laughed. "We send our Peacekeepers to protect them from their own criminals. They forget that we provide them with everything they have, protected them during several wars, and they still believe that we are the monsters.

"Fools. They are the ones who took from us, while we only gave to them."

Definitely the words of a non-tyrant.

"I don't really care if you do. I just want these people to suffer."

The Greenspine paused. "Good. That's good..." It slithered off into the sea, having finished with Maj, looking to find a new target.

Another person in a boat approaches them.

The person had weapons, and did not look particularly nice.

"Hello? Are you three lost?"

The man looks at him. “A lot of things. More time, mostly. I am afraid I am one whose life has come crashing down from a single mistake. But… who are you? Where do you go? I may be able to make a deal with you.”

He smirks. This i can deal with. "Oh?" he says in a quiet voice. "Well then, what can i help you with? i have many allies in many places, and they may help you, as will i, albeit for the right price."

The man grinned in a predatory way. “Oh. It’s not that type of deal, you see. These, these are my waters. And I believe there should be a price for using them, yes?”

"Does that mean you work for the Gamemakers? This is their arena." Winter asks curiously.

"And what happens if I shoot?" Squall is smirking right back. "It seems as though we are at a standoff."


Sharlin didn't spare the new man a glance, instead she was staring at Squall, eyes hard and cold. 

"Squall? Just shoot him and give me the gun, okay?"

She leaned in very close and gave an uncanny smile.

"I need that back, dear cousin. I need it back as soon as possible."

Sharlin . . .

"Be quiet," She hummed, eyes now focused to the gun in Squalls hand.

Yep, Sharlin can't kill people outside of personal defense because of her deal with Forrest, but if something pushes her too far over the edge she can and will break the deal.

He shoots once, then twice, one bullet hitting shoulder, the other one (you can choose)

Not waiting for the man's reaction, she immediately held out her hand for the gun.

When the bullets near the man, (the other approaching the arm) the skin nearest split and vines snake out, taking hold of the bullet and spitting it out. Once they did this, they withdrew, the skin coming together again.

”Now that we got that out of the way, care to deal?”

Winter groans inwardly. Of course the mystery man was a spore eater. He looked uneasily at Sharlin. The man was demanding that one of them must die and Sharlin was trying to reclaim her weapon. Winter  tenses, preparing for action.

Sharlin ignored both of them.

"Squall."

"The gun."

The Greenspine pokes its head out of the water nearby, "What the hell?" And leaves.

He raises a single hair on his eyebrow. "what, you trying to gross me to death?"
