All can be aided with an army. A little siege provides chaos and an enemy to polarize people and politicians." The man tapped his chin in thought. "I prefer the term 'taking care of loose ends,' if you don't mind. Not assassinating, per se..." He closed his eyes and snapped his fingers, grinning with madness. "Executing justice. An army wouldn't understand. I work small, taking care of the little things so I can prepare for the bigger plans." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, sometimes it is just simpler to seize a city with a sea of corpses and execute a king, rather than plan for months to kill the same man." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A city does me no good when I take care of who's in charge of it. I leave that to the officials to squabble over who should be who, while I take care of the things that matter most."

Random Bystander Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Cilliss looked around. Hm, where should I go now? She decided to enter the cave. She sighed, and then tripped. "Rusting iron on a hillside!" She cursed. She then heard voices. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cilliss went into a cavern, and found where the voices were coming from. She used her best innocent expression, and body language. She used her extensive knowledge of phycology to make herself look completely innocent and harmless. Because she was 13, it wasn't hard to do.

The voice sounded well articulated and fairly nasally when it spoke. "Entity 1-5-6-1, during your capture in the field it was reported that you understood and spoke english, is this true?" Rotcennoc took in his surroundings. He sat an underground facility less than a mile below the surface. A foot of concrete stood between him and yards and yards of stone. The only close by area was the hallway leading from a door located directly behind him, stretching on for about 20 yards with several blast-door-esque portals. The hallway connected to a larger maze of corridors and cells forming a giant underground complex. "Is that what this language is called?" he responded, his mind still mostly elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
