"Kill me then. Join me in the murder that you condemn me for. Take my life, and I will see you in Hell."
Xath snaps her notepad shut and emerges from her shadowed corner, stepping between Justice and L'Aurel to speak for the first time. Her face is stern and her eyes are like ice; cold and hard.
"Oh, don't worry Arissa, we won't kill you. As much as I would love to send your soul to the shadowless afterlife that is the light, to watch you squirm caught out of the darkness, it's too good for you.
Oh I know your master has tricks. We saw that with Alaine. Death is no barrier to his hold over you, and you see it as your escape. But we won't allow that to happen. Despite what you think, we are not unintelligent. But you know who is? You.
You think you can fool us with your poorly concealed lies? Try to get us to see connections that aren't there? Well you have another thing coming. I know more about the Bluestar than you ever will, including everything that he knows pertaining to your master, so you'd better think twice before trying to pull another fast one on me. Or I promise you will regret it.
I'm not threatening you with death, Arissa. I'm threating you with life and the miserable tortures which we call kindness and compassion. If you don't tell us the truth, and now, I promise you will live a very very long life. And you will never rejoin your master. And when old age finally claims your last breath, you will be sent to the shadowless afterlife of the light, and you will face your ultimate judgement there. Then no master will be able to save you but the true goodness above.
So unless you want to spend the next eternity in my good company, I suggest you begin telling us the truth."
