[QUOTE="Nordom, post: 9156892, member: 7038274"] The towering entity's glowing eyes flared subtly at Izek's question. When it responded, the deep voice, though intimidating, betrayed no deceit. [I][COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)]"I AM A KEEPER, A WATCHER, AND GUIDE . . . BUT NO DEVIL, DESPITE WHAT YOU MAY THINK."[/COLOR][/I] Its form seemed to swell, as if being inflated of air. [I][COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)]"AS FOR MY PRICE, I OFFER A CHOICE:[/COLOR][/I] [COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)][I]THE FIRST[/I][/COLOR][I][COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)] IS NOTHING YOU WILL MISS. ONLY PERMISSION TO CLAIM WHAT IS ALREADY MINE."[/COLOR][/I] A gnarled, claw-like hand emerged from Judex's sleeve, gesturing to each companion in turn. [I][COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)]"AFTER DEATH, YOUR BODIES WILL REMAIN YOUR OWN. BUT YOUR DEPARTED SOULS BECOME MY DOMAIN[/COLOR][/I] It then leaned forward, pink orbs gleaming intently beneath its cowl. [I][COLOR=rgb(251, 160, 38)]"OR AID THIS GATETOWN. PERFORM ACTS OF GENEROSITY AND STABILITY. HELP PREVENT ITS FALL INTO THE ABYSS. DO THIS, AND I SHALL ALSO GRANT YOU PASSAGE."[/COLOR][/I] The terms were plain, if unsavory. It likely lacked the means or desire to directly stabilize the gatetown itself, so Judex extended the burden, explaining the reason for it wanting to bargain. The options were distasteful, but openly stated - eternal servitude, or saving a town vile enough to warrant its own damnation. Either path led home. Judex betrayed no overt threat. For now, it was solely on the group to accept or refuse its toxic bargain.[ATTACH type="full"]303620[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
