[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5675574, member: 4936"] [I]Given. My soul's been given. Traded like a hog on Festday.[/I] Most days it was just the missing piece of her soul that felt cold. Today, it was the whole thing. Penny's bleak thoughts were interrupted by the nattering of others in the drab, dry grey grass of Histhaven. She looked around and answered with a humorless smirk, "Does it matter where we are? We're here, and not getting out anytime soon. Least, not so soon as we'd like." "And you there, priest of the Carrion Queen." It wasn't the most respectful of the titles for her new patronness, but Penny was still feeling spiteful. "I'll take you as ally in this, as ending curses is not what I usually find on my plate, but tell your mistress when you've occasion that...that..." Penny frowned. What missive for the Dread Mistress? What words from such a creature as herself would inspire a goddess to sympathy, anger, or even stir her to care? She scowled and shook her head. "...nevermind." The halfling; no bigger than a human child, though in every other way an adult woman, came through the grass which on her was thigh-high. She was dressed in dark grey clothes upon which was arrayed black leather straps that wrapped tightly around her form and were anchored at the small paldroons, leather gloves, belt and boots. Some magic must have been upon that armor to keep the strips of leather from overlapping each other and to make them protective. Her skin seemed a bit pale, lacking the kiss of the sun so common to her outdoors-loving people. Her hair, either dark brown or black...hard to tell in this dark domain...was gathered back tightly into a tail, accentuating the shape of her face and head. Around her shoulders was a sort of half-cloak made from the pelt of a wolf; a curiously barbaric touch for someone who otherwise seemed rather urban in demeanor. "Penny," she said as she came nearer. "I don't suppose [I]she[/I] told any of [I]you[/I] anything useful about this curse, or how to break it?" [/QUOTE]
