video - un: starkov / dated 11/12

( the video opens on Alina looking winded. the focus is on her face, sweat trickling down her brow, strands of hair plastered to her cheeks. she's looking past the camera at something else. behind her is a dimly lit hallway, only the wall and light on the wall barely peeking out past her face. )

Be careful if you're invited to any parties these days. ( her eyes flick to the camera, then she lowers the camera to reveal her upper chest. just below her throat, across her collar bone, is a deep, angry slash that still drips past the neckline of her dress.

she raises the camera to her face again, her eyes darting around herself rather than watching the screen. )
That was meant to be my throat. Others weren't so lucky.

The Brotherhood left a message after the slaughter for the families seeking alliance with Macaluso and Taravast. ( her eyes flick back to the camera. ) Basically, don't do it; this is the only warning. ( she searches her memories a bit for the wording- ) "Never seek alliances that could imperil the Brotherhood's interests again."

( she sighs, closes her eyes and shakes her head before reaching up to wipe the strands of hair from her brow. ) I could use some help. I caught one. ( she flips the camera around to show the hallway behind her lined with the carnage of four undead envoys in pieces on the floor. ) But I still need help to clean up.

Thank the Goddess you're alive.

I can heal. And help burn the bodies.

Of course.

[His heart aches with such empathy that he doesn't know what to say about it for a good two minutes]

It's terrible, everything that's happened. We'll keep fighting.

[What a great first impression: young girl, bloodied and tired and looking far too used to this; almost instinctively, Hermione feels a sense of recognition there. (In other words #mood)

She files the information away: don't attend parties, and check before messing with the Brotherhood. Also perhaps rely less on her wand, since that cut looks gnarly.

What comes instead is:]


You will at least let someone dress the wound, yes?
reparo: (accio)

[ Someone is glad they haven't been publicly supporting Macaluso, beyond the connections her dead 'father' imparted on her...

What a gruesome scene. It makes her stomach turn. Alayne has A Lot of questions, but first thing's first... One must remember manners, even when talking to a tomboy. She'll wait awhile to respond, so that Alina can receive the assistance she obviously needed. ]


I am glad they did not succeed in taking your life. Did you receive the help you requested?

You handle such conflict and injury with remarkable grace. Are you accustomed to violence?

No, forgive me such a brash question. I do not mean to offend. I only meant to offer my admiration and concern.

This... 'Brotherhood'. Necromancers? And they dislike Macaluso and his plans for alliance?

Interesting.

For a city that outwardly refuses to be invaded by the undead, they really have so many of them floating around. Way too many.

If it weren't so fantastical to believe, I would start to think the city is just being ruled by the same people since the beginning of time, simply jumping from body to body when theirs become too weak so that they can continue to hold power. It certainly sounds like that's what they're trying to d with the current Doxe.

And how does that make them any better than the likes of Unhalad or Anurr?

Are you planning on tracking them down?

[ He thought that might have been what she meant. Hopefully this will go better than the last one.

He appreciates that she lets him know how his brother is without him having to ask. Diego is a capable fighter, but he has a tendency to get in over his head. Having him involved complicates how to handle this. ]


Are they able to talk?

[ The man she captured, not Diego. Assuming no one else has stepped in to volunteer yet. ]
