Seems a dangerous way to chart your life. [There's a sense of irony there. Hadn't he and Charles also charted their fate based on what a time-traveler had said? That wasn't a glimpse, though. It was someone's lived experience.]

Oh, it is. [she hums a little] A Seer's services are not cheap, and there are some men foolish enough to flaunt their wealth where they shouldn't. If they're particularly rotten or disliked, well . . . [she shrugs a shoulder]

All one needs is to be able to afford my services. [when she was a mercenary, at least; she wasn't sure what she was nowadays]

What was this prophecy, then?

End of the world shite. [she almost wants to leave it there, but . . . she sighs and pushes some hair behind her ear]

We were told that is why were brought back - every one of us had died, and the mage had sought all of us out to revive us. We did not have much detail beyond that, but he mentioned the seer, and - well, she has some legitimacy amongst the people I would work with. My cousin and I only went along with it because we wanted more answers.

[dryly] And I quite literally couldn't kill Maias, so it was not as though I had anything else to do.

[It's always the end of the world. He presses his lips together slightly at the mention of revivals, but neither of them are strangers to that anymore.]

And the answers weren't to your liking, I imagine.

No, they weren't. [she sighs, feeling her frustration start to boil up and shoves it back down] I found out my father was involved in . . . something, and it is because of that they have now involved me. The "prophecy" they fed us was a very elaborate lie, and the only truth of it all was that they needed us all alive and together.

[she scoffs] It's so dramatic and ridiculous.
grandstanding: (So glad we've almost made it)

Did you teach them a lesson?

[A violent one. Neither of them like to be used, and that would be his first inclination.]

[a grim smile spreads across her face]

My, it's as if you've forgotten what sort of person I really am, Erik. [there's a lilt in her voice despite the subject] That witch sent her men and whatever creatures she's brought to this world to kill us. In return, we killed them when we encountered them a second time, and I happily too the life of one of her guards.

[she rubs at her neck, almost unconsciously] I would've taken hers, too, had she not nearly killed me before I could act again.

[He expected no less. Tempest was a formidable opponent, and he'd almost pity anyone who earned her wrath. Almost.]

It's a shame you couldn't get that far, but it sounds as though you sorted the rest of them.

As much as we could, mm. [to say that she had had enough of all the nonsense was an understatement] When I return home, I will make sure to finish what I started.

[why do you encourage her]

My, thank you.
