[Lyeos]

Tayeth just looks at Kate and shrugs.

"Probably some sort of religious thing."

[Playergamer]

"No, no, no. Not here."

Before Vlad can say anymore, his eyes glaze over, and he starts singing in a monotone voice. The other men who collapsed join in. Eventually, after a few minutes, Vlad shakily stands up.

"No. This isn't happening."

Vlad turns and buries his dagger in the tavern wall, before falling to his knees.

[Lyeos]

Tayeth seems to have, at some point during Vlad's song, wandered off. Probably because she assumes it's some sort of religious ritual, and she just doesn't "have time for that kind of thing, Vlad!"

Let's see... South, right?

Tayeth heads off to the northwest.

[Playergamer]

Vlad gets up, heading after Tayeth. His eyes are glowing yellow, his skin is almost pure white, and his daggers have turned to ice.

"Where are you going, Ms. Eera?"

[Lyeos]

"South! There's something I want to pick up in Auyecian!"

Tayeth, like always, doesn't seem to notice that anything is different about this situation.

[Playergamer]

"I'm afraid there's been a change of plans. We need to head north."

[Lyeos]

"No."

Tayeth keeps walking northwest, still thinking it's south.

[Playergamer]

"Ms. Eera, look at me. Do I look like I'm asking?"

[Lyeos]

Tayeth takes a few more steps as she thinks about this, then stops, and the land around her seems to become... Darker, somehow. Shadows grow larger, colors become dull, and even the sun seems to be dimmer.

"Have you considered that the problem I have with this change of plans is that you aren't asking?"

[Playergamer]

"There isn't TIME for asking, Ms. Eera! Do you not understand what is at stake here?"

[Lyeos]

"If there's time to argue with me, there's time to ask. And no, I honestly have no idea what's at stake."

[Playergamer]

Not-Vlad facepalms.

"Have you ever heard of Sverrir? The Reaper of Men?"

[Lyeos]

"Well it's true!"

"Nope. Does he handle public executions or something?"

[Playergamer]

Not-Vlad facepalms with his other hand.

"Ms. Eera, do you know what a dragon looks like? Imagine something five times bigger, with a cult of hundreds, that wants to burn the entirety of the north. Now imagine that messages have been sent to hundreds, if not thousands of heroes and warriors, including Vlad here, to find him and destroy him."

[Lyeos]

"Oh. So it's one of those end-of-the-world type things, then?"

Tayeth hugs not-Vlad, and everything that she was causing returns to normal.

"Why are you talking about yourself in the third person?"
