Just a Passing Assassin...

 Spiral: Honestly, moving around furniture and mattresses for a big cozy base together might be good.

Spiral: Think sticking with you and Steady might be our best bet.



Cabinetta: Sounds nice but... Any reason?

Spiral: She knows our job best, and Turnip can already watch over the Hunter, right?

Cabinetta: That’s true…

Spiral: Split into two groups in rooms next to each other? One where The Hunter can rest and Turnip can watch over? Fiddle might be able to help with that too, they’re all.. Booksmart.

Cabinetta: I do have a spot with a connecting doorway so we’re close. Split half and half… think that’d work.



The Hunter: Aye, I’d like a bit of quiet personally. Much as you’ve helped, got a headache from the poison still.

The Hunter: A connecting setup means folks can shift between areas easily. I think being split too far’s a big danger.

Spiral: There we go then.

Cabinetta: I’ll go propose such to everyone then, you two stay here while Turnip does a little check in.

The spider gets up and proceeds to talk to fill in Steady and Fiddle.

Turnip takes a quick look at you.



Turnip: Never seen the whole sucking out the poison thing actually work, you’re certainly special in that way.

Turnip: If you have anything you need though, don’t be afraid to ask.

The Hunter: Aye, he’s quite good at what he does from experience.



Turnip: I… try to be.

Spiral: So are you a doctor?

Turnip: Mm.. Medicine, potions, hexes, and otherworldly ailments. I’m Cabbinetta’s familiar from a decade ago. She summoned me to deal with a plague at the time.

Turnip: My service is done but I felt it was best to stay with her. She’s a very kind person and the castle is quite comfortable.

Turnip: Many townsfolk would take short term jobs helping maintain it for her services. It’s also where many festivals and meetings are held.

The Hunter: Mm. Don’t think he has a mean bone in her.

The Hunter: It’s refreshing that someone with this much power’s got no interest in abusing it. Guess that’s the nature of a lot of fiends. Avenging spirits so to speak.

Turnip: She’s absolutely had her darker days from what she told me, before she even had a name.

Turnip: Though you’d be best off asking her…

Cabinetta wraps up and returns.



Cabinetta: They’re filled in, we’re going to do what we can to make tonight comfortable for everyone.

Cabinetta: We’ll be splitting up work. Turnip will set up the Hunter’s resting area. Steady will set up the layout, she’s surprisingly strong it turns out.. Fiddle and I will handle refreshments and treats! Any job you’d like to assist in?
