"Zarissa? Do you know me?"
"Yes."
"We used to travel with someone who would help you take care of Arvie when he had these nightmares, so that you could rest. He's not with us any more, but... can I help?"
"Yes. You can stop taking him to your whore friends."
((Oh, okay, yep. Cool. She knows who I am. Awesome. Fuck.))
"Oh god. They're... not really my friends, but okay. Noted. No more whorehouses."
"So you... you see all of that?"
"I try not to pry, but I don't really have a choice, sometimes."
"Okay, fuck. Sorry. I uh... well, then. I suppose you know... pretty much everything, then."
"I uh... I know I'm not the best role model for Arvie."
"Mhm."
"But I hope you see that I do care about him. I am trying to help him. When I found him, he was living in a chicken coop. I know I'm not perfect, but he had nobody."
"Except Javyth. Javyth's a good person. Good role model. Better than me."
"He is."
...
"I didn't have the honor of meeting Arboraxas before he died, but I've heard the stories. He seems like an asshole."
"He was."
"Wait - if you thought he was an asshole, what did you see in him in the first place?"
"I suppose it was just... fire. Passion. He had the courage to challenge me. He pissed himself in fear, but he still challenged me."
"Arboraxas pissed himself?"
"He did. But he still faced me, which was impressive."
"I was bored, and it was something new and interesting, so I went along with it. Had a little adventure."
"So what happened? Did you realize you saw the wrong things in him, or did he change?"
"No, I just... I became complacent. The others saw an opportunity, and they took it."
"Did he... help them?"
"No, it was just my complacency."
"Your son. He... he's a beautiful person. He's got all that same passion and fire you saw in Arboraxas, but he uses it for good, he uses it to help people."
"What I mean is... Arvie turned out really great, and I know there are a lot of great things that he sure as fuck didn't get from his dad. I imagine that means you must be really incredible."
"Flattery will not serve you well in here."
"Fine, fine, okay. I'm just saying. Thank you."
...
"We're trying to get you out of here. We know a little bit about what happened, with the mask. Do you remember anything that might be useful?"
"Not really. I just remember being cursed by some being."
"Right, yeah. Something about a black pyramid that needed souls, or something."
"Yes."
"Do you remember anything about the being that cursed you?"
"Not really. It was just some deep, distant entity. I remember a hand, and a single eye."
"That's... a little more information than we had a few minutes ago. That's good. That might help."
...
"We... really need to get you out of here. He misses you. He needs you. He needs... someone better than me."
"He misses me?"
"Like you wouldn't imagine. He loves you so much. One of the very first things he ever told me is how he wishes he could have met you, and how much he wishes he could see you again. He remembers your song."
...
"You are so small. So weak. Look at you. You need to eat something."
"Owww, fuck, okay, yeah, I got it. Eat more. I will."
"You'd get along well with my dad."
"Does he call you weak?"
"He has a little couth about it, but yeah. Tells me to eat more, too."
"Sounds like a smart man. You should listen to him."
"Yeah, I figured you'd like him. He's big on all sorts of weird rituals, too."
"The rituals? Those were mostly Arboraxas' doing."
"Thank god you're not into them, too. I have been trying so hard to tell Arvie how silly some of them are."
"Good."
"What do you... what'd'ya think about this one Arvie wants to do with me and Javyth? The one with the Shor and the Talum and the brotherhood and the sword and shield and stuff."
"I'm not too familiar with it. Sounds like Arboraxas, though."
"Yeah, I figured."
...
"Zarissa... is there anything I should stop doing so you don't like... kill me when you get out of here? Other than the whorehouses, that is."
"I do want grandchildren."
"Of course, yeah! No problem there - I won't get between Arvie and all of that."
"Oh?"
"Yeah, of course! I don't own Arvie, and he doesn't own me. We're both totally free to do whatever we want with other people. Doesn't bother either of us one bit."
"You're a bad liar."
...
"Zarissa. You seem a lot healthier than how Trevan described you."
"I have my moments."
"Well, I'm glad I finally got to catch one of them."
"Thank you for taking care of my boy."
"Zarissa? Do you know me?"
"Yes."
"We used to travel with someone who would help you take care of Arvie when he had these nightmares, so that you could rest. He's not with us any more, but... can I help?"
