Duties?

Who are you?

[So that he can find you and try to kill you, yeah...]

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

[She does not answer immediately, carrying on with what she's doing. Eventually, however, a rather coldly amused voice touches the teneka,]

You are new to the city.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

Yes, a new prisoner.

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

Ah, another child come to mewl over his misfortunes, I see.

[She was one of the first to awaken here, she has heard all the complaints and thinks poorly of them.]

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

[There's a mental scoff right there.]

What duties do you have?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

Duties to my gods, those that walk the city, and those beyond.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

That entails what, exactly?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

Sacrifice. Prayers.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

Sacrifices?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

[She tilts her head.]

Animal sacrifice.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

You are a priestess, then?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

Of sorts, though my rites are my own.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

And why do you feel that it is necessary to do any of that?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

To incur good favor.

[teneka]

[icaruschmicarus]

Have you succeeded in that?

[teneka]

[solarpurpura]

Yes. You will find gods who walk the streets here.
