My only wish is to write what my audience enjoys.

Act 104: invitation.

Spoiler

Monkai embraced zera in their kitchen he had missed her during her trip home something about a emergency, he had honestly didn't care he just wanted her back.

"I should leave more often... " zera joked kissing her man. "I've had a odd week, Scorn didn't help " monkai replied licking her tongue. Their reunion was interuppted a loud knock on their door.

"Hmm that must be the courier with my new night gown." Zera said rushing to the door monkai threw his hands up in frustration of the ruined moment.

XXx
"Hello Ragin residence how-" zera said before noticing it was Galatea.

"Howdy quennie " Galatea said nonchalantly as if they were friends since childhood.

"Ah miss Galatea pleasure to see you again. Has coldi gotten into a another fight. "

"No but I require your man for a spell "

XXx

They sat in the study, zera poured tea into Galatea's cup "it's a rivaini brew monkai has been working on please enjoy." She said proud of her man's culinary skills.

"Thanks but don't drink tea puts me in the mood " Galatea said winking at monkai. Monkai wiped his face, "I don't need this right now.. " he thought it was bad enough she ruined his chance to lay with his wife but to imply her intentions in front of her..

Zera chuckled awkwardly discovering her implication and sat on the armrest next to her man putting her arm around him staking her claim. "You have business "

"My my seems directness is hereditary among Ragins .." Galatea said folding her legs "I wanted to invite you both to my organization. I believe you will be assets to my cause."

"What makes you think we want to join you. We don't deal in slaves and that job was merely a favor returned. I appall slavery and slavers. " monkai said. "Agreed" zera added.

Galatea chuckled at their united front. She watch how zera stood by her man... how she willingly followed his lead, wondering how big her fury was to entrap this woman.... "I'm afraid I'll have to insist. I'd hate to tell magister vallenious of your status as a couple." She said teasingly.

"Go ahead I'll tell him myself" zera said, she had heard from coldi of Galatea 's penchent for divulging secrets but secrets only had power if one gave it.

Galatea smiled at zera opening and closing her legs. "Oh you I like... your strong, confident, sultry, open about sex but believe in monogamy." Galatea said picking out her key traits. "You claim to love your man but are willing to kill him,you regret meeting him for he stole your first love but he has his. You want to share him but covet him for yourself "

Zera looked her dead on unimpressed with her analysis "so you know my personality good for you... if that's all." She said not backing down.

"You may wish to check on your man" Galatea said pointing to a unconscious monkai. Zera rose up shaking him. She felt his pulse it was slow and faint " what have you done to him!" Zera said fire erupting from her hands ready to burn the house down

" just a bit of perfume... don't hit your head by the way.." galatea said watching zera stumble and fall on monkai's lap. "Tsk tsk what a unseemly sight... why didnt they just listen now we do this the hard way

Act 105 : unwelcome guest

Spoiler

zera's vision began to return. She remembered talking to Galatea and monkai being unconscious but she found herself tied to her chair and monkai across from her still unconscious. She tried to burn away her bonds but couldn't summon her mana.

"Kai wake up!" She shouted fighting against her bonds, they grew tighter the more she struggled pressing against her skin through blouse. "Kaffas " she said. She heard the door to the study open and saw Galatea. "You bi*ch what did you do to us"

Galatea walked to monkai grabbing his curled hair and looked at his unconscious face. "Pity.. still asleep " she said releasing him. "Have you had time time to consider my proposal I need new members"

"We said no! Your nothing but a slaver who profits off of others you tear children from their mothers... I can't abide your kind." Zera said trying to free herself. "Why won't my magic work " she thought.

"Look I know your barren and all but easy on the mother card... it's cliché " Galatea said looking a zera's shocked gaze "oh how I know? I know everything you'd be amazed by how much people will sell secrets."

Zera felt a open book... this woman knew her most guarded secret only coldi and monkai knew... she then realized her missing Ward. "Where's coldi so help me if harmed a hair on her head "

"My my such concern... she's safe... for how long is up to you...". Galatea said taking a seat on monkai's lap stroking his face. "Such a beautiful pet... we are similar you and I"

"Get your hand off him... " zera said. She saw how Galatea touched him as if inspecting a horse for breeding

"Why.. does it make moist when your man is with another woman. I understand you liked to watch.. to be denied " Galatea said rubbing her body against monkai's

"Just who the **** are you..." zera said trying not to see Galatea molest monkai. "Where's Scorn when you need her" she thought

Galatea unbuckled monkai's belt slowly dragging herself against him. "I am Galatea, a humble business woman who liberates those who can't liberate themselves... "

"Abolishist... " zera said

"Yes a real one not like you. Sure you spend your coin to free them but do give a job, teach them to read, write, or even a false offer of aide... your kind I just can't stand you pay lip service to your ideals but push comes... you renege. " Galatea said fire in her words she was growing tired of waiting for a answer.

"So what this is about ideals and so superiority complex. Pathetic and what did you do to him."

Galatea rose from monkai and danced in front of zera removing her leather tunic as she did. "What this is about for a later date when you join me... and as to your man... a toxin made from lyrium, deathroot, and rashvine, blood lotus, embrium,and witherstalk . The marvels of alchemy yes... it puts mundanes in a sleep when inhaled but i found if you ingest it, it alters mundanes granting them the ability that make mages powers temporarily void and if need be sedate them..."

Zera thought of what monkai said about templars on the south's ability to shut out a mage's connection to the fade.. "when I free myself... "

Galatea showed off her robust physique, her abdomen chiseled and her breast firm to touch. She grabbed monkai's member toying with the tip letting her hand become sticky... "haha I know that's why I do it.... think about it I can get you dozens of children all you need to do is join me... a war is coming " she said as her hand was covered in monkai seed.

Zera listened to her she was disgusted by how she though she could be bought like some politician.. but she was indecisive for all her bluster Galatea had spoke truth...a painful truth.. " I don't..."

"Just say yes..." Galatea said sticking her seeded hand into zera's mouth feeling her tongue clean her fingers. "Good girl" she said removing her hand leaving a trail of spit. Galatea took a vial from her belt she poured it into her her mouth and kissed zera forcing the liquid down her throat.

Zera coughed as the bitter drink coated her throat "what did you just give me! Zera shouted.

"Just something to seal our deal...the fun is about to begin.." Galatea said moving to monkai and removing his coat showing his gaunt frame. Zera began to feel hot like her body was on fire... and her womanhood ached

[Serelir]

Intrigued! Galatea's speech was awesome.

[raging_monkey]

Hehe glad you enjoy

[Uccio]

Galatea might be in a world of hurt if Caius gets a snif of her actions. Dangerous grounds. I just need to wake him up first.

[Serelir]

A scene between Galatea and Caius would be epic! If I ever get this abolitionist raid written, it would be an opportunity for Caius to get involved, because Elowyn is keeping it a secret from him - those two could have words. I'm not sure what direction to take it in though - I first wrote a scene in which the abolitionists were betrayed. Seems like it could bring the threads together if Galatea and Monkai are up to something, Elowyn and Aminia and Vel go on the raid, and Caius has to deal with the fallout.

[Uccio]

It would be interesting to say the least. I would love for you to do it, you know both of the character. Plus I love to read your stories.

[raging_monkey]

Yeah agreed

Act 106 :ideals

Spoiler

Monkai floated in a sea of darkness his body felt heavy despite his weightlessness. He remembered Galatea talking and as she did his head began to get foggy then nothing.

"Scorn... can you hear me" he said labouring for breath.

it seem we have a Templar in our midst... we are shut out of the fade... odd way of doing things... Scorn said floating to him her body peeled apart in the darkness. She grew fearful of what would happen if they didn't leave the darkness. A light eminated from them as they touched.

Xxx
The light blinded him as monkai's eyes began to focus he was bound to his chair and couldn't feel his mana "so I'm not dead... there's a start" he said staring at the floor. He saw zera withering her chair across from him, her face was covered in sweat and her face flustered

"Zera what's going on" he said trying to unbind himself. He saw his belt unbuckled and his member out "Galatea... " he whispered

He heard the door open behind him "you called my fury?" Galatea said closing the door and sitting on the desk.

"What have you done!"

"Maker that question again I swear it's like pup that won't stop barking... I'd rather talk about us"

Monkai saw zera convulse in her chair his anger mixed with corcern "blast it woman answer me!" Galatea walked to zera , she held her face smiling at her and showing her to monkai. "We are going to play a game.. I ask a few questions and she lives... if not.

Monkai bit his lip til blood flowed and nodded in agreement... "ask your questions but first what did you do to her.

Galatea laughed at his concern "well I gave her a lovely dance and a poison that enhances one's erogenous zones making their body extremely aroused...but in large does... quite lethal.." she said sliding onto his lap feeling his member against the crouch of her pants.

"Your sick" monkai said trying not to stare at her breasts. He realized she had removed her tunic "this must have been what her dance was.." he thought

"First question.. what are your ideals" Galatea said kissing his neck and feeling his chest she considered taking him while he slept but she prefered live prey.

"I... protect the weak from those like you...I protect my family" he said shuddering trying to focus. His head felt fuzzy he wondered if she was a templar from the south or was it just some tevinter magic at work.

"Good start.. but do you care for those you save.. many say that but never mean it" she said grinding her crouch against him. Her pants darkened.

"No.. I don't I just give them a choice in life "

"Pity.. are you a slave... to your spirit.. "

Monkai looked at Galatea wonder how she knew of Scorn he never openly spoke of her in public.. he saw zera tip over from her arousal trying to move to them. "Release.. him.. " she said trying to breath the poison working it's way through her.

"Zera!" He cried as she screamed.

"Ahh she nectared on herself... cute... the question stands my fury..." Galatea said tearing her crouch area of her pants wiping the ooze from his member with her drooling lotus teasing the tip prodding her lotus "hurry... old girl's running out of time and nectar is a pain to remove from the floor. "

Monkai screamed in anger at her words "AM I NOT A SLAVE! TO ANYONE! AND SWEAR I'LL KILL YOU!"

Galatea plunged herself on to him spraying her nectar over him "YES YES THATS WHAT I NEED! THAT FURY, THAT ANGER SO MUCH PRIDE , THAT PROMISE TO KILL!" Galatea shouted riding him letting his member fill her. She grabbed her conquest's face digging her nails into his skin. Monkai saw the madness in her eyes as her fought off his arousal it was as if looking at the old Gods themselves"GET OFF!" He shouted

"Look at your man zera! Look what he does for you!" Galatea said turning around to show zera her lotus being filled with her man. Zera couldn't look away her lotus wouldn't stop drooling and she could feel her womb open and close spitting nectar to her feet. "Please stop... I can't take it anymore" she said finally able to breath savoring each breath.

Monkai grunted as he was about to release his seed. Galatea removed herself from him as his seed flung in the air landing in front of zera "last question... will you join my organization and help me rid this place of depravity and to give those who can't choose their path the chance to choose. "

Monkai spat in her face " **** you " he said wanting to do everything he could kill her.

"Tsk tsk she has 2 minutes before her heart stops... your call" Galatea chided kissing his member, sucking the remains..

Monkai couldn't do anything he hated being helpless it was becoming embarrassing he was a mage... but couldn't protect himself nor his family he wondered was he worth zera's pain.. he put her through so much for so little...

"Old gods damnation! Alright! Alright!" He shouted as he felt his seed release into Galatea 's mouth. Galatea rose up swallowing his seed and wiped her mouth.. "On your word as a man, a mage, and of house Ragin " she said putting her tunic back on.

"Yeah yeah just help her!"

Galatea walked to the door opening it "oh she will be fine once I leave... she'll most likely kill you.. it's every mans dream to die from sex right... consider it a advance in payment if you both live after tonight.. " Galatea said laughing ,closing the door behind her..

XXx

Galatea walked back to her office stretching herself "mmm I need make a regular friend... maybe should wait to break him.. for now... Xaras must be dealt with" she said a sadistic smile creeping upon her face

[Serelir]

107: poison.

Spoiler

zera felt her magic return rushing like a dam bursting filling her with water. She gasped breathing in her power, she heard monkai's muffled voice calling to her as her mind came to, the loss of her power and the poison in her veins dampened her senses.

"I... love... you... Mathias.. " she said burning away her binds, rising to her feet. She gazed at her man staring at his soft member.

"Z not now... you need to just relax and rest... untie me and we will sort this out. Coldi is still missing... think of her.." monkai pleaded trying to burn away his bonds. bit*h born wh*re we can't move echoed. Her voice as furious as her partner's rage at Galatea, she was cut off from her power and couldn't in monkai's regeneration. Monkai saw the glyphs on a bracer on his arm.. "Templar tricks.." he said realizing what was on his wrist.

Zera undid her blouse and corset letting monkai take in her body. She knelt down to his member rubbing it against her cheeks. It smelled of sweet fragrance to her courtesy of galatea of defiling her man. "I hurt Mathis heal your wife... I hurt really bad." She said rubbing his member feeling the veins on it. "She's using my real name.. this bad..." monkai thought as he tried to take away his member.

Zera kissed the tip of his member tasting the mixed flavour of her man and Galatea. She took him into her mouth at first savoring him as if fighting her urges but began to devour her man like a glutton denied a sliver of food.

Monkai moaned as he felt her throat feeling muscles massage him. "Zera stop! " he said fighting off his arousal. She ignored his words merely making sounds as she marked her man. Zera's lotus leaked nectar running down her legs on to the floor, her legs were drenched. "Is it good love? I need your love" she said her eyes red from lack of air and stroking his member.

She undid her skirt showing monkai her lotus "please love I'm in so much pain.. help me "zera pleaded, monkai saw her lotus it was burning red from her normal pink and dripped with nectar.. "kiss it..." zera said as she pressed his mouth to her. Monkai choked at how much she leaked, feeling he was drowning in her. zera made him feast on her lotus screaming in ectasy "more more more" she cried spraying nectar as his teeth brushed against her stem. She breathed heavily "no I'm a lady of house Ragin and vallenious this isn't me it can't be!" She thought as she saw monkai wiping his face on his coat. Shame and desire filled she knew what she was doing was wrong... but her lotus ached.

"Zera coldi is missing hold out for a few more hours.. " monkai said finally loosing his bindings. poor girl's gone mad... perhaps you should take that elixir... Scorn teased enjoying how zera had become primal

"I need you... " zera cried pushing him down and sliding him into her, she convulsed as he entered her she rode him using her magic to hold him in place. Her womb devoured his seed releasing into her, they screamed in ecstasy filling her lotus to the brim

Monkai heard the door open as he regained his senses "well this looks fun my kind of- " coldi said before being struck by lightning coldi flew through the wall "It was just a joke z" she said before falling over, holding her chest

Monkai screamed in horror calling her name as zeta rode him trying to sate her pain. Monkai felt a rush of power as he released his seed into zera, his mana had returned. "I'm sorry " he whispered as he rubbed zera's face. She fell into his arms.. her frenzied face now calm... monkai covered her up with his coat...

"Coldi!" He said rushing to her. She was bleeding heavily "damn it she didn't carturize it " he said. He placed his hands on her chest on "let's hope I can do this..." seams of light emitinated from them as mana closed coldi's wound

Act 108: man of his word

Spoiler

the house was unusually quiet the next day.. what would've been another boisterous day was instead a day of shame. "So can I ask... "WHY I HAVE A ****** HOLE IN MY CHEST " coldi shouted. "I come home to get a book make a joke and I get a hole where I don't need it! My tattoo is ruined!"

"Shh zera's sleeping " monkai said changing coldi 's bandage. The hold in her chest had scabbed over indicating healing.

"OH **** HER! She did it. Answers now pi**pot "

"Its a long story... I'll tell it later just stay away from Galatea the slave market."

"Know the answer jackass " coldi said hitting him. Monkai let her hit him seeing it as a form of punishment had used his magic on his wife no matter what he did in tevinter he vowed to never stoop that low he had one rule never "harm a woman" and he had broken it. "Magic exists to serve man never rule over him" he thought "Just take the week off.. the ship is docked go fish for dinner " his words filled with melancholy.

"Lets hope I'm not struck by lightining" coldi said grabbing her coat and slamming the door til it fell off and left.
Xxx

Zera hid under her covers letting her lotus rest it was sore and bruised. She couldn't get the image of Galatea and Monkai out of her mind, how she pawed over him and taunted her, and essentially enslaved him. Her mind flashed to how she took her man against his will and nearly killed coldi.. " we are similar you and I" Galatea 's word flowed through her mind, she rose from her bed looking at the portrait of her and monkai on they wedding day. She took the letter opener and dragged it through the painting making a X , she then threw the trinkets and items on the dresser to the ground shattering vials of perfume. She continued destroying her room until finally seeing herself in the mirror as she was to destroy it. Her eyes were red and her hair frazzled "I'm nothing like her.. I'm not" she said dropping to her knees glass digging through her gown.

"Z..." monkai said opening the door hearing the ruckus from downstairs. Zera looked at him his face was pitiful "how could always be smiling with especially after the night before.." she thought as he tiptoed around the glass.

"Don't look at me..." she said covering her face with her hair. She couldn't look at him after what she did.

"Hey now it was the poison I'm more mad by how I didn't prevent it I'm the one shouldn't be looked up" monkai said kneeling to and hugging "sides you allow Scorn to be with us... I can't fault you.. nor would I.

Zera hated when he kept his emotions bottled up as if nothing mattered to him. "Why aren't you angry... you've been enslaved and forced to work with that woman.. she took you"

"Well I'm a man of my word the one thing adris taught me and I don't intend to be a slave to her forever... I will get our life back..." he said petting her hair.

Zera cried at the thought of their future, she pondered how could she be a mother with whs she did to her man and ward, her own mother wasn't that cruel before she passed... she considered that it was the makers will she was barren. "Don't let me be poisoned again.. or I will kill you." She teased wiping her eye

Monkai didn't have it in him to tell her that the vial she was given was just witherstalk sap mixed with black lotus and rum, a extremely potent tonic that did enhance those areas but harmless even large doses that at worked as a abortive at worst . "She doesn't need to know"he thought "I promise... you know I keep them."

XXx

Monkai arrived at Galatea 's office he felt dirty just being outside he entered the office seeing Galatea on her desk while a qunari woman fed off her lotus. "Come on then lick faster I've had dwarves clean their plates better" she said bored out of her mind, she had grown bored with her pet. Monkai cleared his throat loudly to break up her little game, Galatea pulled the qunari woman from her lotus, her face smeared in nectar. "Leave us... fury and I have business... dont clean your face understood." She said with the qunari leaving nodding in agreement.

"So you work where you **** " monkai said still angery from last night. He knew she thrived of his anger but he didn't care in the slightest.

"Ahh cranky because you missed me..." Galatea said pulling the petals of her lotus a part showing him her inner temple."I'm wet... and haven't had breakfast yet... come feed me.."

Monkai stepped back in revulsion "you left a note... what's the job so I can leave.."

Galatea pouted at how he declined her offer "aww we had such fun last night... party killer" she said turning and bending over showing him her lotus that dripped slightly while grabbing a ledger " since we recently took massive casualties from a bad job we are in need of healers and information brokers give this to the fiend" she said giving him the ledger, calling zera a fiend as a warped joked.

"Shut your mouth when you speak of her" monkai said defending his absent wife.

"Oh hush she is a fiend you saw last night haha... and this is for you... this actually important.. " Galatea said dropping her flirtatious tone "think of me what you will but this one is a monster.. he the blight itself on anyone breathing... I ask you not as your boss or friend... but as a equal I need a investigator and if need be a partner " giving him another ledger

Monkai took the ledger looking upon it. It felt detailed and old. " after what you did what to stop me from screwing you over"

"Well I'm pantless now so do it... but honestly nothing beside your ideals ones I share and your given word ... but after reading that report there... I hope you see why I require a new network

Monkai thought of her words.. she asked him of his ideals.. the situation was odd but it was a real question. "Hmph maybe I'll break it you never know"

"Good to know. Your alias is Fury and zera is fiend. Dismissed " Galatea said her voice as serious as a executioners axe.

Monkai left with the ledgers in toe wondering what has he gotten to and who was this mystery man that caused a dominant and forceful woman like her to be civil and serious

Act 109 : Subjective ideals

Spoiler

"Subjects nine and ten have expired the solution A causes organs to rupture. Recommend refinement " the mage said his voice heavy with disappointment. He had nearly gone through all of his slaves each one a failure... all but one.

"Subject thirteen... my Muse and still alive..." he said stroking the girl know as subject thirteen. She had lightly tanned skin indicating her eastern tevinter heritage, her copper hair was knotted and stuck to her skin from a sweat and grease.

"I swear when I get free I'll kill you and every slaver like you" thirteen said fighting against her chains.

"Hush my sweet you are the oldest... please be respectful to your papa "the man said pointing to the cages of children no more than the age of 6. Thirteen saw her fellow slaves, they were malnourished and ill. She knew she had to survive to protect them from her master's sick experiments the more she survived his poisons and serums the less of her fellows suffered.

"Just get this over with xaras " she said closing her eyes praying to the maker to save her.

"Its papa " xaras said walking to his table picking up a vial. "This is solution A let's see if you can adapt "

Xxx

Thirteen writhed in pain as the serum ran through her veins she could feel her organs split open and close. "For them I do this for them" she thought all the pain she was in mitigated by her need to protect those weaker than her.

"Subject thirteen has survived solution A, but suffers mild internal bleeding and eyes. Proceed with mixture of final solution." Xaras said examing thirteen's eyes and abdomen and beginning to mix his solution.

A small elven child cried out "leave her alone! She can't do it anymore I'll do it!." Xaras ignored the child continuing to mix his serum.

"Shut up just stay quiet this for you!" Thirteen said silencing the child. She knew xaras liked to experiment on elves "adaptable and resilient " he said... but it was a excuse to give them the worse of it.... and it was always worse.

Xaras grounded deathroot, and rashvine, blood lotus, embrium,and witherstalk ,pouring refined lyrium into the bowl. It smelled of rotted fruit and honey, he channeled electricity in to the brew then boiled the solution with fire. Vapour danced from it filling the room the inhabitants inhaled it they became groggy and nausious but xaras felt weak and stumbled slightly. "Interesting... are you ready thirteen last one of the day..." he said holding her nose and forcing the solution down her throat.

It tasted horrid thirteen could feel it burning her throat coughing once it was all gone. She felt her heart slowly stop "no keep beating damn it we have kids to look out for... I won't die down here... not ever " she thought struggling for air she felt her muscles expand tearing her soft skin.

"Subject thirteen is responding positively to solution C it would appear mundane augmentation is a-" he said before noticing thirteen had stop breathing. He channeled lightning into her to restart her heart, the children watched as their master electrocuted her in horror she was their guardian spirit protecting them from his madness but now she was dead..

"Subject thirteen has... expired recommend refinement of solution c.. perhaps elves hold the key.." xaras said woefully picking up thirteen and carrying her to the window. "Your sacrifice will not be in vein my child the others will be your legacy " xaras dropped thirteen watching her fall into a pile of refuse knowing she would just be passed off a suicide.

Thirteen looked at the moons seeing themfor the first time in her life as her life faded.

XXx

Galatea screamed as she awoke from her chair gasping for air. "The same dream again" she thought. She held her head trying to remember where she was. "I'm at work last minute plans and assignments" she said looking at the moons and a series of numbers scratched out with the exception of thirteen

"Don't worry I keep my promises even after twenty years ...I have friends who can help don't worry " she whispered closing the window and beginning her training regiment early

[Serelir]

Great backstory! Love it!

[raging_monkey]

Thank you it gets more darker

[Serelir]

I think it's good to show that there's some justification for people's view of Tevinter and the evils of slavery, while making it clear that there are Tevinter citizens fighting against those abuses. 

 

It's not as if there weren't twisted murderers and rapists in the rest of Thedas.

[raging_monkey]

Yup that's my idea a bit of black and white at first but later we delve into some really gray areas that I hope will allow us to talk about not only ideals but how impractical or flawed they can be when applied to the real world

[raging_monkey]

And as proof of your point *points to Quentin and leandra as exhibit A * we all know what he was going to do to her after

Act 110: decompress

Spoiler

Monkai laid outstretched on his bed trying to relax. Galatea had summoned him for a last minute job that had went south, with elywon being missing it was a matter of time til some way it bit him on his ass. He turned his head staring at the ledger Galatea gave him, wondering if it was so detailed why does she need him. "Its her issue let her deal with it " he thought reaching for the ledger.

"So I think I should be a actor I was very convincing" zera said drying her hair, she had just gotten out of the bath stepping behind the dressing wall.

"Yeah pulled no punches... have anything on your chest you need to air out?" Monkai asked looking at her silloette move. He always found her dressing seductive and more than once stared at her while she did even before they were together "still has a lovely arse... " he whispered

"What?" She said trying to listen.

"Uh how's coldi "

"Oh still mad about her tattoo I told her you'd fix it "

Zera stepped from the dress curtain wearing scant gown slowly fixing it to show more of her voluptuous figure "like what you see..." she said crawling onto him kissing him and moving her way to his crough sucking his member through his pants. Monkai exhaled heavily wondering if that elixir was permanent ,he felt himself building up ready to shower her with his seed. "Think that's enough... you said some really mean things today" zera said stopping her self from pleasing her man "punishment for calling me mediocre " she shouted and kicking him out of the bed telling he can sleep in the study

XXx

Monkai prepared his sleeping arrangements, complaining how she couldn't stay in character. "I should be a actor" he said mimicking zera's voice flawlessly "yeah right make the actors sleep in the study too" he added sarcastically.

haha trouble in paradise beloved come to me I'll finish what she started...I can feel your desire Scorn cooed.

"Sure after I read that this couldn't today remember " monkai said opening the ledger.

Xxx
The flame the candle was at it's base wax melted onto the table where monkai read... his face was filled with disgust and horror. Galatea had given him the ledger as way to convince him to join them wholeheartedly, use his coin to finance their cause, be a leader in her organization to rid tevinter of it's degenerates...and give the people a choice at freedom. But what he read of Xaras Talos mortified him made him wonder who was the real monster, him a admitted abomination behind closed doors... and man itself.

"He experimented on children... he was buying kids from the brothel... I stopped it..." he said feeling nauseous. hmm xaras talos isn't he well that is your biggest fan and won't stop writing those letters thanking you for the research advice Scorn whispered.

Monkai fought his nausea coming to gripes with how he had helped him months ago at a lecture... "so xaras talos isn't a healer... but some sick deviant who delights in experimenting on mundies... children even who never had a chance." He said punching through his desk

it would appear so... beloved I care nothing for mortals aside from you and zera but even I believe that's wrong Scorn said it was uncharacteristically human response monkai noticed... maybe even compassionate. His mind drifted to old memories of her old self one that cared for him throughout his childhood and adolescence.

"Agreed... I need sleep though... to plan how to let Galatea know when to strike. She resourceful but if what she has complied is accurate.. she just started a war.. " monkai said holding his head black blood flowed through his eyes dripping to the desk rippling at each drop

Galatea sat in her office smiling at how her office was raid by the magister looking for apprentice. "MMm those eyes... they come close to fury but he had so much fury"Galatea said laughing. She had freigned compliance just to watch him, his eyes spoke of love and adoration for her.

"My my such a complicated family the Ragin and vallenious almost poetic in their dynamics. " she said stifling her laughter. "It would appear this game just got interesting."

Monkai opened her door swinging it into the wall "we need to talk" he said his angered voice honey to her ears

The woman wheezed laboring for each breath,holding her chest as she walked the slave market bumping into bystanders trying to not catch what ever she had. "Subject has become lethargic and motor controls are steadily declining as she progresses death in three hours, highly contagious " the old man said scribbling in his notebook while a hooded woman stood by him They watched her stumble into a couple heading to a large building ,she moved to a well after they had helped her up taking a sip of water from.. finally collapsing

"Subject has expired... prematurely. Seven begin the next experiment. " the man said to the hooded woman. She dropped a heavy orb from her robe watching it roll to a small child. Seven snapped her fingers watching glow in a flash of light

Act 112: pestilence

Spoiler

Galatea faded in and out of her and monkai's discussion she enjoyed planning her vendetta but he went over every minute detail to excess. "Xaras currently runs a clinic on the south side of the city it gives him access to various patients and judging by your report it's not wholly medicinal. " monkai said his voice becoming garbled as he went on. "Maker for such a great bed mate he talk and talks" she thought picking up her knife and digging the dirt from them. They heard a loud explosion and Galatea was blinded by a flash of light. shattering the windows

Smoke filled the office Galatea 's vision blurred as she came to she saw monkai reaching to grab her. "Awe little fury does care" she said coughing from the smoke

"Oh shut it woman I just don't leave people for dead" he said blushing, he had grown accustomed to his nickname oddly and found it ironic.

One of the abolishints came through the coughing and looking like he had been working the lyrium mines since birth " mistress we.. have.." he said before he started to twist and contort.. he screamed a primal roar and rushed toward them. Monkai swatted the man knocking him to the ground. He looked at his assailant seeing his eyes bleed profusely "what in the" he said before the man forced him into the wall, monkai held him back as the man tried to bite him."little help here!"

Galatea threw her former subordinate to the ground driving her dagger into his skull. "Damn it jures what got into you" she asked wiping her blade on jures's shirt

"It looked lyrium madness " monkai said poking the corpse with his staff. "Ugh "

"Isn't that just a dwarven wives tale?" Galatea asked

"Yes and no lyrium does cause madness and dementia but it takes years to build up and needs a open wound to make contact which should kill most at that stage even dwarves. " monkai said rising up from his inspection...

They heard screams from out the window. They saw slaves revolting and guards failing to restore order while others attacked each other as if a mad frenzy. "Tell me this one of your anarchistic plans" monkai said looking out the window in horror. He had seen battle like this before in dairsumund when his circle was annuled.. but this was madness.

"No... since your father in law's little spat we've been laying low well as much as we want" Galatea said scanning the market. She saw a hooded figure among the cause look dead at pulling her finger indicating her to follow as she left blending into the crowd, "Seven? " she said incredulously . She jumped from the window deftly tossing a chain hook to the window and rolled breaking her fall

"Seven come back!" Galatea shouted shoving back guards and crazed slaves

Monkai saw her jump "no way **** that I'm taking the stairs " he said without hesitation he would fight slavers crazed grandparents even fight caius to the death. But he'd be damned to the void if he jumped from a window

Monkai exited Galatea's building he saw how crazed slaves tore each other apart and how others retched themselves to death vomiting bile blacker that his own blood. this isn't natural... it's a disease but it's as if magic was it vector and catalyst. Scorn said. She could sense the air grow ill

"Agreed maybe if we find- " monkai said before feeling a tightness in his chest. Black blood spewed from his mouth, he turned to see who struck him. It was a child her eyes bleeding the same as jures and shrieking the same roar he didn't "damn kids.." he said remorseful
