Mention Alric

“Well, actually, there is something I have to confess,” you say a little shamed, “in the apartment of this woman, there was a birdcage.”

“Yes, we saw it when we rescued you,” Knight says, “did you saw what happened to the … bird?”

“Well, it seems like a little man was inside,” you say carefully “a man with dragonfly wings. The woman with the snake hair took some dust from him to weaken the effect of her poisons. He was in great pain so ... well I ...”

“You felt pity for him and smuggled him out of the apartment,” Lady Vanessa finishes your sentence, “we already know. This thing was a fairy.”

“Did you thought you could hide a magic creature from my eyes?” Knight says sharp and crosses her arms, “I just didn't said anything because fairies are quite harmless. But I'm glad you admit the truth.”

“That you show mercy is good, but next time hand the fairy over to us!” Vanessa says and smiles a little, “we don't hate them and they are no danger. But you couldn't knew about this. You just helped it because it was small and weak. It could have been dangerous, you know.”

“I know,” you say and look to the ground, “and I'm sorry.”

“Don't be,” Vanessa says and takes a step back to show you the door, “since you were honest to us, I don't think there is any reason to keep you here any longer. Go home and try to get some rest. Our medic team will give you something that allows you to forget what happens tonight. You can take it or not, that's up to you. Some people prefer the illusion of a save and sane world. It makes live more easy. While others risk to face darkness. If you are one of the latter, make sure to not get swallowed by it.”
