Back in the Keep

Things I could say to Sarry...

Sarry, hey, bro, so you're gonna join me now or after I kill you twice? You could keep all your soul and not have a spark of mine. Hey, I wonder... would any Bhaalspawn's soul work? I see pink.

Sarry? Where did you go? Sarry... or should that be Sarevok backwards... Koveras... Sar? Bro? Seriously? Do I need to make an appointment through Tamoko or Cyth?

I sigh.

But you know... I could seduce Tamoko and tell her I'll save the Big Sar, approaching her first. Tammy, I know how hard it must be, being cast aside for that blonde ogre-loving bimbo... the shame, the anguish, the hurt, o Tammy-cakes, the despair must be crushing; what a cruel mistress Fate is, how fickle is the heart of a demigod...

Speaking of lonely hearts...

If I took Edwin to the Nether scroll and then introduced Edwina to Anomen without Ano ever knowing Eddiekins, could love blossom? Edwina, of course, would be outraged but learn that as the fool dotes on her, she need never lift a finger. Secretly flattered, over time this small flicker begins to grow...

Immy would love it. Who else could I arrange love for? Haer'Dalis and girdled Xan? We're all doomed... Korgan and Aerie? Nah, they're already a thing, even if they're in denial... Monty and Mazzy?

But let's start local: Garrick and Faldorn. From a tree came this lute he will use to sing a song to trees...

I shall be the Terror of the Sword Coast.

It occurs to me I have an opportunity here. I need to find a way to get Oomph into dear Cythipoos little troop: boom goes the ogre.

I also need to drown Noober in a puddle of his own drool.

It's the little things that make the journey worthwhile. After all, it's about the friends we broke along the way.

I wonder what would happen if I saved Eddard Silvershield?

I also need to introduce Korag to Xzar. I can't believe those two missed each other. This time, maybe I could convince Shar-Teel not to duel Kagain and get a spear through the gut, and avoid Kagain's love gaze with that basilisk. Probably not, but I think Teal-Teel and Keldorn deserve each other. Kelly and Teel sitting by a tree...

It would just be magic.

Oh, oh now there's a thought: Dreppin and Noober, Nessy and Ursa. Yesssss, I shall spread love and inevitable heartbreak. Tears shall be sown in my passage, so saith Reborn Alaundoooooo.

Enough planning, let's start the madness!
