It’s not dying I’m afraid of
How strange, to have a quest from a god. For that matter, what a strange collection of things it wants. Were Ludo’s rags from banshee’s before? Was that how it got them in the first place? She just assumed it magiked its clothing into existence, but perhaps it was a collection of many, many quests. ”Thanks for coming,” she says to Loren as they travel together, making the journey from Halo to the Grounds while they still could. Either she went now, or she had to wait a whole season to complete Ludo’s request, and taking extra long on the thing seemed like the wrong option, if she could help it.
Of course, that meant they needed to be successful today. ”So basically Ludo told me to slay a banshee with my scythe and bring it some of its rags,” she says, looking around the forest as if one might appear. They have only just reached the Woodland, but she pulls the scythe from her back in preparation as they continue to walk. ”But I admit, I have no idea how to find one.” Or how hard it would be to kill the thing with a weapon. That meant getting close, and also making sure they didn’t accidentally kill it in some other way. Possibly she could have done this hunt alone, but she appreciates the company, particularly given that this is unfamiliar territory. Besides, any smart hunter knows it is better to hunt in a group.
