DELPHiA
Silence fell for a moment, the air seeming to still. Tishy, reacting to the emotions Delphia felt, visible through her decay, arched up behind her head. Slowly, the demigoddess lifted a hand, palm outstretched. Then in an instant, as she closed her fist, the sensation of his soul, still within his body being tugged away would wash over the guildmaster. "I do not get to decide how you live. But I can decide how you die." she hissed. Delphia approached, far too stable on her feet given the state of decay she found herself in. Again she tugged on his soul, his body jerking from the force.
Steely eyes flicked down as the dagger glinted beneath his cloak. With her free hand she grabbed it, not caring in the least as it cut her. Instead she used the leverage to pull him even closer, her lips held by his ear. "You are a greater fool, and far more stubborn than I had imagined." she said, voice a whispery hiss. "I do not care if your life changes. I do not care if you live or die, and my father will love me regardless of the state you are in when you die, like everything else in this world ultimately will. But she cared. And I will not give you her message until you change enough to understand the depth of its meaning."
