DOLCETTUS:
By Stendarr, of all the mean, conniving, typically Argonian
--
INZOLIAH: And why do you need me alive?
SCHIAVAS: I don't necessarily. Except that you're prettier
than the other two, for a smoothskin that is. And if something
comes after us, it might go for you first.
There is a noise in some bushes nearby.
SCHIAVAS: Go check that out.
INZOLIAH: It's probably a wolf. These woods are filled
with them. You check it out.
SCHIAVAS: You have a choice, Inzoliah. Go and you might
live. Stay here, and you definitely won't.
Inzoliah considers and then goes to the bushes.
SCHIAVAS (to Malvasian and Dolcettus): The king of Silvenar
will pay good money for the Mail, and we can divide it
more nicely between three than four.
INZOLIAH: You're so right.
Inzoliah suddenly levitates up to the top of the stage.
A semi-transparent Ghost appears from the bush and rushes
at the next person, who happens to be Schiavas. As the
barbarian screams and thrashes at it with his sword, it
levels blasts of whirling gas at him. He crumbles to the
ground. It turns next to Dolcettus, the healer, and as
the Ghost focuses its feasting chill on the hapless Dolcettus,
Malvasian casts a ball of flame at it that causes it to
vaporize into the misty air.
Inzoliah floats back down to the ground as Malvasian
examines the bodies of Dolcettus and Schiavas, who are
both white-faced from the draining power of the ghost.
MALVASIAN: You had some magicka reserved after all.
INZOLIAH: So did you. Are they dead?
Malvasian takes the potion of healing from Dolcettus's
pack.
MALVASIAN: Yes. Fortunately, the potion of healing wasn't
broken when he fell. Well, I guess this leaves just the
two of us to collect the reward.
INZOLIAH: We can't get out of this place without each
other. Like it or not.
The two battlemages pick up the chest and begin plodding
carefully through the undergrowth, pausing from time to
time at the sound of footsteps or other eerie noises.
MALVASIAN: Let me make sure I understand. You have a little
bit of magicka left, so you elected to use it to make
Schiavas the ghost's target, forcing me to use most of
my limited reserve to destroy the creature so I wouldn't
be more powerful than you. That's first-rate thinking.
INZOLIAH: Thank you. It's only logical. Do you have enough
power to cast any other spells?
