Astrid Vortigern: Leans in close, eyes sparkling Seeee them, darlin'? We could owwwwwn this room! Just say the word!!!
So, who do you think is the real threat here, Astrid?
Pauses, a calculating look in her eyes Well, SimplePrestige, it's hard to say for certain. But I've got my suspicions. That man earlier, for example. He seemed to be hiding something, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. And then there's that group of men in the corner, laughing and drinking. Their laughter seemed a bit too loud, a bit too forced. It's almost as if they're trying to mask something.
Alright, Astrid. We'll keep an eye on them.
As the night progresses, Astrid and SimplePrestige continue to gather information and keep a close eye on the suspicious character and the group of men. They begin to piece together a larger conspiracy involving corruption within the party.
later that night i wake up in my bed wow that was eventful i get dressed and head outside
Looks around, noticing SimplePrestige approaching Ah, SimplePrestige! Glad to see you're awake. Did you sleep well?
oh I slept fine. So what's the plan now, Astrid?
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Ah, SimplePrestige, always eager for action. Well, darlin', we've got quite a task ahead of us.
smiles I'm ready for whatever it is.
Grins mischievously Well, then let's not waste any time, SimplePrestige. We need to infiltrate the heart of the party's corruption.
Laughs, her eyes sparkling with excitement Well, SimplePrestige, we have a few tricks up our sleeves. First, we need to gather some reliable allies. People who aren't afraid to challenge the status quo. We'll start by contacting some of my old friends from the underground circles. They might have some insight into who's behind all this corruption.
Okay. Sounds like a plan. Who are we meeting?
Leans in closer, speaking in hushed tones Well, SimplePrestige, we're going to meet with an old acquaintance of mine named Marcus. He's a master of manipulation and knows the ins and outs of the underground world. He might be able to point us in the right direction. And trust me, Marcus is someone you don't want to underestimate. We'll need to be sharp if we want to survive this. Smirks Are you up for it, SimplePrestige?
Grabs SimplePrestige's arm and pulls him towards the exit Excellent! We're not wasting any time. Let's go pay Marcus a visit.
we head off to meet Marcus
As they walk, Astrid speaks in hushed tones So, SimplePrestige, before we meet Marcus, there's something you need to know.
Grins mischievously Well, SimplePrestige, Marcus has a reputation for being quite... unpredictable.
