*A blade catches the light and its point swiftly touches the skin of the mermaid's neck. Two dark eyes stare out from beneath a wide brimmed hat*.

*Philomena freezes. She stares up into the man's face, pleading him with her beautiful eyes to ungag her . He hesitates and removes the gag but keeps the knife to her throat. *

I get it... I won't scream, you have cut me once already and I know you won't hesitate to kill me. Please I need a drink of water.

*Hood reaches into his dusty tunic and slides out a silver flask and unscrews the lid. He slides his sword into his belt, and pulls out a curved dagger. The masked man kneels before the woman. His dark eyes narrow as he studies the mermaid's face closely. The Hood leans forward and places the tip of the dagger against Philomena's side as he slowly pours the water into her mouth*.

Thank you.

*She gulps the water thirstily*

Are you going to speak to me? I think I deserve to know why I am here. Are you here to kill me? If you are please do my hair before you end me, I want to leave a beautiful corpse.

*Hood nods, stands up sharply and screws the lid back upon the flask, his eyes flicker with brief amusement but then narrow and harden again. He places the flask back into his tunic pocket and steps away from Philomena. He watches her carefully, before sliding his dagger back into his belt. He slides off a black leather gauntlet and cracks his knuckles one at a time, excluding one finger on which there is a silver and black ring with the initials A D*.

*Philomena tries to hide her fear and looks him directly in the eyes.*

There is a comb in my pocket. Please comb my hair before you kill me; I would rather not die with my hair in such a mess.

*Hood continues to stare at Philomena and he folds his arms*.

Your no use to us dead.

*His voice is deep and gravelly, muffled by the material concealing his mouth*.


I thought our paths would cross in time. And that time has come.

Who says I will be any use alive? I may not be inclined to help you human.

*The mermaid stares into his eyes.*

Have we met before? You seem familiar.

You'll help me, just by being here.

*Hood sits down upon a large rock and plays with his ring*.

I've been a face in the crowd, I've watched you through the smoke at the Blue Dragon, you're very beautiful, but we've not spoken until now.


*He stares at Philomena his dark eyes flicker*.

I live my lie in secret. This is about you, not me....

You work for the Chaos Engine? How can I help you by being here? I do not understand any of this. I am not important. I am just a barmaid from Holme's Tavern.

*She smiles at him and leans forward a little. *

I am glad you think I am beautiful. Are you handsome under all those layers? You look like you have a good body at least and gorgeous dark eyes like Vortigern's.
