The drunk guy? I guess I shouldn't have tuned that out, then. [Can anyone blame him though, when a guy who sounds completely hammered starts broadcasting on all channels?]
I know from experience, if the Beastmaster's troops get you immobilized for long enough, you're joining them. There's no resisting it. [That's finally the thought that puts him off the chocolate for now.] Obviously we don't want anybody getting brainwashed by that freak, but we need to protect him specifically--and be ready to protect us if he loses control. That means securing a defensible position and fireproofing everything we can. [Because Wration is very, very good at fire.]
I was hoping some magic or potion stuff could help out with either of those problems.
[The worst case scenario in that case fills her with dread. She doesn't want to lose anyone to the Beastmaster - once was enough, and she remembers how much it took out of Lily...
She doesn't know what the Merchant is playing at, setting them up in the Beastmaster's territory to begin with. She want to know, however. Very much.
She thinks of what Slick is asking, and frowns.] I know more spells that start fires than those that put them out, but there's ways to summon water out of thin air.
I wish I could ward people against his mind control, specifically, but I don't think it's Occlumency. Ah - [softly:] shit.
I have a potent potion to knock one single person out. And binding spells, stunning spells - magic you'd use in battle, worst case scenario, but for this...?
[She pauses, and pins Slick with a Look.] I don't have the stomach to plan how I'd kill my friends if they turned into the Beastmaster's pets. I don't operate like that.
[It's a shame, it hits her, that they can't just run and hide. A shame she doesn't have the tent anymore, or any of her books from home. Wait.]
What about if he's not in the village when and if Beastmaster comes?
