Lily: “I still don''t get it?”


    Pandora: “Why would Balaur say, that this outcome, is the lesser of two evils?”


    Eve: “Maybe, because their time together was short, and they knew it, so they spent it, as best as they could. So that there would be no regrets left, between them.”


    Pandora: “But then, why did this tragedy happen? Couldn''t he have foreseen it?”


    Lily: “He said it himself. Sometimes there are unknown factors, even beyond his control.”


    Eve: “So what do we do now? Avenge them?”


    Pandora,Lily: “Yes!”


    I need you 3, to go with him, help him, and make sure, he doesn''t hurt innocent people.” He took a few steps in the direction of the city, turned around, and said to the three:


    Attar: “Are you coming?”


    Let''s GO!”. Attar faced forward, drew out his electrical sword, and without saying anything, set out towards the city.

    Attar: “Halt! Ladies, what can you tell me about it?”


    Pandora: “The bodies are still warm. Dead, for no more, than an hour.”


    Eve: “Bruises on the wrists and ankles, they were bound, for a few hours, before death.”


    Lilith: “Shallow cuts on all limbs, broken fingers and pulled out nails. Signs of torture.”


    Attar: “All and all, cause of death is severe blood loss, caused by those wounds.”


    Pandora: “Judging by the condition of the bodies, and how they were tossed here, this was revenge, and a message to someone.”


    Attar: “Haah! Put the weapons away, ladies. We need more information first.”


    Lilith: “Finally, your breathing is back to normal, and your eyes are white again.”


    Attar: “What do you mean?”


    Eve: “Your sclera were red this morning.”


    Pandora: “Are you not angry anymore?”


    Pandora: “OK! OK! Stupid question. Anyway, we better find a place to stay. Looks like, we will be here for a while. Do we have people in this remote city?”


    Attar: “Actually, last I heard, Castor & Pollux''s chain of fabric manufacturing business, has a branch here as well.”


    Lily: “That''s perfect. And tonight, me and Eve, will head to the local tavern, for more information, on the local Thug gangs.”


    Attar: “What was that, that you showed him?”


    Pandora: “As merchants, Castor & Pollux, have many friends. It is simply more convenient for everyone, to stay here, than anywhere else in this city. I merely asked for 2 rooms.”


    Attar: “Excuse me, sir! Where is the local tavern?”


    Eve: “Ahem! Attar. You were speaking Egyptian, just now. Remember? Locals can''t understand you, unless you speak their tongue.”


    Attar: “Haa! I miss the old days.”


    Lily: “So do we. Now, unless it''s our own people, we have to learn every dialect, of every language, in every century. It''s annoying. And tedious.”


    Eve: “I agree!”


    Attar: “So do I!”
