Re: The Game
In reply to James (msg # 38):
Once outside the brig, Conrad turns to James.
"I'm not a chemist, so I'm not sure whether I should be angry or not. I don't understand what you are trying to do, but if it's poison, I have to stop you. That's not our way."
He sighs.
"I understand your anger, believe me. But there's no way I'm going to risk allowing either prisoner to go free based on missteps taken during their imprisonment. If you want to execute the goblin, fine -- Captain practically ordered as much, anyway."
He puffs himself up a little bit.
"But don't execute a cooperating prisoner right in front of another prisoner who has been and who, gods willing, will continue to be cooperative in his own right. Sends a bad message. And, again, that's not our way."
Conrad takes a moment to compose himself, and his tone softens.
"Explain what you're trying to do with the wine and the candle. I think we both want to force Ragnar back in front of the mirror, but I'm concerned it won't look authentic if you're making some sort of hypnotic serum."
