Ravenloft - Castle Ravenloft #1
Any upset at Zertin's display vanishes, subsumed by the immediate danger. "Don't...don't touch that," Violet states, pointing at the fallen 'moss'. "I've seen it before, around here." Nervously, she glances up, raising her lamp. "If you have shields, cloaks, hold them over your head. Discard them if this slime touches them." Grimacing, she continues to watch above, as long as there is stonework overhead.
"It will sink into you. Rot you." Her lips writhe in disgust. "Kill you, slowly and painfully."
Not something they had in Chaville; had it been, Violet has no doubt the rich would have made a night's amusement of watching one of the poor scream and dance when infected by the foul ichor.
