Re: 0G - Prelude - The Mermaid's Secret
Angati walked over to Amarilde, "So... dear, it seems like everything can be fixed, and your wedding can happen without further incident, once your groom understands what has been the origin of this confusion"... she paused a bit before continuing "Now, it remains to be seen what to do with Vrinn... and... I beleive you hold the key to his future, and to a certain extent to yours... you see, I think you have three options open to you, two of which might be beneficial to you, and one that really will do nothing for your own benefit but which might be perfectly understandable, given how shaken you must be. Still, opportunities like these don't happen often... listen:"
"- You can either ask for justice to take Vrinn, which gains you nothing and will ultimately make him as dead as the other one there... or, in case he escapes might give him a reason to hate you and want to exact revenge on your family one way or another".
- Or you can maybe offer him to enter your household. This is risky, but potentially beneficial to you, and to him. He would be indebted to you, but you can probably work out a way to profit this in ways that few people ever get the chance... It is a risky thing and I also see that it requires a certain kind of stomach to have him in your household after all that has happened.
- There is a third option, which would be giving me a bit of time, to try to find someone who might want to give some money to you so that you don't press the charges towards him... in order for Vrinn to be indebted for a time to him." Angati used the masculine as if she had in mind a man for this, when she really was thinking about her sister, or even herself, to play the role of herself as she should be and not as she was now "This, is probably the safest path for you, it assures you that he has no specific reason to hate you, while keeping him appart, and you make something out of all this mess...".
"So, there you go... What do you think ?, please try to be pragmatical, after all, you are a noble, its not just about your pride, but also about your house's gain".
OOC: Ok, so ideally, if she takes the safer option with gain, I would talk to my sister, its a risky business, but if Vrinn learns enough about myself, he could pose as me with the younger figure, and my family could profit from that. I guess that they might be willing to pay to hide the fact of my curse, Vrinn could play a noble as he wanted in the beginning, and at the same time, he could probably have fun while promoting family interests...
Other than that, I forgot to ask Amerilde, and Vrinn, I do not know if its too late, but I would have asked them about the involvement of Amarilde's previous lover, and the robbery of her dress, if they could think of any reason that might have happened.
