((OOC: Sooo?))

If she accepts the glass, a Trap Soul spell activates, pulling both her soul and body into a crystal, without actually killing her. Hildmor likely knew she would resist direct casting...

//There's no spell to the keyed version of this spell.

She takes the glass and driknks deeply. The soul gem shatters and she simply laughs

"Are you stupid or just daft? Didn't I just say those don't work. You know what.. I'm going to leave shortly. Its obvious that you are too pig headed and intend to do things the way you want to and your ego is way to big for even you to control

I will contact Rain and let him know he is wrong in his choice, this is something you are not capable of doing

"Unless you prove otherwise in this short few days"

"So you didn't lie. Too bad. It shall be chains then. I'm not letting go of you, not just yet. You do realise that I had to spend resources to get you here? That means, even if I can't change fate, I'm still going for the maximum gain. Sorry. And Rain will be sorry too if he tries to recover you..."

Hildmor smiles and calls in some mercenaries to escort her to a dungeon. He'd follow her all the way through Serpent's Gaze and his office, under which the special antimagic cell is located. Knowing how relatively few mages know how to properly use Scrying in Sigil and how Discern Location doesn't work in the Cage either, she'd likely be lost for anyone searching for her with any kind of magical means or bar her from any magical means of escape...Before closing the cell, Hildmor said:

"You are right, I always intend to do things the way I want. Letting you go would be foolish, killing even more so. Hildmor d'Kridis doesn't do foolish things. I have you and I am going to benefit from it if I so desire...Don't even try to play escape artist. If I catch you, the rest of your days will be more miserable than even you can imagine."

In afew days, Hildmor visits the Oracle's cell again. This time, with Kree.

"Hello again. Interestingly enough I had no chance to find the one I wantd to give you to. That means I'll have to keep you, despite all dangers. In return though, you'll have to prove your worth. Also, Kreeyzia will decide herself if she wants you back in Serpent's Gaze or here."

A tall, muscular human woman, pale of skin and dark of hair strolls into the establishment. She takes everything in, a crooked smile gracing her reddened lips. She brushes absently at the leather that fails to cover her form but for the briefest of places, and showing a multitude of scars on her flesh. She smirks at one of the bouncers who leers at her.

"Hildmor sent me to see his lady. She's expecting a demonstration of my talents."

Kree walks up to the oracle, gently stroking the woman's scalp with her fingertips and offering a smile.

"Stacking letters tall in crooked towers? The sweetest did scrape away the edges that you might still be, little spider. Where orbs may reach, these starry mirrors hold so to dress the silken threads in gold."

A fairly tall, muscular human woman, tanned skin and tawny hair strolls into the establishment. She takes everything in, a smirk forming to her lips. She removes the crowned helm and holds it under her right arm, her shield is held to her left. Otherwise she is well covered in shining plate armor that hides her own scars, save for those on her hands. She smirks at one of the bouncers who leers at her giving him a cool look.

"Hildmor sent me to see his lady. Apparently, she has staff suitable for my needs. And that will not be you"

Contrary to her words spoken with Hildmor, she does not select from Kreezya's 'staff' a 'mindless brute' but one of the more quieter mature males, still in his prime and showing some intelligence and discretion.

Two hours later, relieved of his customer, the man staggered to Kreezyia to ask for the rest of the antipeak off and to also report a minor incident. Kree would see that his hair was standing on end, charged with energy and that his chest bore two 'hand-prints' of blackened skin, all were gradually healing and regenerating. He gives to her a pouch of coin over and above the agreed 'fee' stating it had been given by his customer as compensation for the accidental injury with apology.

Further inquiry of the male would reveal that he was quite prepared, eager even, to serve this lady again, saying that she had explained to him that she had merely been tired and distracted by something on her mind to ensure timely and appropriate protective resistances were in place.

Hildmor smiles at the Oracle as well and nods to Kree, offering her the keys...


Soon enough, Hildmor and both women would be back in Serpent's Gaze, the Oracle soon enough left in her guarded room. They would probably meet both Manon and Kier at some point. When meeting Manon, Hildmor is rather polite. He inquires about the quality of services and introduces her to Kreeyzia:

"Dearest, please meet Manon, a recent business partner of mine and an artist of weaponcraft."

If approached by Kier, he would greet her politely as well. She would be directed to Kree's office at some point after the mistress' return either way.

Kierisen's eyes flick to Hildmor and she acknowledges the greeting.

"I'll await the mistress' pleasure. I understand she's busy, and I am sure she will agree, the demonstration will be worth the wait."

Upon the inquiry and introduction, Manon replies to Hildmor that all was satisfactory, turning to Kree fully then to say

"I wish to compliment you on your fine establishment. Be sure I will visit again and hope to further acquaintance with you as I begin to with your distinguished partner. Hildmor has told me a little about you, that you have quite the artist's talent."

Her grey eyes flick to Hildmor and she would offer a light smirk to both and continue

"I apologise again for the small incident with your employee. I shall endeavour for it not to happen again, unless so desired."
