∞ 82: Waiting for the next step [action]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Now that things have calmed down around the village and the rain from earlier in the week has dried, Albert is getting around to cleaning up his poor garden. Long-wilted white and blue moonflowers and morning glories litter his garden where trellises are propped up next to them, so he's pruning and plucking them out from between the growing flowers.

His horse is hanging around the house today, eating from a bale of hay.

It's a pretty idle scene on a sunny day. At least he's not closed up in his room, reading old books and drinking wine. That can be saved for tomorrow, when the weather's even warmer.]

[A "good reason" is so subjective, Prince. Nonetheless, Albert nods.] Very good. Your priorities have already served you well here.

I'll be honest: I don't like letting a killer run loose. But people come first, and if inciting him will make him lash out at others, then I'll leave him be as long as he doesn't do anything.

Not to mention if I seek a fight, it's likely I'd drag Miakis into it. With an unknown enemy it’s not a good idea.

Even if he was more dangerous than he presents himself, he would not be easily caught. And there are other individuals who more readily make themselves threats to the larger population -- the "assault" we had a few weeks ago, for example.

True. It's merely unsettling to know there is a potential threat running around that has not been kept in check. ["Unchecked" in any way that he knows of, anyway.]


That assault was far more dangerous, true. Trees... they could crush people so easily. Luckily, I had my Rune magic and met up with Tir.

Fortunately, we have many people capable of defending themselves and others here. And any damage to the buildings is repaired by the Malnosso, if it is left alone.

I find it interesting so many people here are able to fight or use magic. It is indeed fortunate, though.

Ah... The house thing... was interesting. [He’d forgotten about that and completely freaked out the morning he found their window and wall repaired.]
