Every door they past Peter would poke his head into, calling out Elsa's name in an increasingly desperate voice. Several times he almost ran ahead of the warlock in a frantic frenzy, only to catch himself with a start and draw back in fear in equal part what lay ahead, and of his companion.
"Really? Oh, my mistake. I thought this thing was a fel hound! Not a friendship puppy," Max replied snappishly.

"Look boy! Chicken dinner. Go lie on her for a while."

Khadomo barked playfully and opened his mouth to lick Max's face, only to be stopped by Tarnik.
"
Sorry, big fella, he's still a human and very much allergic to your saliva,
" the imp told the demon dog. The latter tilted his head to the side and whined sadly.
"Looks like this place is completely void of life by now," Meyer said eventually, tapping a tank holding a deceased likeness of the Predator inside. "Reichten, you well-meaning empty-headed son of a lich..."

"Try her," Max said, jerking his head at the harpy.
Peter studiously avoided the tanks, looking instead around to the musty corners in fright. "B-but where! Went somewhere, sure of it. Didn't come out with us. Saw that. But...must be here! Elsewhere to go? No, no. None. Didn't see her," he said, worrying his lip and running his hands over the other in worry.

"This Elsa person, does she have at least the brains mother Nature deemed enough for a turnip?" Wilhelm asked grouchily. "If yes, I would vouch she has left this morbid place for somewhere more fit for a human."

"She left? How. Don't know...Don't know. Should. Where, though?" Peter exclaimed. He didn't seem to be adressing the warlock specifically, or even looking at him. Rather, he seemed to be speaking to the room as a whole.

"A room over there has a hole in the ceiling," Meyer gestured. "Looks like someone could have fallen through it."

"Of course!" Peter clapped his hands. "The duct! Fell through! Sharp way down. Cut self. So did she. Irrelevant, though. Not important. Another entrance! Is. Way in. Out, therefore. But, if so, where to. Where to go..."

"Where would you go?" Meyer prodded, with what little patience he had.

"Don't know the area," Peter continued ambiguously, speaking either to Meyer or not. "Went straight here from Darkshire. Then...perhaps, there? Could be. Best bet, at least. Shouldn't bet. Have to know. Yes...Yes...Know! That, where she'd go. Only..." He grew silent and looked back the way they came.
"Irene..." he murmured.

"If you 'ad to eat the muck we get, there's not much you wouldn't rather 'ave," the boy responded casually, " 'sides, they eat
our
dead, so it's kinda a love-'ate sort of thing."
After a few moments the doors were unbarred and pulled open by the sentries on duty.
" 'right, stick close, wouldn't want anyone thinkin' you was up to no good," the corporal told the group, walking inside.
Elsa Wolftongue
Darkshire, Duskwood
Elsa laid her head on the table with another sigh, picturing herself going up to the bartender and ordering a bottle of the strongest drink he possessed.
She would do it right, she decided, unlike those cowards...
Then again, what would happen to all of her gold if she was gone? The pickpocket shuddered, the thought of other people spending
her
money causing her to experience greater revulsion than she had ever felt in her entire life.
She clutched at her necklace protectively, the one object she could truly call her own, and closed her eyes.

"So that's the name of your revenge-driven girl friend," Wilhelm drawled, making sure to emphasize the pause between 'girl' and 'friend' - the last thing he needed right now was the boy dramatizing how the soon-to-be bloated cadaver was most definitely not his prospective mating partner.
"Listen, Pete, I have something of a plan for the nearest future. We go to Darkshire, we turn the flower-sword kid over to the authorities, I create a containment amulet and we track Irene down. If we stumble on this Elsa while in town, far be it from me to stop you from talking to her.

For the first time, Peter looked at Wilhelm. The young priest looked very small, scared and alone at that moment surrounded by the shadows of the crypt. In the thin green light of the tanks he ran his hands over the other fretfully. Dragging his eyes to Wilhelm though a force of will, he shakily nodded.
"A...Okay..." he shuddered.

"Finally, we have a breakthrough," Wilhelm threw his hands up in the air dramatically.
"Seriously, if a friendly neighborhood warlock with the Crown's patent - it's a very fancy patent, may I add - unnerves you so much, how did you intend to face the Razzmatazz person?"

Peter shifted uncomfortably. "Well...that is...ah...didn't...erm...sell soul to...demons." The last word was little more than a squeak.

"I see. Out of idle curiosity, does not your church of tolerance and temperance teach that there are uncorrupted warlocks and necromancers?" Meyer tilted his head to the side.

"You can relax," Wilhelm shrugged. "It is true that most of warlocks are power-mongering, often frothing at the mouth, lunatics. Even those uncorrupted as yet and working under the license are watched closely, for the lure of Fel is more powerful than you can imagine and any warlock can fall to temptation at any given moment. Every waking second is a small yet fierce battle for one's humanity, a constant need to remind oneself why should we work to better the world that fears and hates us for all the right and wrong reasons.
The second most common death for a warlock is a suicide - both before the Fel can claim him and after the corruption relents and in a moment of clarity he realizes what a monster he had become.
Yet, the Royal Magi Society and the Kirin Tor recognize our potential for good when properly leashed, though they will deny it vehemently if asked outright. Only the most stable, sanest, the most cunning and coldblooded bastards get the license, for it is generally agreed that the profit is outweighed by the possible outbreak, the consequences of which can be dealt with swiftly.
Like I said, there is no need to panic. Now that we have gotten to know each other, you are practically in no danger whatsoever," Meyer finished, yet another of his rant delivered in a steady monotone bereft of emotions.
