Chapter Text
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Her name was Eloque. She had no hope that the Gold-rank adventurer would save her. He could not save himself. She was merely curious.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Everyone in the caravan looked at Pisces Jealnet. Yet what Eloque noticed from her vantage point was that mighty Azam, the Djinni, watched Pisces too.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) “—that would be Eloque. She’s of Droppe’s people. But I do not think you will see her walking with us. No, not at all. She is—important—”
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) When she first heard of the sum, Eloque had to gasp. She was worth a fraction of that price! Then—her lip curled and she was a bit disgusted with herself.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) They still had not met, yet Eloque found herself thanking Pisces even further; the obsessed Hrome meant that Igheriz drank and socialized. Less time to spend with her.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) What intrigued her was not just the price. As she rode and numbers raced down the caravan, Eloque listened to the shouts.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Igheriz was in high spirits. He would visit her tonight, drink or not. Eloque stared out the flaps in the wagon, then turned her head.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Eloque prodded Azam, wondering if she could stir him to anger or any emotion. She succeeded, but to her surprise, it was a smile that flashed across his face. His lips quirked, then his face went flat.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) This was true, but Eloque was still impressed by it. More than that…this was not the reason Azam stared at Pisces, then.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) His eyes flicked to hers again and Eloque felt a shock as the power in him revealed itself. Azam frowned. He was displeased.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Eloque rested her chin on the lip of the wagon and then winced as it jolted and her jaw clicked together. She rose, rubbing at the spot.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) He nodded to Igheriz, still rapturously calling out. Azam glanced at Eloque and hesitated, but then lowered his voice slightly.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Eloque’s eyes widened. She looked at Azam and realized. The Djinni was not staring at Pisces for interest in the man.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Her curiosity grew still further, and Eloque resolved to talk to Pisces. Perhaps to gain the measure of a man worth half a million gold pieces.
Interlude – Pisces (Revised) Still, he made merry that night. And that was how Pisces discovered who Eloque was. And how he began to see deeper into Roshal’s depths.
