|---|---|
| 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. |
| Interlude – Pisces (Revised) | “I—I knew you were lucky, Pisces. But this is more than you or I dreamed, eh? I will convey you to the Naga and be rich beyond dreams. So—so let us have fun! Eloque! Astotha, fetch her. And you, Pisces. Which one of Hrome’s or mine would you fancy? Cawe? I see you talking.” |
| Interlude – Pisces (Revised) | “Excellent! Fetch Cawe—no, make her presentable first. They will have one tent—and I? There you are, Eloque. Pisces, come meet my personal…masterpiece. Do you see? Do you understand my genius?” |
| Interlude – Pisces (Revised) | Eloque was a Lizardfolk woman. Astotha had told Pisces that she had been beautiful, acquired by Igheriz in some port, and the [Slave Master] had been instantly besotted. However. She was still Lizardfolk and Igheriz was a Stitch-man. |
| Interlude – Pisces (Revised) | “There is nothing more beautiful than cloth, Pisces. If I marry, it will be one of my people. Silk, if they will have me. But a man’s tastes go to the exotic, so Eloque I will keep. And she looks far better to me, already. I have had Humans, other people adorned just so, but had to sell them. Is she not beautiful? Do you see?” |
| Interlude – Pisces (Revised) | Pisces looked at Eloque and saw…thread. Thread, amidst scales. She looked at him, and he saw how she looked as patchwork as Stitchfolk. Igheriz had changed her by sewing string into her body, mimicking the seams of Stitchfolk around her joints. |
