WHOA WHOA THAT'S NOT WHAT WE SAID
We didn't say 'demons'! We meant 'da man's! Like they're cool! With us! And you shouldn't try to kill them!

>>11235
Exactly, you did not sense evil in them. Therefor they are not. How could you ever bear for slaying innocents, your companions even?

>>11235
Now ask: Does being made from evil make one evil themselves? They clearly carry the effects of this, inwardly and out, but does this make them deserving of death? What is their goal? The destruction of your enemy. Whether they later fall to evil is yet to be determined. It is not a foregone conclusion.

>"So they are demons. No evil did I sense from them, unholy as they may seemed, but now I have thine confirmation, oh elder spirits.

Don't be racist. Good demons are good regardless of being demons. They aren't evil. You have nothing against them.

Let's not be hasty. For all we know Raital might be an exception, and nearly all Demons in the setting might be inherently evil for some reason. We don't actually know much about them. We don't actually know much about anything, though.

>>11244
"But are they truly evil?"

>>11244
We didn't mention anything about lust for power. I think you should think about this for a second.

Are you SURE you're not jealous of Mudy? Search your heart and be sure, lest your heart be weighted by a wrong decision for all eternity.

>>11244

YOU'RE GOING TO DIE FUCKHEAD. WAIT FOR A BETTER OPPORTUNITY

>>11244
Follow your heart, Bladetree. You will not listen to us, so die a traitor to your own kind.

You will not be mourned.

Bladetree. Are you a virgin? At least get some pussy before you die.

Come on. You know you want to.

>>11258
Suicide is not the answer, Bladetree. You can use this lesser evil to defeat the greater.

After the Skullking falls, then you can dispatch this abominable relationship.

Use your foes against each other, as Leaffall The Mighty did so many years ago.

QUEST OBJECTIVE ACQUIRED: Get Bladetree laid.

>>11258
A cleansing we shall give you, my son. True love may lighten even the blackened heart of a demon, despite it's wicked source. Patience is the path of goodness and so is subtlety.

And one such as you is so blind to subtlety. We recommend you go forth to the fair maiden Axebeard. We think that not all face turn to Prince Mudy.

Stay thy blade, now is not the time! Your death would be for naught, for Raital will kill you and then nobody would be there to check the Kobold's lust for each other.

Have you considered, you know, talking to them about how their actions discomfort you? It's better to turn a sinner into a good man than it is to slay him.

>>11258
You still have to learn much, young paladin. Evil doth not come from birth, from the form, but from the heart. You, as a paladin, have to protect all good, regardless of as what it might appear. You know, that you do not sense evil in them.

>>11261
There's a universal cure-all for virginity called a brothel. Might he not be interested, given the ladies are classy enough and have hearts of gold?

>>11258
Technically the only woman who really threw herself at him was Raital. Another Blutjeager felt some attraction, but it could be compared to a cat finding a mouse particularly delicious looking.

More importantly... Are you motivated by a thirst for justice, a thirst for blood, or simple jealousy?

>>11258
That Axebeard chick seems pretty nice. Maybe you should ask her out on a date.

>>11271
Yes. Yes it is. For the ends justify the means in this case, and though you may be persecuted, called a traitor for it know in your heart you are truly not a traitor and did what was just and right in the situation. You shall be a hero, though the eyes of the public may not see you as such.

You must be hurt knowing your fate, noble warrior. Seek comfort with yonder maiden Axebeard.

>>11271
You must learn to use what tools you are given. Your blade is of no use against the Skullking, as Leaffall could not defeat the armies alone.

Your compatriots, evil as they are, have the power to challenge her, as did the goblins and dark elves have the power to challenge Leaffall's enemies.

The world may punish you for this. Your life may become painful, you may be locked away, your may be hurt or killed. However, your life will not be spent in vain, but in the service of a good far beyond interrupting the events in that tent.

Learn from history, Bladetree. Learn to level one evil against another.

Bring light and good to the world by any means available, Bladetree.

Do your duty.

>>11271
Stay true to your quest of good, and remember that noone is beyond redemption.

>>11271
Look, you spazz, even if it's wrong, those two are about the closest thing to heroes around here besides yourself. And the Blutjaeger's only that way because she's sexing the kobold.

Even if you've got a problem with it, they're still trying to stop a force of unimaginable evil with your king's consent. So the least you could do is wait until they've killed the greater evil before you go all crazy and get yourself killed by a Blutjaeger.
And if they fail, and die, then the problem solves itself.

In the meantime, why don't you just try to spend more time with Axebeard. She seems like she's pretty on the ball. Or else she's scouring away the memories with beer, which would also work.

You hear me? GO GET DRUNK.

Not to mention, that they are still not evil.

You see, Bladetree.
Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance.
As a soldier of my cause, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.
These two have cast off the shackles of the Skullking's evil and have sought the light in their own way.
Your duty is to help guide them toward the light, not strike them down in their hour of revelation, just as they have begun to shun the darkness that has plagued their existence.

>>11279
He kinda disagrees. Apparently his religion/actual ancestors that aren't us says Incest and Demons = Evil.

So yeah... we have to run along with it to prevent him killing them all.

Once Bladetree's had a few cups of that brew, compliment the lady's beard. It's such a fine, silky length of hair, no?

Mudy holds his breath. He could hear everything. Even the voices of the ancestral spirits somehow sounded clear as day to Mudy, unnatural as they were.
Will Bladetree truly betray them -- or is it fair to say he already did?
Mudy decides that as soon as he can focus again he will take this into deep consideration.



>End of Intermezzo

>>11311
Were you not... distracted by Raital?

>>11311
There are more important things to focus on right, now, little guy.

That is right Bladetree. Turn thee sin-dwellers against one another; hath thou not fall in tempation to strike empty-handed. Build thy power, grow in skill - smite hath villanous brood wence they least expect it.

Goddamit Bladetree. Now it's going to be all awkward at the coffee table everytime.

>>11334
"So, uh, how doth things go as a incestuous half-demon couple?"
"Pretty good. And you?"
"I still hath claw marks from-"
"OVERSHARE"

Pay it no mind, Mudy. Continue with the throes of passion to help you forget for the moment.

Also, note how there's less blood now than there was when Mudy awoke from their first rutting session. Handwaved for art conveniency, magical self-cleaning pillows, or someone else's tent?
