Calamity collapsed onto the cushioned furs Obi laid out and accepted the food readily. When Venom entered, Tox rose and she and Obi dipped their bodies in a sort of respectful curtsey, "Greetings to Empress Venom." Only after Venom settled did Tox do the same and Obi got back to work. He offered them each water and smoked meats. Pestilence came and also settled, receiving the same offerings as the others, although Venom's cuts were more carefully selected by Obi to be more tender and satisfying than the rest on account of her rank. Once everyone was present, Toxicity spoke, "Calamity and I return from the mountain which took our father nearly two years ago. I prayed for his guidance and for his grace in accepting Calamity back onto the right path. While I prayed, and while Calamity climbed, Pestilence attacked me from behind." Tox gave pause to evaluate her sibling's reactions and mental states. "While I'd rather not linger on her, I did explain once that if I met her again, I would be inclined to cull her. She gave neither of us an option. With Calamity's help I was able to reopen a wound on her neck and fall her off the edge of the mountain." Toxicity took a moment to drink from the water that Obi provided and he took the pause to burn some relaxing herbs over the low-coal fire in the middle of the room to help soothe the tension. "We broke her blood-bound sigil. She is no longer god nor mortal and her soul should be dispersed as such. I thought... to talk to our father about this since he died while fighting his own brother." |
