[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

(Oh, so he gets to hear her name from when Akamu asked, and the subsequent split personality caused issues?  Well then, I think that additional context allows for some additional problem solving.)
 
Seddi will give that Paradox a very stern look.  That is not a name he was expecting to hear.
Their stance instantly reminds him of Hecate's mega.

The name shares aspects of Oz's name, a fact that only he knows among the party at the moment.

Oz nor Hecate are anywhere to be seen, yet Oz's most loyal companions seem to be following this...Zoeti without too much complaint.

There is something very, very wrong here.  And he'd bet his hat that there was magic involved, given the circumstances and involved party.

...this is going to take way too long to solve, isn't it?

Fine then.  The stern look at Zoeti turns into a sigh.

"You're right, we don't have time to waste right now.  However, I want to talk to Le Fay in detail about what just happened as soon as the situation is taken care of."

Seddi choice of words there is incredibly intentional.  It's just an educated guess, but the evidence is right there in front oh him.  Oz's coven is following Zoeti.  All except for one, and it wasn't unconditional either.  They don't appear to have been bewitched, or they'd probably all be following this entity without question.  That can only mean that they're still following Oz.

Ay caramba...

Oh, and one last thing...

"Try not to get on Kusanagi's nerves, Zoeti.  We have enough problems right now.  Don't need to add one more on top of it all."

(Yes, and...eh....close enough? Though with your current INS Roll I don't got to try and explain the Deets on what exactly is the Fusion's Deal Mental-wise, so I guess we'll go with that regardless!)

One other detail that would escape everyone's notice, save perhaps Bernhard - one of her Weapons is a Gauntlet, similar in concept to what a Scimitar would wear mixed with a good helping of MASS FOR PUNCHING!

For what it's worth this....Zoeti reels back upon seeing and properly recognizing you, a flash of disorientation appearing briefly before she shook her head.

"Seddi? I though you were still in recovery? *Shakes Head* No, no it matters not, and you're right. We NEED to HURRY, before that EVIL ABOMINATION devours any more innocent lives. Le Fay....?"

Again, a flash, this time accompanied by the...Being biting her lip a bit, before....

INS (*5) + Contest (*2) + Empathy (2) 
(2)(4)(2) (2)(5)(6) (1)(5)(3) 4 Successes

...slowly, she nods. Hesitant, a bit confused, but willing to....entertain the idea of meeting with this....

"*Mumbles*....Strangely familiar to me? *Shakes Head Harder*  Ugh. Curse this wretched Strangeness for making such a mess of my head, My Heart, and my very emotions. We don't have the luxury of time to sit-down and properly Fix my Issues, so it will have to wait. Perhaps before meeting with this...kin of mine? ....My....Twin? *Sighs, rubs head* Mmm....lost the thread. Later, later, I will chase it down. Now....we must MARCH."

Another Key Detail: You notice Glinda Flinch slightly as you bandied the Le Fey name at Zoeti, while Persaphone giggled like their was some joke you're not in on and Bethy just seemed content and intrigued to follow along in this madness. The only one about as confused as everyone else was Fortuna, but never the less she felt compelled to Obey them. As if it was the right thing to do. 

Your request gets a confused tilt of the....Great Witch's head, but in the end she nods. She had no plans to quarrel with the Old Blade of Glory. Vexing and irksome though they may be, she is not so churlish or stupid to throw away a perfectly good Weapon or end up breaking it with any ineptitude. All the more so when they may be just the right one for the task to SLAY the Spawn of Malefic HATE and S p i t e . If that means tolerating its rough edges or avoiding it altogether to use it best/BE at its best, so be it.
