Velen had just finished talking when Scarlett did something unexpected. She laughed in his face.
?Clearly you don?t need any of us to help you, so goodbye, be on your way. But if I was you I would stay clear of the official trails through the mountains. It?s likely every Red Stain, north to south, will be looking for you anyway. Try not to die.? Scarlett remarked dryly.
It was a likely scenario that someone from the Risenforth Court, officially or otherwise, was offering a large reward for their deaths, and right now Scarlett would take the job just out of spite. Especially given the Red Stain's ties with the Nobles. It wouldn?t be difficult. She might even have a little fun along the way and kill the Dean of the North just as they where due to meet with him and frame them for a murder they never committed. She smiled inside and filed away all the information these kids had told her. Right now her priorities where elsewhere.
Walking into the Eternal Mist she walked over to Tobias drawing a knife behind her back.
He knows too much. I should? no, at least wait until I am leaving. Vergil will never realise then.
Slipping her knife away Scarlett turned around and walked outside and down the street.
Time to find the ?Road?. The secret road North.
