"If he sees fit to ask for your help now, then that means he is a thorn in our side no longer, and obliging his request will cause more problems then it shall solve. Acknoledge it no more." Loki answered Jessica, not liking the tone with which she spoke about the first subject. "As for our current situation... I am swiftly losing my patience with it. If you can determine why her mind remains closed off and resolve this matter, do so now. But, you have two minutes to do so. If you cannot do this within the allotted time, and have yet to kill her, I shall have Nybeth do it for you." Having said that, Loki looked towards the direction where Nybeth was doing his work, saying, "Nybeth. That Promised Pain spell you mentioned before... Use it on our prisoner in two minutes unless I say otherwise." Looking back to Ness, Loki raised an eyebrow. "Even if I did require your help in the matter, forgive me if I am inclined to not take your word for it." Hearing Ness mentioned what blocked the scepter's power, Loki hmm'd softly. "That sounds like a thing that cannot be removed without killing you. How unfortunate for you."

OoC: Let's say two minutes=two posts.
