Friends were hard work, Sazven has decided.
Riazle was sulking about her wandering off when they'd been chasing the
marans. His way had been so boring though! She'd gathered up all the
nightwalkers for him and had been waiting for the accident, but he'd said
that they should leave Maethian and then said she was being a menace or
something before storming off in a huff. He was being a little bit
unreasonable, but she was sure he'd come around eventually.

Then she'd tried to make friends with a thief named Bartimus since Riazle
wasn't talking to her at the moment, and it had been going well - then he
strangled her on the east road with a wire and called the Marans to come
and kill her. She'd resolved that Bartimus would not be having an accident.
He'd be having a very messy and painful death, and there would be nothing
accidental about it. Sometimes meditating on Weh made her strong and
sometimes fast, but she had a feeling this would be one of the times it
just made her feel great.

Maybe she should just give up on friends. She was doing pretty well on her
own after all. Each time she broke someone with her magic and meditated
over their remains she felt that little bit more. More what, she wasn't
sure - but definitely more. Like a pool ran dry with the drip of a spring
striving to once more make it full.
