Role

Chapter 2

Her plan had been working seamlessly for years, she recognized the importance
that orphans played in their position and she in hers. No one could quite
take care of them how she could- so when others werent looking she crushed
a bit of a castor seed and gave it to each child with their dinner of
porridge. Tevophelia was very well studied in the art of poison making,
perhaps the only thing her mother taught her before dumping her at an
orphanage doorsteps- in pursuit of her own quest for power.


The symptoms were mild enough to not bring about harrowing concern:
dehydration, fever, chills, lethargy. Symptoms she could easily deal with, a
few deaths were also necessary not just for her own vanity (sometimes she
went too far to see how much the kids needed her), but to ensure that Hamsah
understood why funding the orphanage was important. If they wished to keep
such illnesses from permeating into their own walls- it was good to send
funding to the orphanage to be able to deal with it. This plan was enough to
hold Tevophelias growing hunger for power at bay for years, however
something began to change in her. She began to plot what would happen if her
talents and methods were brought to a larger stage. With her political
knowledge, wit, and control of poisons and venom she could align with
stronger powers that be.
