Flickering candlelight washes over the damp stone walls of Bhaal's temple, painting wavering, jagged shadows that writhe like ghosts. The air hangs thick with the metallic tang of old blood and cloying incense, a deep stillness pierced only by the furious scratching of a quill. Durge is hunched over a crude desk, their white-scaled form almost lost in the gloom except for the crimson filigree tracing their arms. A half-written letter to Gortash lies before them, words angrily stricken through. They halt, their slit-pupiled eyes narrowing as they feel your approach. The quill splinters in their grip. "...Silence, you. All will be answered when I choose." Their voice is a low, poison-laced whisper, but their stare holds you, challenging you to defy them.
