It's your guess which fate I've deemed worse." They don't move at all. They don't have a hint of distress in their voice. "Your killing is getting in my way. You know I don't take kindly to that."
The Mask seems to go silent for a moment, Rowan’s possessed body stopping for a moment, after a few seconds the body collapses. The Mask finally speaks back up “I won’t get in your way as long as you are here, as long as you let me go without harm to me or my vessel.” They seems be in a talking mood more than a moment ago.
"I don't think you get what I'm saying. Your entire modus operandi is a threat to my organization. I can get you a corpse or something. A homunculus. Whatever. But you going around possessing people brings Hunters to my doorstep. They're less like the Foundation and more... the GOC. Fanatical, omnicidal zealots trying to maintain an outdated system of normalcy. They'll kill all of us, you included. And I can't have that just yet. Do you understand where I'm coming from now?"
Allison stumbles around outside, covering her muffled screams with her hand. The tattoo burns into her neck like a brand. She sobs quietly, black bile smudged around the corner of her mouth. She spits it out on to the ground, stumbling to her daughters grave.
Stroth, not knowing how to feel about Sparrow's profession of love, is pacing around the top of the tavern, thinking. She hasn't been in live for awhile, kinda smothering her emotions to become a better... everything really. She thinks she likes him but love seems like a word so foreign to her own ears.
Sable is walking around the property of the tavern, carving sigils expertly into trees, stones, and the ground. He hums to himself as he does, the Archlich seeming happy almost.

Isaac is in the main room having a drink
He smells the scent of undead filling the room, or perhaps it's something more. Something different than undead but not quite something else.
He tries to find the source of the smell
He sees Sable outside, the smell getting stronger from the ground he is drawing.
Allison stumbles around outside, covering her muffled screams with her hand. The tattoo burns into her neck like a brand. She sobs quietly, black bile smudged around the corner of her mouth. She spits it out on to the ground, stumbling to her daughter’s grave.
They see Rowan, the mask on their face, a different air to their very being, some kind of black Ichor dipping from the mask’s eyes, the smell of burning flesh coming from the Ichor, as well as his body itself. He seems completely different, like he’s someone new.
Allison looks over, almost jumping from getting startled like that. "Oh.. Hello Rowan." She covers her mouth.
A near identical black bile drips from his eyes, the eyes pitch black, they tilt their head, speaking but their voice isn’t exactly Rowan’s “You think Rowan is still here? He told you about the voices.”
With a quick flick of her wrist, a rapier is now in hand. She looks a mess, black bile dripping down her chin and burning the ground, sweaty from her body being attacked by the brand on her neck. "Where is he. What have you done with him."
They reach up with a sharp nail, practically a claw, putting it to his temple “He is in here somewhere, and he’s watching. He wants to be free, he doesn’t want me near you.” The claw begins to dig into his flesh, blood dripping from the wound “He thinks that you should never have to see me, but it’s far too late for that.”
Without even thinking, she reaches out, grabbing their wrist and pulling it away from the wound. "Don't do that." She hisses.

*Epic! I'm so glad that I've created something that engages you so much.*
"Well, I'd be happy to tell you. See, when you eat a Spectre, they become part of you. Effectively, they cease to be their own unique entity. But my Stigmorta changes that rule. When I eat a Spectre, I keep their soul, or souls, depending on the power level of the individual Spectre. So, because I am an excellent cook and have the occult skills to kill Spectres manually, even in the afterlife, I was picked to be the executioner for the Sovereign Spectre. They did not know about my Stigmorta. So I was supposed to prepare the criminals to be eaten by the Sovereign. But I ate little bits myself, little morsels, and I saved the souls of the convicts that way. I try to let them out as much as possible, since living in my stomach prison isn't very fulfilling, I don't believe."
*I'm loving how our ideas are blending together for these characters! I didn't initially plan for them to both get Hawk-Mothed, but the opportunity felt too fun to pass up. I'm excited to see where this leads!*
"Interesting. I wasn't aware that there was a Sovereign before- well, I don't think I was, anyway. This is all so interesting...."
*I love coming up with wild Spectres to fit our needs. I hope other players want to engage at some point. I'm gonna have to finish up with the "heroes" soon in order to introduce them to forcefully advance the plot.*
"It is, I guess. I'm glad that you're interested in learning about the culture. But even I don't know everything about what goes on down there. We're still learning about all the metaphysics, you know? It's a science and an art. Ever evolving, always phasing rules in and out as people realize that their theories were false... I try to keep up with the curve, but I'm banned from the Afterlife for my numerous failures to catch a certain group of Hunters."

"Understandable. Sometimes it's nice to get away from all the action and take a moment to unwind a bit." She absently dislodges a shingle from the roof and begins sharpening the claws on her other hand against its surface. Occasionally sparks fly from where the metal scrapes against it.
"you probably shouldn't remove people's shingles," He comments
"Ah, right." She slots the shingle back into place with some difficulty.
