He smiled at her, the best pleseant smile he could muster. Within however he was quite surprised when she mentioned the name. He had of course been bluffing, for all he knew her demon pal was still quite dead, no matter what rumors he had actually heard. This little tidbit on the other hand was all too rich for him not too enjoy. Dherris, the little usurpers lacky being the love of her life, the one soul so to speak that she clung too with all of her might even too the point of not caring anymore when he was supposedly gone? This continued to get better and better, well at the very least it was becoming more interesting at best.<br/><br/>He traced a finger along her dirty face, "my dear, if your dear lover is alive as they say, then I can assure you he will find you if we get you out of here. You do me a few services and he'll be able too find you no problem, and you can have your sappy little reunion and live your lives in joyous and sentimental happiness. So with that out of the way let's get you out of this...hmmm..runes...no problem there and the chains should be little trouble as well."<br/><br/>He traced the collar with his finger, murmuring under his breath, listening too the whispering of the magic that held them together. He smirked, too simple indeed, humans were so predictable, creatures of habit and hormone. He pulled a small blade from within his jacket, slicing across the surface of his left palm. Dipping his left fingers into the blood he traced a few small symbols onto his hand and pressed them against the collar. It was followed by some more murmruing and the runes glowed fiercly on the collar, dimmed, and with a resounding crack, the collar fell too pieces on the floor. He stood up, pushing with his will at his hand for a brief moment, watching the wound stitch itself, after all it was such a minor thing.<br/><br/>He traced his hands over the chains holding her, waiting patiently for the weak point. With a jerk of his arm, and a sharp pull from his mind, the chains broke from the wall. He proceeded to the others holding her and eventually all were clear. Now all that was left was too get her out of here and back where he needed her. This new information was something to be dealt with later, and what fun it would be if the rumors were true. A new twist for him to play with as he worked with her.<br/><br/>"Well m'dear, you are free from these chains, are you able to walk on your own?"
