As Vagile watched Rob enter Crix a seed of doubt entered his mind. He began to wonder if everything was as true as Crix said. Were they really going to a mermaid city? Was Alteria really even there? Vagile began to lose up just as quickly as Rob had vanished from his sight. Crix was an assassin afterall, and just because she was helpful to begin with didn't mean she would always be that way. Perhaps eliminating them was a solo mission of hers that had been given out by Crucible. Afterall, bloodhearts were highly sought after and here they were carrying 400 of them.<br/>Vagile found that his throat was dry and his tongue was stuck to the roof of his mouth. He had always thought that he was prepared for death, but now he was beginning to lose his resolve. He had swords. This was true, but could it cut her from the inside? Does she have some hidden trait to protect her from damage after ingesting someone? What's to stop her from changing her mind about the entire plan? Threats could only go but so far, and she never once seemed bothered by anything he said.<br/>Any moment now she would come for him and ask him to share the same fate as Robert. He could attack her now while she was vulnerable...but what if he was wrong about her? Not only would he not get the remaining bloodhearts, but Crucible and the other assassins would surely want him dead. Any moment now she would head over to him.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">What am I to do?</span>Vagile thought. He cursed himself for thinking too hard over things. It was one of the many faults he had.<br/><br/>(( Goodnight everyone ))
