My eyes widen in surprise at the weight of the pouch - that's a good sum of money to outfit Lelika. However more important is Devira's words, and the ring. Sliding it on, I close my eyes and try to hear her thoughts. As much as ours is a faith of pain, punishment, torture, vengeance and suffering, there is also love that is encouraged to bloom. I want to treat Lelika well and make her happy and stronger, so this can assist me.<br/><br/>"Thank you, Mistress. We will get Lelika equipped appropriately for the task at hand, I will stock up for a few days' worth of Agony... and then we'll head out to further the goals of our Lady."<br/><br/>I give Lelika's hand a brief squeeze, smiling, then bow to Devira.<br/><br/>"I promise we will return successful, worthy of your blessings."
