I Need To Stop Saying That Thing's Can't Get Any Worse

by Meryll

Vulcrom, I figured that I'd be glad to be here again but all I feel instead is a constant strain on my mind.
 
Bo is being hunted by a crime lord. Organised criminals are always the worst kind to deal with because they're actually fuckin' smart and now the world is demanding of us that we be smart too. We have very few pieces on the board and this 'Madame' lady has so many that they had to bring a second board just to make room. If we make a wrong move then we're screwed, but if we don't move then we're done for. I need information and the only person who I can think of is this Nafoora chick that Grim was talking to. Maybe I'll be able to get something useful out of her, something that gives me a clue where to go next.
 
Not to worry though, my plate was pretty full already and someone dropped an anvil in the shape of a soul comsuming sword onto it and now shits fucked. Covenant joined the crew recently, and though I doubt that decision I can't just let someone with a fuckin' demon sword just fuck around eatin' souls all day so he's with us so that he can help and so I can keep an eye on him. He seems to hate his sword which is at least a little reassuring.
What wasn't reasurring was the fact that Grim wants to feed it the souls of our enemies. Truth be told the guy was a little eager to do that in my opinion and I'm not really sure what the fuck to do about that one. That fuckin' guy is a mystery to me at the moment, in one breath he's telling me that he wants folks to be good in the other his first thought on how to deal with the sword is "Well we'll just feed it souls of people we don't like." and even when I say that getting your soul ripped out for all eternity is a little fuckin' extreme of a punishment he just dismisses it.
 
I'm stressed.
I'd want to go home if I had a single home to go back to.
Bo and I had a nice chat about things so at least he knows where I'm coming from right now. Astris offered to help and I dismissed it, should probably stop doing that.
 
 
Oh, and to top it all off Vulcrom is getting a navy together because The Harpy pissed off the bank so that's gonna make things difficult for a lot of folks soon.
 
I hope this doesn't spell the end for folks like us.
