Boon and Burden

All for being a martyr instead of a murderer follow me! A Wish that Quori had never been a murderer

E.
We came this far.
No backing out now, cowards.

E. Ask if she really enjoys it, or if sometimes she wishes she didn't get those urges. We've been fighting our own for so long, after all. Will we really feel better if we just give in and indulge ourself?

"Do you really enjoy it, or do you wish you didn't get those urges?"

She looks up at you, as if you've grown another head. Covered in spikes.

"I've just... been repressing it for so long, does it really feel better if I just give in?"

"Deep satisfaction, a fleeting sense of victory, then ennui. In the meantime, you won't have to deal with a certain brand of homework, now will you? Don't make a habit of killing people you know, by the way, or you'll be traced. Go for a demographic. This is a one off deal, though, and we're making it look like an accident."

She grins slyly. "If you're thinking of backing out on me now, girl, I have my ways of getting revenge."

Turning back to the drawing, she starts dictating where you'll need to be standing, and the angle you'll need to be at. After a few minutes, you can see her stop taking the world in as she explains.

A: Try making the wish
B: Make a different wish
C: Run. Don't look back.
D: Talk her out of it, or try to.
E: Inquire about the ways she can find out, risking arousing her suspicion.
F: Go through with the plan
G: Finish it. Put the girl out of her own, and the world's, misery.

You slid your dagger out of its holster, hold it to your side, and slowly approach Quori.

You're right up close, and she doesn't turn.

You quickly move your knife in front of her throat, and before she has time to do more than shout 'YOU—!' you pull the knife close, and blood spurts forward.

There's blood on your arm.

Her front is covered in blood.

Her mouth flapped twice, and now she's still.

You fling your legs out, and she's – the body is – thrown forward and smashes against the wall. You reel backwards.

What did I just do...? What have I done?

You're cold. Emotionally, and physically. You wipe the blood off your arm onto her frock. Onto... its frock.

And then, you break down. You turn away, there's no way you can look, and bury your face in your hands, sobbing.

You recover about five minutes later. Not completely, of course. But your rational mind is able to get your attention at that point.

You just killed someone, congratulations.

As it is, your worldview and alignment are unable to take the strain of what you've just done. Something has to give. You have known this girl's crimes, and taken justice into your own hands.

A: I did what was right, not what the law says
B: I merely followed a different set of laws
C: She was killing people not far out of my sphere of influence, I had to stop her
D: I followed the spirit of the law, not my own heart. Unfortunately, there was no higher authority to judge than myself
E: This was the least risky option, safety-wise
F: I'm just racking up good deeds to tell people about later
G: I'm just eliminating the competition
H: No higher reason, I wanted to kill

If she's been killing without getting caught to the point she can make plans for other people? It's just pragmatism. A would be closest.

Ok, I change to full A.

Y'know what? I'm flipping for it.

Heads: D

"Pyrahlmir," you whisper.

The knife gleams, and seems to take in the flecks of rust. They cease to be decay, somehow, and the knife gains a marbled pattern.

You got Pyrahlmir!

You have unlocked a new title.
