You find yourself sitting in Calypso’s tent. She pulls the velvet cloth off her crystal ball before smiling.
You came to seek guidance from the crystal ball, wi?
You nod in agreement. The Voodoo Child proceeds to wave her hands in front of the ball, causing red smoke to plume from within it.
I can see a shepherd walking down a dirt road. He leads a herd of sheep alongside him down this path. La makòn mouton trust that he will guide them safely back to their pen by following in his footsteps, as they have so many times before.
However, la gadò mouton gets sidetracked by a stranger that promises him everything his heart desires.. All he had to do was walk off the path and follow them to their hut. The shepherd, unable to resist such temptation, does as the stranger asks, taking his sheep with him.
She shakes her head.
As they walk farther off the road, the sheep begin to disappear one by one. Some have returned to the path they walked on, seeking familiarity and safety. Those that remained with the shepherd were easily picked off by wolves and other predators.
By the time the malere moun realized there was no hut, it was too late. His sheep were gone and the stranger had made an idyo of him for believing that one man could provide him with everything he desires.
She covers the cloth over the ball, tutting.
You and Malakai face a great danger, zanmi. The red smoke and the vision I received from the crystal ball warns me of such. He is about to make a grave mistake and you are going to suffer the consequences.
He is being tempted to stray from the path by this Nick Morningstar character. Your leader came to Tombstone in the hopes that he’d bring Hades back to Arcadia. However, with the arrival of this fraud, Malakai is in danger of weakening the House of Judgement for the sake of his own, short sighted interests.
If you’re able to see through Nick’s facade, then you’ll stick to the path and warn Malakai and the rest of the fools of the errors of their ways. Otherwise, Zeus will sick us wolves on the ones that follow your shepherd, leaving him without any followers or power in our group.
Her smile returns as she walks towards you.
Your chèf should know better than to stray from the path he made with Tombstone months ago. If he truly believed that he wouldn’t go after him for betraying him for a deceiver, then he has brought this fate upon himself.
Tell your boss that this upcoming match is a warning to remain on the path. Six Feet Under, and by extension the House of Judgement, do not like it when someone tries to take off to follow a liar.
Now be on your way. Tell Malakai that fortune favors me in our match unless he is willing to remain on the road we built.
You dash out of the tent.
