Ah, there it was. That inkling of words that drew out the mayor’s innermost thoughts and insecurities. Everyone had a story after all, and Alice was far too used to listening to the troubles of others. She stood in silence as the mayor explained his plight, all of it, to her. The daughter, the disappearance, and the boyfriend. Oh, and the forest. Whatever that may have entailed.

As the mayor broke down and sobbed, Alice watched him with unreadable eyes. Whether it was apathy or just simply a cool regard couldn’t be said, but she did leave to go get him that glass of water. When she returned and offered it to him, a smile was gracing her lips. Well then, that was as good a lead as any. And who knew? Maybe the twin disappearances were somehow connected.

[color=a187be]“There’s no need to fret Mayor Toll. I’m sure your daughter loves you very much. The kindness of a woman’s heart has no bounds, or so I’ve been told,[/color]” Alice said, leaning on the wall and humming with a finger rested against her chin. [color=a187be]“It’s quite possible she left you out of anger given your last interaction. But anger is only present when someone feeds the flames. Who’s to say your daughter isn’t regretting her choices and hiding in fear of [i]your[/i] anger Mister Toll?”[/color]
