She spoke with authority and demanded supplies she needed for the cure. He didn't know the item, but it sounded like she wanted something called 'terror soup'. He did not know what 'terror soup' was or how it could help cure a curse, but he could tell the boy seemed troubled by the request. As he pondered this Alicia spoke up. “That would be me. I am Alicia,” she had said with a smile. “What business might you have with the Witch?” Ivan was confused by this proclamation. He glanced at his hoe, then back at Alicia. There was no reaction. He checked again, but still, no vibration could be felt. Sasha spoke next advising him against speaking with Alicia and proclaiming that she cursed people and something about black loin clothes. This caused Ivan's eyes to furrow. He looked at Sasha and while pointing at Alicia and said in a matter of fact tone, [color=7ea7d8]"She no witch. I know dis. Know not vhy she claim to be monstr, but if she vere I'd know "[/color] He then narrowed his eyes at Nidgadt, [color=7ea7d8]"Maybe she vants make rumor reality. I know not."[/color] He then turns to Kato, [color=7ea7d8]"I her you need supplies for curse. Know not vat vexes you, but vhere I from, ve help a comrade."[/color] Ivan then reaches into his coat and produces a solid gold coin. He holds it out to Ivan and says [color=7ea7d8]"I hope dis enough for 'terror soup'. I know vat curse be like. I live vith every day."[/color]
