Trying to glean its meaning from the touch, as he had done before. Nothing came to him though. Not the faintest memory. He was about to jump up and delve in his papyrus mind. His cabin was home to books you could not find in any respectable establishment, and some scrolls you couldn’t find anywhere else in the world. But he was interrupted. By the new girl. Gears in his mind suddenly clicked. Things began to fall in place. From seemingly nowhere he pulled a Kris and rushed towards the girl, giving her no time at all to react before he grabbed her by the arm. The point of his serpentine dagger gently pushed against the soft spot under her chin. A wide-eyed Aharuhn looked her in the face, examining her and everything about her. Despite everything, he felt as if her sincerity was genuine. The sea-witch always followed his guts. Its what kept him alive. A moment passed, he didn’t say anything. Then, slowly, he lowered his Kris. [color=00aeef][b]“Who send you?”[/b][/color] he asked. [color=00aeef][b]“Was it that old hag Nesa Zurr? Or was Madame Toussemente? Is she controlling you now? Are you a puppet!?”[/b][/color] he yelled at her as he shook her. [color=00aeef][b]“No, she would’ve noticed. She wouldn’t have let you on board.”[/b][/color] He said out loud, more to himself than anyone else. Sane people would assume the Madame wouldn’t let her onboard. In reality, he was speaking about the ship. [color=00aeef][b]“Could it be? Is Hallenruth finally seeing sense?”[/b][/color] He said with a crazed smile.[color=00aeef][b] “Did he give you anything? A statuette or a pendant? No, no I would’ve seen it! Great Inéka I would have seen it! Why did I not see it!?”[/b][/color] He yelled and shook her again. He never gave her time to answer any of the questions he posed. All possibilities were whipped away from his mind. All impossible. All were prepared for. Nobody could take him. Not on the Mermaid’s Fortune. [color=00aeef][b]“Who told you to board this ship!?”[/b][/color] He snapped, directing everything towards her now. [color=00aeef][b]“Who told you to walk on the Fortune’s deck!?”[/b][/color]
