"We number in the hundreds, across the City," Nightmare answered.
"I am well versed in the particulars of the situation," Venom spoke up. "But the sentiment is noted. Disappointment results in death. You would be wise to remember this."
The figure stood, walking forward towards Edward. "Now, Comet, this is the second failure of yours in regards to the Swarm entity known as Nudd. I expect there to be no more repeats."
She drew nearer, entering the light. Her face was a mask, devoid of emotions, while her body would tempt most men. She was stunning, yet it was obvious of the danger that lurked beneath the surface. Her right index finger slid down Edwards face, the nail applying pressure ever so slightly.
"I will give you my blessings, with a gift and a curse," she announced. A knife appeared in her left hand, deftly cutting into the back of Edwards left hand. "You will bear that Mark forevermore. In return you will have my protection from the toxins and diseases ones such as Nudd use. Further more, you will not speak of what you have seen and heard here tonight, nor will you expand upon the meaning and cause behind the Mark. This I have proclaimed, thus it is Law."
Another cut, in her own palm this time. Blood dripped into the open wound of Edward's hand. "You will remove Nudd from this existence before seven days have passed," she said with a hint of a threat in her voice as she turned away, walking back to her throne in the shadows. Her form appeared to shift when she was seated, her voice becoming distorted again. "Do not disappoint me."
Nightmare stepped forward again. "Upon the Mistress's orders, I will direct you to the exit, blinded by cloth. It will be removed when we have reached a distance away. Ask any questions now."
