The voice asks:

"
What is it you desire most?"

by Mon May 25, 2015 5:28 pm

"
Purpose."
Edmund replies simply. "
Purpose, in what one does and why."

Somewhat surprised at his own answer, he chuckles to himself. "
Right now, I wonder, what is your purpose?"

by **Reader** Mon May 25, 2015 8:35 pm

"
My purpose is to live my life as best I can, and help others do the same, while having a great deal of fun doing it."

You cannot see the figures face, but you know in your heart by the tone he has a broad grin.

"
That was your third question. What should be mine?"

The figure pauses for a long moment.

"
Do you have anyone you love so much you would sacrifice your life for them?"

by Mon May 25, 2015 11:07 pm

"
Yes."
Edmund responds with certainty. "
Any man who is unwilling to sacrifice for another he loves, is no man."

If that is true, you are a very lucky man."
replies the figure. "
Many are too selfish to make such a sacrifice, or have not been fortunate enough to find someone to love so deeply. Cherish it."

The crouching figure rises. "
An entertaining game. Perhaps the Gods will afford us another some time. Good health to you, stranger. I hope you find the truth you seek. I would start with the money lenders and those that handle the wagers of the tourney. Even if they are not involved, finding out who is borrowing and who is winning might bring you leads. Secrets are not easily kept when money is involved."

Stepping off into the darkness, the figure disappears to land lightly behind the wall. Only a few footsteps can be heard before there is silence.
