Thread: A Monster: Now and Forever (Razgriz x kuro_bara)

Ricendithas waited patiently, feeling him try to sever the cord between their minds even if Ricendithas couldn't actually use psionic abilities to directly affect a person's mind, being able to trace back where someone was mentally probing him from was a skill he'd learned over the years. Unfortunately though, despite the ease of falling into his honey well, this little bee was quite clever and managed to shield himself quite effectively. But that didn't mean this was a total waste if he was being probed, the warlock could only conclude that this was the person he thought was following him. You really shouldn't struggle, you know wouldn't want to give yourself an aneurysm or anything like that the warlock stated flatly, feeling his captive thrash against his bings. But then the intruder seemed to try to reach out to someone in particular one unfortunate effect of the trap Ricendithas used was that any attempts to reach out would immediately rebound on the user. It was great because they couldn't call for help, but bad because he couldn't then try to find who it was the victim was reaching out to. A slight twinge shot through the warlock's body as the headache caused from the rebound hit the spy, causing Ricendithas to add I warned you . Why I'm here, you ask. Simple...There may not be anything here in Venice, but what I am looking does not appear to have complete control of this area. Its stench covers the land in darkness, prohibiting all means of entrance through arcane measures. But here's what's going to happen Since you were obviously keen on finding out what I know, I'm going to ask you some questions. And you're going to answer them. Are we clear? . Ricendithas heard a sneer echo in his mind, the reply being Never....I will never betray the Baroness! You hunters are scum. You are so blind and self-righteous that you have no concept of consequence of your actions . Ah, so it's a she, is it? Tell me more about her the warlock replied, ignoring the - admittedly eloquent - insult. Aurel snarled, Go to hell and tried further to release himself from the bind. Ricendithas let out a sigh, Based on your responses, I can tell this thing... She is not a thing, you bastard! She's a loving and caring woman who loves her people! Now be silent and release me! I have nothing to say to you further . At this a rather sadistic smirk crossed the warlock's face, Oh, but I think you do you just need some convincing is all. Tell me something...What's your take on alchemy? Across the street the spy was utterly confused and could only reply The hell does that have to do with anything? More than you realize. The body is an amazing device but like every device it has weak points and vulnerabilities. For instance...The human body contains about sixty percent water on average. It's a vital component of our being, something that permeates every inch of our physical form. Yet we don't often realize how badly it can hurt us . He then paused for a moment, looking up to the sky in apparent contemplation before continuing, The most water rich sources in our bodies lies in the organs, brain and bone marrow. Now, the brain is little more than a computer, a means to act based on data provided to it. However, even it can be overloaded despite a user's resilience to certain external stimuli. The organs and marrow on the other hand...They depend on the brain to feed it instructions and will send out an alarm if something is wrong. For instance...If it begins to experience thermal stress. Water itself boils at about one hundred degrees...or 212 if you go by the Fahrenheit standard . The spy froze up what the hell was this guy talking about? The answer soon became apparent when he felt his body heat begin to rise what the hell was going on? At this Ricendithas continued The funny thing about water...It can take on a surprising amount of heat for even the littlest bit of it it's why cooking pasta or steaming vegetables is such a pain. But once that capacity is exceeded, it vaporizes. And as I'm sure you know, the human body is a closed system for the most part. So...What'll likely happen first is that you'll sweat. A natural response to cool the body down however, the heat will then spread deeper, boiling the water inside your muscle tissue. And finally, your bones will crack and splinter as the marrow begins to boil over. Have you ever felt a bone fracture like that before? Seen one? It's a nasty process one can only imagine how much that will hurt. But I suppose you'll tell me soon enough, won't you? I might not be able to find you...But that doesn't mean I can't hurt you .
