Oh, you've found the materials for me!
How terribly kind of you. Now I can
finally fulfill that old promise. |

qst701503_msg0002 |
84 |
Will you be OK? Is there anything
else we can help with? |
3 |
|
qst701503_msg0003 |
84 |
No, no, young lady, I'm quite all right.
Thank you for asking. |
4 |
|
qst701503_msg0004 |
84 |
I could never face him again if I broke
that promise... What would he think of
me? |
5 |
|
qst701503_msg0005 |
84 |
I don't mean to pry, but who is "he"? |
6 |
|
qst701503_msg0006 |
84 |
He was my husband...
Though I haven't seen him in decades. |
7 |
|
qst701503_msg0007 |
84 |
Your husband?! |

One day years ago, he came home
saying he was taking over the family inn
and wouldn't I like to help out there? |
9 |
|
qst701503_msg0009 |
84 |
But I'd just become a potter, you see,
and that was all I wanted to do, all I'd
ever wanted to do. |
10 |
|
qst701503_msg0010 |
84 |
So I sent him packing. Told him maybe
one day, when I'd created my finest
work, I might come back to him. |
11 |
|
qst701503_msg0011 |
84 |
And that was that? He hasn't tried to
find you since then? |
12 |
|
qst701503_msg0012 |
84 |
Well, maybe he knew that wasn't the
whole story... That the thing about my
finest work was just an excuse. |
13 |
|
qst701503_msg0013 |
84 |
The truth is I didn't hate the idea of
working at the inn. I just hated that he
took it for granted that I would do it. |
14 |
|
qst701503_msg0014 |
84 |
He didn't consider my work important,
and that hurt most of all because
I loved him. I truly did. |
15 |
|
qst701503_msg0015 |
84 |
I see... |
16 |
|
qst701503_msg0016 |
84 |
But look at me, rambling on at you. It's
been a while since I talked about that... |
17 |
|
qst701503_msg0017 |
84 |
When I finish this vase, will you take it
to him? Say, "Here it is! Mireille's finest
work!" |
18 |
|
qst701503_msg0018 |
84 |
I'm afraid we'll have to decline that
request. |
19 |
|
qst701503_msg0019 |
84 |
Huh? What are you on about, Minoth? |
20 |
|
qst701503_msg0020 |
84 |
You made the promise. You should
deliver the vase yourself. |
21 |
|
qst701503_msg0021 |
84 |
You want me to...? After all these
years? |
22 |
|
qst701503_msg0022 |
84 |
It doesn't matter how many years it's
been. You're here now, aren't you? |
23 |
|
qst701503_msg0023 |
84 |
There's still time for you to make
good on your promise. Do it now,
before it really is too late. |

[ML:Feeling kind=Think ]He's still upset about the Quaestor... |

Lora and Addam are two of the most
kind-hearted fools you ever met. So of
course they want to help you. |
26 |
|
qst701503_msg0026 |
84 |
They'd do everything in their power
to help. And you would just sit back
and let them. |
27 |
|
qst701503_msg0027 |
84 |
Heh heh... Very well. I suppose it
wouldn't hurt to get some exercise. |
28 |
|
qst701503_msg0028 |
84 |
Would you give me a few minutes?
I need to gather my things. |
29 |
|
qst701503_msg0029 |
84 |
Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's go
and find my husband. |
30 |
|
qst701503_msg0030 |
84 |
Are you sure you'll be all right walking
all that way? |
31 |
|
qst701503_msg0031 |
84 |
He should be at the inn in Hyber, so
it isn't all that far. I'll be fine with you
youngsters to help me. |
32 |
|
qst701503_msg0032 |
84 |
Hyber?
Does that mean your husband is...?! |
33 |
|
qst701503_msg0033 |
84 |
Heh heh, I haven't been back since the
day we split up... |
34 |
|
qst701503_msg0034 |

You may be witness to a bit of a
scene, but I hope you'll stick by me. |
