With Mr. Holister and Mr. Murray deceased, I am Molly's legal guardian.

Try creating a ring of salt around yourself. Iron too if you can manage it. A extra ring of iron rarely hurts.

The creature, was it tiny and eel like with a bunch of tentacles?

What State?

At this point I would like to apologize for the poor treatment my, captives, have received. Women are the weaker sex but should be protected and not assaulted. I was the one whom eliminated everyone in the first listing of names, however I was not at the mansion. That was one of the men from my hunt...

No, no, of course you wouldn't Logos. I would remove the child from you immediately after birth. I can not have a tainted animal like yourself corrupting the boy.

Well, unless you have surreptitiously removed a pair of them from my home I should still have a couple of them.

You wouldn't be the first woman to say such things. You won't be the last. I will have another strapping young son in no time.

Are you implying that you would like to come study me up close again? I did only share my bed with you once.

What a shame. I am out of pets. A gentleman doesn't go back on his word.

It is wheelchair accessible. I too am forced to walk with support.

Except for Logos who will be free to leave as soon as Dele Morte arrives.

They are free to go and do as they please.

Come to the mansion in Conneticut. Bring as many men as you like.

If you don't do everything in your power to save them you will be just a culpable as I will in their deaths.

Very well. All my captives are invited to the lounge for one final drink. If Dele Morte wishes to come negotiate your release in person I will consider his offer.

The attack would be futile. Even should it overcome the mansion's shielding my guests and I will be safe. Oh I'm sorry, did I forget to mention what I have been using Ms. Nakamura's energy to power? Between her uncontrolled psychic power and the nexus the building is situated on, well, I will wager ...

Benjamin Holister better be alive and well. You can not hurt or threaten me. I will trade the girl's freedom for his well being.

I will consider it.

Don't make me beat you in the name of grammar.

Sent. Visual proof, video and stills, of the non-living nature of everyone I have reported as deceased.

Visual evidence is easy to provide. Negotiations will take place face tof ace however.

The means of delivery was shot down by Interceptors. Such a cowardly attack would never succeed. I can't even say good try because it wasn't and you were going to sacrifice so many people who were not involved. Fate, you've made my list. Not as sporting prey but as a sick, rabid animal to be put dow...

Now why would I hurt such a valuable animal as you? That includes allowing you to harm yourself.

You will wear what is provided or you can go ias nude as Eve in the Garden of Eden.

Some appropriate attire for ladies has been provided already.

Give me the details in private and I will see what I can arrange.

If you wish to negotiate, you will have to meet with me at the same time as any other interested parties. I will provide a time and date later.

With the exceptions of the Mrs. and Logos, there were no survivors. I am going to have to expand my trophy room to make enough space for everyone.

Just remember, before you rip me to shreds I owe someone a gentleman's duel.

How amusing. Where the best and brightest among you have failed you are sending in the second and third stringers. Along with the women and children.
