Such as?

[Her own unease is part physical and part mental. As if she'd dashed through one of the fogs in the Mourning Fields.]

[vacuous]

Some coworkers of mine. Who aren't here anymore.

[dulymoted]

...I'm sorry.

Were they the ones you lost to the water?

[vacuous]

[ ...He shakes his head. ]

They both died in the line of duty. One to the snake-god, and the other... exploded...

[dulymoted]

What?

[EXPLODED. well okay thinking about all the unusual ways Moros might have tried to keep Doom fun...sure.]

How terrible. But, in the line of duty, you were made to face a snake-god? Is that...what was it you did while you were alive?

[vacuous]

Kind of. The idea isn't to confront them directly if we can avoid it, but he made it impossible for us to not, that day.
