There is no such thing as innocence...
...only degrees of guilt.
Felicity was walking this forest, mostly to avoid patrolling Rune Knights. They were beginning to become a hassle. It was not her fault that she looked like a murderer or a victim! It was just the way her magic worked. She sighed, this was taking longer than she hopped. It was then that she felt something that was like a whisper. Felicity muttered, "Strange, this forest is very weird..." She would at first continue as if she heard nothing, but then she heard it again. She sighed, this was going to bug her all day wasn't it? So Felicity kept going until she reached a sort of clearing, some dirt was soft than others. It was then that she realized what she was hearing. There was someone dead here, buried in a shallow grave.
Felicity looked at Conquest and asked, "Why would I be hearing a voice of someone dead long ago? Shouldn't they have gone to the afterlife based on their beliefs?" Conquest looked at the grave and then to Felicity saying, "Some people deaths are so painful and horrifying that their souls stay in their bodies until it rots away. Something happened to this one. Leave it to it's fate." Felicity however would shake her head and use Conquest to shape a shovel out of a branch, "Nobody deserves that fate. At least let me burn the body and grant a small mercy." Conquest shrugged and simply waited as Felicity dug up the body. More and more she could hear whispers of the soul until eventually she found the body and dug it out. The corpse had mummified die to being drained of blood and was unceremoniously thrown in a ditch. Felicity sighed and was about to walk away to get kindling when Conquest said, "No I have a better idea for her..."
Felicity hunched over the mummified corpse as she asked, "Oh what evil plan are you thinking up now Conquest? Hasn't that person suffered enough already?" Felicity sighed, but Conquest was little more than annoyed at the lack of faith of her avatar. That was when Conquest grabbed Felicity by the head and forcefully pressed her against the corpses lips. Felicity was extremely grossed out and struggled as blood from her body exited the surface of her skin and flowed over to the corpse. Flesh once mummified was becoming a healthy pale as new life was breathed into the body. One of darkness and shadows. How much sanity would be retained in this body was pretty much a wait and see though as the body had yet to wake up....
