Mary: "Oh, it's hardly fair to call my vegetable garden a farm. I make just enough to get by, you see.

As to the Red Wolf... It's the packleader of these woods. I've only seen it from afar, but it's a nasty beast all right. Its skin is flayed up to its neck, making it look rather... Well, red and bloody. It carries some sort of axe around in its paws, too, so I imagine it must be rather intelligent.
If you really intend to cross the forest, I urge you to stay on the path, and only travel by day. I would hate to see you fall victim to it. Unlike someone else, it seems."


Her voice has a bit of venom to it, and her eyes briefly glance over to Peggy's crouched form.

"If you could excuse us for a moment."

> Grab Rosa and Klimt by the shoulders, pull them away in a huddle for a bit.

"What do you think about staying with Mary for a bit? We don't really know much about the world, and the only supplies we have is meat. If we could stay with her and help out with her farm and sheep, maybe we can learn a bit more and make better preparations to.... Do whatever we need to do."

"Peggy might have a heart attack from stress. But I could play with the sheep. I support this idea."

> Turn back to Mary.

"Mary, we... Don't really know our way around yet, to be honest. We'd like to ask if you could, lend us your aid for a bit. Shelter, food. In return, we'll help you tend to the sheep and farm. And..."

> Plant coffin standing up beside me, flick open the door to show the radiohead.

"I was planning to use her for parts anyways. I will give her as payment."

Mary looks at the radiohead for a rather long time.

Mary: "Well. This is, not something I usually do, taking in visitors. I won't say I have a surplus of food, either. However... She IS worth quite a lot.

Hmm. Yes, you seem reasonable enough. Though... Can you vouch for the behaviour of your companions? I'm not sure how comfortable I am bringing a banshee into my house. Not to mention that... Thief."

"I will keep a handle on both. That's on me, if I fail, take my head. Emilia is safe and loyal. Peggy has been disarmed."

"Preferably take theirs instead of Klimt's since they will be the ones acting up. Klimt is my friend."

"If Baghead makes one slip-up at remaining docile, I will ensure her immediate destruction."


> Glare at Baghead.

"This is my promise to Rosa - so long as you remain nonthreatening, I will not harm you.

If you fail to do that.

You.

Are.

Dead."

A thin smile spreads over Mary's face.

Mary: "My, my. I'm glad to see you're so eager, but such violence is hardly necessary. I would never dream of having one of my guests' heads!

How about... We do this, instead?

If any of you cause me trouble, I get to keep the little thief as... Compensation. Does that sound agreeable?"

"You can keep the trouble-causer, or at least take an equivalent payment out of them. It's not right to punish someone for someone else's crimes."
