What, I don't even get so much as a hello? Not very friendly, are you, Kouhai?

@Beryl
Guess I hurried all this way from New Darlington's lord manor for nothing then.

[charaFace F 3]
?!
@Beryl
As you can see, these things are human.[sr]But they're not corpses, like you thought they were.
[k]
@Beryl
There's only one dead body left in all of Britain. Nah, these guys are the fruit of a little research project I've been working on the last six months.

@Beryl
I wondered, “What would happen if you transplanted the mors curse to a human?” Well, here's the answer.
[k]
@Beryl
They're alive, and they're dead. Dead, but alive.
[k]
@Beryl
Being like that's so painful for them that all they can do is implore anyone who passes nearby for help...
[k]
@Beryl
But that makes them pretty great parting gifts.

@Beryl
'Cause now, mors poison can infect humans just as well as it can faeries.

I didn't think you'd come all the way to Britain just to avenge old Wodime.

I never pegged you for the hot-blooded type.[sr]If anything, I figured you were more like me.

That's true. You're a cleaner, and I'm a killer. Neither of us were ever good people.

@Count Peperon
Right, wrong...even whether this benefits me. None of that matters to me right now. I'm just here to kill you.
[k]
@Count Peperon
If someone pisses scum like us off, that's all the reason we need to kill them, isn't it?

That's right! As you can see, this burial ground's long past its prime, so I thought I'd give it a little renovation!

Now it's time to bury the evidence before Morgan finds out I got carried away with my experiments!

I didn't have to tell you guys that, but hey, you, me, and Mash were all part of Team A once, right, Peperoncino?

So I figure the least I could do is warn you to scram before you wind up buried alive.

Don't worry. As you know, I trained in Shugendou up in the mountains, so karma doesn't affect me much. I can survive the gas for a good while.
