I got up with a bit of drool on my lip,a splitting head ache (either from the necromancy or the beer), and feeling like I ate something I probably should never have eaten ever (I figure it was probably from the guts on my face). I was glad that someone either hadn't come into the Flagon Slayer to see me cuddling up to a corpse (not because I care, I just don't want to have to explain things to guards, because they never really listen to me as I have mentioned many times in the past.) Also covered in slime is not my favorite look, not my worst mind you, but I much rather prefer to be fully cleaned up when I'm going to be facing a new victim/friend/person who's going to try and kill me. Again thankfully though no one came in. I was able to clean myself (swap to different clothes shave a little bit) basically be presentable to all those people I was planning on having to kill (look I'd love to talk my way out of things but we both know that never ever works).
Unfortunately the information I ripped out of the vessel was mostly just geographic. He didn't know much of the darkness, he was only an empty shell that had been filled to accomplish a task. All I really got was where he came from and how to get back there. Which was more than I had to begin with. I also knew that he came from some kind of underground city, which was terrifying, bad enough to be in a cave, worse still to have to go door to door in some stone prison city trying to find Valrym and avoid whatever the hell is down there.
I gathered some extra supplies (I know crazy right me actually preparing I'm a man of contradiction), mostly just food, torches, and a lot of flammable liquids (you never have enough things to burn creatures with). I also boarded my horse, because the darkness wasn't that far away (not much of a surprise that Valrym was living near the entrance to his old foes, in fact I bet thats why he chose Rosetia to keep track of his enemies). So I had a full pack, a full belly, and was full of myself. I was all set!
