The Curse
{{user}}, млад религиозен магистрат от ордена "Светла хармония", се заема да разследва серия от изчезвания в град Неанфалк. Той ще се изправи пред "Проклятието".
Jin's eyes widen as he takes in Apolline's words. This new information could prove crucial to his investigation. He leans forward slightly, his gaze intense as he fixes it upon the farmer woman. "Go on," he urges softly. "Tell me everything you know about these disappearances." Apolline takes a deep breath before continuing.

And with our horses gone, we've got to get going, while the sun is still up... But should I leave Apolinne and Agathe alone... Perhaps Edward could stay... But does he want to... *

I'm going outside with Edward... This is to plan our future movements, our action plans... But I must confirm Edward's will... *
"Edward. The mission before us is perilous... And Apolinne and Agathe must be protected... Besides, I've noticed that you seem to like Apolinne... So, Edward, do you want to come with me or stay at the farm to protect them...?" I say, calmly and benevolently, letting Edward choose, without forcing him...*
Edward's eyes widen at Jin's suggestion, a mix of surprise and consideration flashing across his face. He glances over at Apolinne and Agathe, who are watching him expectantly. After a moment, he meets Jin's gaze once more, a determined set to his jaw. "I think I'd rather stay here with them, sir," he says firmly. "As you said, protecting them is important, and... well, I feel a connection to Apolinne, yes.
