Hope this helps!
As the poor sap lay with his blood pouring in pulses out of his throat, freshly opened from ear-to-ear, Faith probably thought to herself: "That was too easy, and too much FUN...."
Endorsed. Warm and kind thanks, Jess, and cheers, dear!
Seems Faith is walking a razor's edge here, between what was and what could be.
I would say she is wrong to do what she did if she truly wants to give up her past. When you truly revoke your past, give up an addiction or forswear an evil deity, you must do it without looking back. This was the second time as she also took her robe ... which was another sign of weakness.
Still hope is not lost of course but two fall-backs so close together is not a good sign. Mephala must be laughing and laughing.
But... as you say, she is still questioning whether or not killing this way is correct. And her faith in Akatosh is great... this may just be enough to get her past the DT stage!!
Thanks for your comments and insight hon!
Faith is certainly a sneaky and sly lady, using guile and her special blessing if she is outnumbered.
I guess her special ability is tied with her former service to Mephala? After all Mephala is considered the patron Daedra of secrets, murder and sex by Dunmer so her servants use any means necessary to get close to their victims.
And Faith did save Saadia, for clearly it was she who paid Faith for getting rid of those warriors. Considering Saadia, there are a lot of gaps in her story to consider it truly believable but Faith has made her decision... at least Kematu died happy.. And such way of killing as well as Faith's ability to be irresistible has reminded me of succubus abilities, since as legends tell they can assume any form or at least can be seen as true love or sweetheart by their victims.. Interesting stuff.
And I somehow doubt that Faith new deity would approve of such methods, though it remains to be seen... I look forward to see the continuation and thank you for sharing your wonderful work!
You're spot on about faiths gifts coming from Mephala. The Daedric Prince taught her highest most promising assassins how to use seduction and sex to guarantee an easy kill... and dedicate said kill to Her glory. It's not a skill one soon forgets and Faith (rather Danare) will be permanently "branded" by Mephala. She will always have to fight against the urge to fall back on old ways (in that she IS very much like a succubus), and no, I somehow think Akatosh most definitely would NOT approve of this way of killing!
As Wolfgrimdark said; she's an addict... and the best way for her to come clean is to no longer do it!
I suspect Faith's former mistress must quite pleased to see she can still pull the strings on her puppet....
Loved this new entry to Faith's journal !
Thanks hon!!
Poor bloke never stood a chance, literally caught with his pants down!!
Good one Jess.
