Sieq In The Mysterious Town

"Unfortunately yes. Promise you won't forget me." She replied, equally sad to be leaving.

"I don't think I could ever forget you." He said with a smile, but then his expression turned more serious. "I won't forget you. And not just because of the sex, but because you were a good friend to me. Thank you for your help, I can take care of myself from here." He reassured her.

"Thank you. I'll miss you too. May we meet again someday." She said. Suddenly pulling him into a soft and final kiss. When Sieq awoke from the trance it had dropped him into she was gone.

"May we meet again. Until then, godspeed." Sieq wished her under his breath. He took a breath to soften his mood, then stepped into town hall.

The main lobby of city hall consisted of chairs and a few desks where people could file paperwork or make appointments.

He approached the desk for appointments, figuring that was the way to get an audience with the mayor.

The woman at the appointments desk was bent over some paperwork and sucking on a lollipop. "Hello. How can I help you?" She asked politely as he approached.

"May I see the mayor? I wanted to ask them about a ritual used to make some kind of fog that took place in the grand theater." He did his utmost to focus on his quest instead of her lips around the lollipop, but it wasn't easy.

(Basic Attack -roll 34, 17- Success)

His quest turned out to be for not when the sight of the receptionist slowly pulling out the sucker drew his eyes straight to her plump lips. "You're in luck, she's free very soon. Find the mayor's waiting room on the second floor and she'll be with you in a few minutes." She told him.

"Thank you very much." Sieq said, blushing a bit from the sight of her lips, wet from sucking on the lollipop. He controlled himself and headed to the second floor, in search of the waiting room.

He was able to find it, and after a few minutes the door to the mayor's office opened and he was called inside.

He went inside, attempting and failing to straighten his hair as he walked. He hoped the mayor wouldn't be upset with his sudden questions.

Sieq entered the office to find the mayor seated at her desk. She was an achingly beautiful woman, with long luscious legs, curves to die for, plump, pouty lips, and long, smooth, brown hair. "Hello. How can I help you?" She purred.

His heart jumped a bit at the sight of her. She was a treat for the eyes that could contest Isabel or even Henrietta. For a place like this, he supposed it made sense that the sexiest woman was in charge. "I wanted to ask you about the ritual that took place in the theater, the one that would create fog. I want to know the true nature of this town, and I think the fog is a key part of that."

(Basic Attack -roll 38, 48- Success)

"Are you sure you want to spend your time chasing old tragedies when you could be focusing on the present and all the joy it offers." The mayor asked, leaning forward to prop her chest on the desk and puckering her lips suggestively.

Sieq knew he had been doing exactly that for a good portion of the time he had spent in this town. "I love having fun with a beautiful woman as much as any guy, but I do want to figure out the truth. There's always time for pleasure when the work is done." Sieq said, although his voice wavered a little, the sight of her breasts and lips was unbearably tempting.

The mayor stared him down with sultry eyes. And just when he thought his resolve might crack she relented. With a sigh she took a nearby piece of paper and drew a complicated sigil on it. "If you really want to know the truth take this to the fountain in the central square and look up. Then all will be revealed." She told him, sliding the paper across the table.

Sieq was surprised she was so forthcoming, and relieved she gave before he did. "Thank you very much, I appreciate it. Perhaps when I've finished my work, I could return and take part in some of the joy you mentioned. If it would please you, that is." Sieq offered, quoting both his own and the mayor's words. He knew he was tempting fate letting this town entice him any more before he knew the truth, especially when he was so close to it, but the mayor was too attractive for him to flat out deny if he had no reason to.

(Basic Attack -roll 7, 87- Fail)

"You can come back here for that anytime." She told him with a wink, loosening her tight formal top a little.

"I'll visit before I leave town, as thanks for your help. Take care." Sieq told her as he stood up and moved to leave her office and the town hall. He was headed straight for the town center, the truth was dead in his sights.

Sieq headed down the stairs and out into the square in front of city hall.

He didn't stop to smell the Roses, he marched directly to the fountain.

The main square was several blocks away from city hall so he had a bit to walk.

He was no stranger to walking long stretches, but he was a bit impatient at the moment. He sped up, and munched down on the second of the baker's snacks.

As he walked Sieq chowed down on a lightly glazed croissant there was an almost familiar taste to the glaze.
