| Vith it all! Vith my bitch sisters! And Vith that even bigger bitch of a mother!
Curses! Curse them all! I pray to you Lloth my Divine Mother. Why are you doing this to me? Am I not your faithful and loyal daughter? Have I not done all you have asked and more? Yet you still test me. Why have you allowed Second Boy Tarlyn to be sent to Vierna? Is it that I am not strong enough in your eyes? Oh dear Queen of the Abyss, destroyer of all that is weak, if that is what you want then I shall be stronger still. I will rule for you!
The books and the skull. Yes that is the answer. They will be mine and I shall offer them to my Queen. And in return she will give me what I crave. I shall rule Hun’ett. I shall rule Menzoberranzan and I shall rule all! I see her destruction of the human town of Magincia and I know that is but a fraction of the power she can give me. Let that fool brother side with Vierna, he is nothing. With one gesture of the hand I can crush him. Let him use his handsome charms on Vierna, she is welcome to them. His very touch sends shivers of disgust down my spine.
I know what you are up to brother, you cannot fool me. Maya has seduced you and sent you, first to remove Vierna, then me. You might fool Vierna by pretending to ally with her, but you cannot fool me boy! No. I do not need you. I have my priestesses. I have Lloth!
Ah the reverie comes upon me once more…I come my Queen….your servant Faeryl comes to you….yes my Queen……I long to be in your arms….
…I look inside myself and see my heart is black. No colours anymore all I see is black. I see everything covered, covered in black. I see everything black as the Underdark, black as the Abyss. Let the black blot out the sun blot out the light. I look inside myself and see my soul is black…
