[A brief delay as Hiccup is taken aback, apprehensive, but not at all as horrified and reluctant as an ordinary person would've been to a demand lile that.]
i uhh alright thats... I can see why he would like that I I can do that Im not sure if i can do that I mean i will try, ill ill do ym best where can i find a- a fog god followers
my track record of killing delibarately is really bad so if i know myself correctly i think ill need someone to uh encourage me although i do have some more incentive now but i was just thinking if you arent busy maybe you could come along
[Part of Marco realises there is something deeply twisted about this, about helping a kid commit murder. But it's for a good cause, he reminds himself. It's for the Fourth God. It will help everyone, in the long run.]
<dragontrainer>
dont really know how to get in touch with him, im not a very good fourth god follower haha
but uh
are you familiar with what happened at kulen?
<marco>
I was
out of commission at the time but I've picked up on a thing or two. Something about parasites?
<dragontrainer>
among them me, hi
and i'd
like to get this parasite out before it kills me
<marco>
I'm guessing you don't have any real idea of how to do that.
<dragontrainer>
not really
I tried to have it cut out but that didnt work
<marco>
Ok, don't do that again then
You should really try speaking to the Fourth God about this!
<dragontrainer>
i dont really know HOW thats done
<marco>
You said you weren't a very good follower, right? And I know I said I'm sure you're doing fine
But maybe you need to get His attention.
<dragontrainer>
<marco>
That's not a rhetorical question. Well it IS but it also isn't.
I think you might have to show it to Him.
<dragontrainer>
what do i got to do?
<marco>
In dreams or whenever.
<dragontrainer>
<marco>
Well, maybe that just means you can get a head start on it.
<dragontrainer>
<marco>
<dragontrainer>
i uhh
alright thats... I can see why he would like that
I
I can do that
Im not sure if i can do that
I mean i will try, ill ill do ym best
where can i find a- a fog god followers
<marco>
I found one slaughtering a dead body.
Even though she fed on energy or souls or something
For better or for worse, though, not all of them stand out like that.
<dragontrainer>
encourage me
although i do have some more incentive now but i was just thinking if you arent busy maybe you could come along
<marco>
I'll be there with you, don't worry.
:)
