I was hiding behind some pillar so I could read my book in peace. When I read what Sol and Nopony had gotten up to I rolled to see if Erumal was close enough to overhear them and got a yes.I can ignore that if anyone wants me to.

I continue to read my book.

You get your tails out of there quickly before anypony can cause you trouble. Mercifully, the guards at the palace gates recognize you from before and allow you in. You are now back in the throne room. The Empress is busy reading through a stack of reports.

If your roll succeeded, I assume you did.

You are also with the Empress, though she is paying you no heed right now.

Mmhmm… love is beautiful is it not? Finally you've made them happy…

A long pause occurs, then the voice continues

How about a little… drama? Love gets boring fast don't you think? And what is more fun than tearing two lovers apart?

She shakes her head.
"Afraid not. No clues at her mansion to be found. I haven't heard anything from Pick Wick in days either. I assume she is undercover somewhere."

"M- Maybe… do you w- want to go s- somewhere?"

No.251624

She chuckles
"She's my Spymaster for a reason. Well two reasons actually. She's very skilled at skulking around and keeping herself hidden from everyone, subterfuge is her biggest talent after all. That and she has a cute butt."

"I suppose I can leave her to rot in the oubliette for a while longer."

A mare hastily bumps into Sol, clearly in a rush and not paying attention to where she was going. The blow knocks her on her back onto the ground. She appears to be wearing Inquisitor attire.

She rubs her head and gets back onto her hooves quickly.
"Sorry for that!"

>>253953
"It's the least I can do."
"IS NOT!"
"IS SO!"
"IS NOT NOT!"
"SHUT UP!"
The two ponies immediately go silent as Lavinia stomps her hoof on the ground.
"I have no time for this! SCRAM! TO YOUR ROOMS!"
They both quickly scurry off out of the room without saying another word.

"Hey… I know you! You're that knight mare! The Equestrian!"
She looks at Zivur as well.
"And you're that necromancer! … the one that is afraid of mares…"
She smiles sheepishly and takes a few steps back.
"Well in that case, I'm just Livia. Leave the inquisitor part."

She rolls her eyes.

She cocks an eyebrow.
"Come come Falkmar, so much to choose from. Something from my personal armory? A bit of land? A couple of cute mares to keep you company? If that's allowed for a paladin, that is. Uh… maybe your own temple?"

>>254005
"Oh, right. That's rude of me, isn't it? I've heard a lot about you and your companions, I work for Lady Pick Wick you see, I'm one of her agents. Not to mention that you ponies have been the hot topic in Tilhoven after you and miss Neith blew up that breeding facility."

"It's kind of hard not to with all the stuff you pon- people have done the last few months!"

She shrugs
"No idea! She's in Trotopolis right now on her own mission. My place is somewhere completely different."
She pats her Inquisitor uniform.

>>254044
"The shrine?"
Lavinia taps a hoof against her chin, thinking this over for a while before nodding.
"Not a bad idea. Heck, we'll tear it down and build a new one! An actual temple! And one for the Sun too!"

"Unofficially, I'm just there to act as the eyes of the Empress."
