Chapitre 75: Quelaag the guilty
After reaching the top of the elevator Reima hops off and looks around, he spots a familiar looking tunnel above him that should have the fire-keeper soul inside, if his memory is correct.
He climbs a couple ladder before coming face to face with 6 dart shooters.. While Reima hates them with a passion he decides to finish this quickly... He teleports to the far side of the room and picks up the fire-keeper soul before teleporting back to the swamp.
"That was easy" he says while examining the humanity warped soul resting in his hand, he stores it away after finding no use for it currently.
Reima decides to loot the area before confronting the sisters, he walks around the swamp killing leeches and fat boulder throwing hollows while picking up a huge amount of varying size and colour titanite pieces.
While he's walking past a pillar is comes across an area that seems distorted... He waves his hand through it and finds nothing unusual, backing up he gets a better picture and remembers this is where Quelana sits... He recalls that you need a powerful Pyromancy flame to actually see her, deciding he'll meet her eventually he leaves and treks back to Solaire.
Solaire "You're back! Are you done hoarding more items you'll never use?" He says sarcastically.
Reima "I don't know what you mean, all of these items are useful... Looks at this butchers... machete? If I ever need to prepare meat then this'll be very useful!" Solaire shakes his head at Reima's apparent pleading and they leave the tunnel towards an area almost completely covered in webs.
They find a cave with many lumps of webs attached the the ceiling... Probably eggs or prey hidden under them?
They continue deeper into the cave and find some not-quite dead hollows with giant egg sacks on their backs, Solaire wants to put them out of their misery but Reima tells him not to.
Reima "They are like this of their own volition, you will understand after this..." He doesn't know exactly how this is going to go down, but he hopes he can try and talk Quelaag down so he can try help her sister...
They approach the Fog-gate, "Try follow my lead Solaire, there is another purpose to what we can achieve here." Solaire nods at his words and they enter the large cavern.
A gentle, almost angelic voice speaks from a hidden part of the area, "More fools who wish to part with their humanity? I thank thee truly." The person is finally revealed when they start heading towards them... A huge mutated spider with flames jutting from it's body, it's hairy and has a large amount of eyes plastered on it's mangled face... Truly an ugly creature, in contrast, a beautiful black haired woman who seems attached from the hip down to the spider. She wields a sword wreathed in chaos flames and smiles as she approaches them.
Quelaag "Two? Now that's a change. Are you both ready to die together?" She giggles despite her morbid sentence.
Solaire "BACK OR I'LL-" he's about to draw his sword from it's sheath but Reima places a hand on it's pommel to stop him.
Reima "Lady Quelaag, we have no wish to fight you." He says sincerely to her.
Quelaag "Oh? That's a shame, because I really want to kill you." She gets closer to them while readying her blade.
Reima "I know why you collect humanity."
Quelaag "Yes, because I'm a monster! Now be quiet while I butcher you!" Guilt flashes on her face as she prepares to strike them down.
Solaire "L-lady, my friend is a seer... Fighting someone who knows the outcome is never a jolly thing!" He tries to reason with her, but Reima's next words freeze Quelaag.
Reima "I wish to help your sister." It's a simple sentence but makes Quelaag stop in her advance, how on earth could he know of her sister? Is he truly a seer as his friend stated?
Reima "If we fight, you will die. I do not wish to kill such an innocent persons only remaining family, I seek to cure her ails."
Quelaag "What could you possibly do to help her? I've been trying for centuries to heal her but to no avail! Magic is completely useless for what afflicts her!"
Reima "That is why I will try another method."
Quelaag weighs the pro's and con's on letting them see her sister and finally relents, if what he's saying is true then perhaps he could actually help her... She won't have to harvest humanity anymore.
Quelaag "Very well, I will lead you to her... But know this, if you hurt her in any way, I will tear you apart."
Reima smiles at her, "I don't doubt that for a second milady."
They follow her up the stairs and they spot the bell of awakening, "Ah, a moment please Milady... We also need to ring this bell."
Quelaag "If you ring it wayward undead will stop trying to reach it... I suppose if you heal my sister it wouldn't matter, ring it..."
Reima pulls the leaver that makes the bell ring, the sound echos more than the church bell and seems to reverberate everything near. Afterwards they continue to follow Quelaag who waves her hand at a wall revealing a bonfire with a egg infested hollow protecting it.
??? "Oh, mistress! You have returned... The fair lady is saddened when you leave her, please spend more time with her Mistress... Oh, guests? Are these new servants?" he struggles to raise his head to looks at the new arrivals.
Quelaag grins "Something like that..."
Eingyi "Ah, we are blessed. I am Eingyi, a humble servant of the fair lady... Please, if you have any humanity give it to her, it seems to ease her suffering..."
Eingyi crawls out of the way so they can look at Quelaag's sister, similar to her sister her lower body is attached to a giant white spider that, by the smell, seems to be rotting. Her human body above it is very pale and has black veins visible on her naked chest. Her hair is completely white and she's slumped over in exhaustion.
She hears them approach and starts speaking... Reima can't make out what she's saying as it seems to be a different language.
Quelaag speaks to her in English which confuses Reima further, "Worry not sister, we'll find a way to stop the pain." she says as she rubs her sister cheek.
Quelaag looks at Reima "Well, you said you could help her?" he nods.
Reima "I'll use some techniques that are not known to this land, may I approach your sister and take a sample of her blood?"
