Wilson gave the Evil Eye to Vol, but that was a mistake as the floating orb of idiocy ate the expression without dismay. It would almost swear the Divinity operated expressly to annoy it. Running wildly through the Dark Deeps was like stirring sediment in a calm lake. Vol’s actions would introduce several annoying problems that need to be solved. There would be variables that would have to be accounted for to provide the maximum benefit.
It didn’t like the Divines. They were pale shadows of the Creators, bright lights cast like shadowed reflections of their elders. Every Divine could cease existing, and not a single System would cry for it. However, they were valuable creatures too. After a quick check of the data logs, it was clear Vol had been making waves in the Prison Plane. Nothing so blatant as physical entering, but enough to be suspicious.
“This silver wand, who made it?” Wilson said with a calm demeanor. Any professional pit digger would have rung alarm bells at its expression.
“Oh! Oh! It was someone called the Silver Witch. I heard she’s gorgeous, at the same level as my sister.” Vol said, the floating ball of light practically vibrating in glee.
“Would you like me to get you an introduction?” Wilson said nonchalantly. It was preparing the shovel now, and the poor floating light had no clue.
Vol stopped moving before his tone suddenly sounded suspicious, “Who are you, and what have you done with the real System, Wilson?”
“Can’t I help my good friend out once in a while?” Wilson said without any change in expression.
“The last time you said something like that, we had to fight a Tentacle of Cthulhu!” Vol said with a panicked waver as if expecting the Old One to rip a hole in reality someplace nearby.
“That was a miscalculation caused by the Deeps. I’ve explained that countless times.” Wilson replied with a narrow-eyed gaze.
“True, true,” Vol said, sounding more upbeat.
“So, do you want an introduction?” Wilson said, rubbing their hands with an evil expression at the floating orb of light for a short time.
“Sure!” Vol said. “What do I need to do?”
“Ah, well. I’ll need to check with Silver Witch. She’s a paranoid one, so a contract will probably be involved.” Wilson said while a fraction of their attention communicated with the woman in question.
“A contract?” Vol asked curiously.
“For privacy, you understand. She’s a very private woman.” Wilson stated with a recently learned poker expression.
“That sounds reasonable. I know I wouldn’t want someone following me around all the time.” Vol replied with a shuddering flicker.
“Right. Right. I’ll get one to you, Soon™ no worry.” Wilson said with a practically demonic look in their eyes.
“So, about that issue with the Dark Deeps?” Vol said.
“I’ll handle it personally,” Wilson said as his fingers danced across the Numbers flying past altering variables. There was no need to attend this personally. That’s what Quests and Bounties were for, after all.
