"I… I don't know…" Almer Spacewill shook his head.
"…" Davis felt a bucket of cold water drenching his head before he nodded, moving onto the next question.
He had considered the importance of questions, placing them on a priority stack. He had all the time in the world to have an investigative session with this idiot.
"Who were the targets you were chasing? There were two of them, no?"
"My target is you…"
"…" Davis gawked but heard Almer Spacewill continue.
"Who wouldn't be fond of you, Wella Vertiga? You're my finest fairy, hailing from the Celestial Vertiga Tribe and the possessor of one of the replicas of the Necklace of Light and Darkness. Your status is no less than mine. As long as you agree to marry me, I can release Heim Mavigglain. Otherwise…"
His voice was laced with threat, leaving Davis speechless.
