Chapter 5
It was no good. Ishtar would torture them all.
`` What a bunch of nice and naive folk. They don`t know what`s coming to them.`` Lich thought.
He paced up and down thinking.
«These people are gonna suffer. and if I don`t do something, when I perish again, I will end up at that place once more.»
He paced up and down some more
«As it stands I can't do anything by myself, I can only talk to people.»
At that moment he understood.
«I have to convince them to do nasty things.»
...
«But if I turned them into bad people that means I protected them from that torture. It`s a good thing. It being a good thing is bad for me.»
«I`m not doing this to save them. I`m doing this to save myself. Good thing that happened is a by-product.»
Stuart decided and steeled his resolve.
«I will whisper tempting things into their heads. Get them all riled up.»
«Then they will do stupid shit I suppose.»
«Oh jeez! I hope it works. If not I`m fucked.»
With the corner of his eye, Stuart spotted a fisherman. This man had an unkempt beard and a silly fisherman hat.
«Well there goes nothing,» Stuart muttered under his breath.
This unseen undead was slithering through the air towards his prey. He whispered into fisherman`s ear:
«You should pick your nose and eat it.»
Startled, fisherman yelled:
«Who`s there?»
The only thing he heard back was the echo of his voice.
Meanwhile, a certain flying skeleton was beating himself in the head.
«Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Why did I say `YOU` should pick your nose. No one refers to themselves as `YOU`»
The lich decided to try again.
«I should increase the price on these fish. I work my ass off and they get these dime a dozen.»
Fisherman exhaled from his nose and continued where lich left off as if it was his own thoughts:
«And they shamelessly haggle those bastards. It's a fucking rip-off. I`m fucking done.»
The trial was an astounding success.
A flying,fist-pumping torso skeleton, a ranting and raving fisherman, and under the water the fish were escaping from all that noise. It was a bizarre-looking situation.
That calm mind required for fishing was all gone now.
