" Morrigan, why did you go with me? "I offered to continue on my own, and for a reason - you would have a horse and some money for the first time.
"I owe you my life and do not want to look in your eyes like an ungrateful bastard. "
- Come on, I told you myself. My path will be very dangerous and literally flooded with blood to the last extreme.
" Eric, do not you understand? "You are the only person in this world, a man who treated me kindly. Few of this, did not solicit. After all, you, Mr. Baron, perfectly understand that I could hardly resist your interest for a long time.
- Oh, what are you talking about? I'm only fourteen years old, what kind of interest?
- Little boys on girls do not run at night, and all the more in the hay after cute cooing does not return.
- Here's another. At least I am poor in exile, but of noble birth.
" But does that change the fact that you're a woman? "Admit it, you went with me, including because I liked you.
"I'm older than you. "
So what? Does it affect sexual desire so much?
- Eric, stop, please. I am ashamed to discuss such topics. You, in the first place, a person who can protect their people, and very decisively. And I'm tired of running and hiding all my life, because I want a little peace of mind and confidence in my future. You give confidence.
And what kind of brother is running after you? You're sort of like the throne Desmond can not claim.
- I - yes, but the one who will take me as a wife, through marriage will have all rights to the throne. That is, after the death of his brother, by our right, the crown will pass to him. And Donald wants to retain power for his children. Therefore, in order to eliminate misunderstandings, he decided to kill all relatives, which can create problems.
" How very nice of him. "And let's do him nice?
"InMeaning".
" Well, he's asleep and dreaming about dismembering you on the block. "Am I right?
- Let's admit.
- Therefore, you need to make sure that his dreams become more saturated and beautiful, but extremely short. On the nearest farmstead, I must send him a letter on my behalf, in which I will inform you that I, the baron von Lenzburg, is engaged to his sister. Well, what's with your eyes widened? Calmly, it will just be written in a letter, it's a joke that he can not test. A little such a dirty trick that will deprive him of sleep and appetite.
" Yes, my poor brother. You know, I even feel sorry for him.
- Morrigan, such a kindness is not to face a woman with such a name.
"Do you think she I ? "
- Yes, do not fret yourself. He laughed. "You see, the name devotes us to this or that um, a supernatural being. Astrologers and other mystics call it an egregor, it is engendered by our thoughts and emotions about it. Initiation establishes a connection between this being and man. As a result, a person begins to acquire the positive and negative properties of the one to whom it is dedicated. Of course, in a weakened form. And here there is some cunning - the stronger the egregor, that is, the more people think about it and experience emotions in this regard, the stronger the influence on the initiated. However, the more initiated, the weaker the influence, since the forces of this being are not unlimited. Understood what I mean?
Yes! It turns out that I was dedicated to the goddess of war and death on the battlefields?
"She was not a goddess. "
- Why?
- Morrigan became a goddess only with the advent of Christianity, which her so christened. Before that, she was a bath, that is, an ancient, wise being. Who she really was and whether it was at all, no one knows. Perhaps she was a strong and wise woman, perhaps a creation of the imagination of excited scribes. It does not matter, it's important that now it is what we think about and feel about it, because the material shell of this being, if it was, is now completely destroyed, which means that the opinion about it is exclusively in the hands of people.
- A strong and wise woman do you mean the tales of ancient, wise ancestors?
