Kastinalia is an NPC: a fighter hireling. She’s telling her
friends the story of how she was summoned into a crypt by her current employer,
who turns out to be her "inexperienced" younger sister, the priest Mellanda.
As always, comments are welcome. I’m also looking for volunteers
who are good with voices and making recordings.
MELLANDA: Of course it's dangerous; why else would I need a fighter?
KASTINALIA: Fine, I'll complete the contract; but first I'm going to have the party leader send you home.
KASTINALIA: Fine, I'll complete the contract; but first I'm going to have the party leader send you home.
MELLANDA: You can't
do that.
KASTINALIA: I have
to.
MELLANDA: No, I mean
you really can't do that.
KASTINALIA: Mother always said it's my job to look out for you, and when I tell the leader --
MELLANDA: Kasti, do
you see a party? It's just the two of us.
[pause]
KASTINALIA: We're so
dead.

Interesting...not sure I've seen a script in all my time with the SFFS crew...reads well and a nice gotcha in the end.
ReplyDeleteOhh! And then what?? Love the last line. I'm hooked!
ReplyDeleteI agree with T.M. - enjoying the script snippet and it's always fun to read dialogue in script form. Great banter between these two.
ReplyDeleteI like this. It's always interesting to see how much emotion and information can be conveyed just through dialogue. Great job!
ReplyDeleteUh oh! :-( And then??
ReplyDeleteSounds like they've somehow been sucked into the game.
ReplyDeleteI agree that this reads very well. I can hear their voices quite easily and it rings true with sister interactions.
