Nocent quietly soaked in the dilapidated antique bathtub.......the tub's waterline was near even with her chin. This chamber far beneath the IronHelm Flats was quite dim. Two thick candles resting by the tub, illuminated the baneful warrior's head which was reclining backwards. It was eerily silent save for the regimented "dripping" sound that persisted in its monotonous song.

Nocent shifted in the water. Her long muscular body was barely contained by the tub's porcelain boundaries. Her strong hand descended beneath the surface and stroked the several chunks of raw limestone which she had placed at the tub's bottom. The inner rage was unspoken now.......Giminicka was in deep thought.
The Anti-Scathachian truly loved to read.........she always had.
Here in a more advanced city like RhyDin, the fools went so far as to print a "newsletter", entitled The Oracle, to inform its miserable citizens about the goings on in the wild urban setting around them. Giminicka's artful masterpieces had been posted in this Oracle several times. It amused her to read their writings......to see profoundly into their panic......and to marvel at their outrageously false explanations.
But today......while lounging in this old, once-grand tub, she did not read about herself.......no. Nocent had taken this copy of The Oracle from a pitiable homeless man last night. Her heavy boot-heel caved his skull in effortlessly. That crisp sound of broken bones coupled with that slick feeling of brain matter being ground against one's person were indescribable.
Killing destitute people was so sorrowfully easy in a putrid city like this. Who truly cared? Besides the Scathachian whores and their asinine little friends playing "the patrol game"..........who really cared?
The new governor, Lady Kitty Helston, promised to be more in touch with the underprivileged and the meek.......laughable. That false pledge will last all of five minutes after she settles into power. Fact was......a city like this loved to forget about its mistakes......its failures. Nocent was doing them all a favor.....though it was not done for them at all.

The melody changed its rhythm a bit.
Inside of this month's paper was a curious little message. Yes, it was in fact a message. As her emerald eyes carefully read over the inane stories and results of a meaningless gubernatorial election, Giminicka stopped to focus on only two small sections.
The first, of course, was the comical obituary of Jewell's fallen lover, Skyler Chamberland......she knew that the little whore must be so overwhelmed with grief......tears lulling her to sleep each night. Ironic....the poor cheerless Ravenlock and her children would be crying so much harder before she was finally through with them.
