The Characters
Kat - Young, innocent female mrem. In her first relationship with..
Zith - The object of Kat's affections, also apparantly in love with Kat. Friends with...
Lox - Cassonova extradinaire, who hooked himself and Zith with...
The Whores of Byranth - Ameneko and Andrea

Scene 1 - The Confession
Zith confesses to Kat about a 'swim' he had in the public baths with Lox and the Whores of Byranth.
Kat : 'I didn't think it was anything more than innocent. But the way Zith and Lox kept talking in drow about how to collaborate each other's story made me wary. I knew then, it was not an innocent 'bath' they shared. I calmly asked for the names of the Whores. For I am but an innocent kitten, what do I know of the Whores? Then Zith muttered their names.'
Kat blinks once. But once and leaves the room. She does not wish to hear anymore. Swiftly she searches out the Whores.
Kat : 'Why do I need to kill them? Perhaps to teach them..Definately to teach them. Females have a code, too. I know, I know...but seriously. If I were to let them get away with it...if I were to let them... I do not care. No one touches my mrem and gets away with it. No one..I have to kill them.'

Scene 2 - The Murder of the Whores of Byranth
Like a mrem possessed, Kat walks into the Tavern and asks for Ameneko. Someone actually points her out to Kat.
Kat : 'Like a blunt sword plunged into my stomach, I see with my eyes, Ameneko. A female mrem, nubile and tiger-like. I can see why she would seduce my Zith. I can see them now...in the bath, touching each other, stroking with their tails..argh. DIE!'
Kat murders Ameneko with a single backstab.
Kat : 'I didn't stop to think..I didn't stop to consider. I have Ameneko. Now, I will kill Andrea. Zith and Lox tried to reason with me. But even then, they spoke amongst themselves in drow, thinking I did not understand. The audacity of the Whores! Andrea now stands in front of me, smirking and laughing. What is she doing now? She is giving my Zith a bellyrub, in front of me! In front of the still warm body of her companion Whore!! Die. Andrea. Die..'
Kat murders Andrea with a single backstab.
Kat : 'Suddenly, I feel as if someone has removed a red coloured veil that covered my eyes. Everything seems clearer to me. Everyone seems to be talking in slow motion, I can understand every word. Something moved beside me. What is that? Why is that woman crying? And why is Lox grinning at me like that. Oh Zith..my love, Zith. I am happy I still have you.'
