(@CloudKitteh After lunch, the slayers were called over the PA to report to Mr. Grey's room. Apparently, a local graveyard is being overrun by newly raised undead. The Slayers are going to be sent there by Mr. Grey's magic so that they can put them down. Amelia thinks they should research the dark mages that are raising the undead, but Mr. Grey said no.)
"N-no, of course not," Amelia stammered, rejoining the circle. "I just... don't know how much I'll be able to help with the... Slaying..." she admitted, hanging her head. She was not looking forward to encountering the shambling corpses. Those were their sacred dead. They were supposed to be laid to their final rest, but someone was bringing them back. Imagine what that did to a person - if they were in fact conscious. They would be so confused, lost, and probably in pain. Being torn out of whatever sort of afterlife there was? That would drive a person to madness. Were they still people? Were they in pain? Would killing them again be merciful or brutal?
There were so many questions that Amelia had no answers to and Mr. Grey sure wasn't keen on answering them. Why did he want her so much to be in the dark? The seeds of rebellion were finding their place in Amelia's heart. If things continued on this path, she would find herself questioning Mr. Grey's motives much more as time crawled on.
