I did it, again, didn't I? Struck keen, didn't I. Picture it: Helm and Cloak In.. Partiar [sp] stumbles to the latrine. Bends over the bowl - vomits everywhere. All I need to do is drop a brick from behind. He's done.
A most glorious, most keen kill my friend. But it shudders in comparison to my recent escapade. POISON was the key - and it was ON the KEY! The poor creature reached for the key to lock her homestead, secure herself... and sealed her fate.
We talking poison, are we? Myt last one was cooking a stew. Smelled bloody lush, too. Plenty of meat (lamb, I think) - reckon it was for a big celebration. Enough to feed a family - maybe even a whole street. It was missing only one ingredient, to my estimation. Had it in his cupboards, too, right there. Lye. Plenty of lye. Oh - how they gurgled, my friend. A wonderful chorus.
