Romana came to Chloe and told her how Julea had turned against her
during the Review of Faith, claiming she raped Ariel, is into narcotics
(which is true, and not illegal as far as Chloe knows, but apparently it
was raised in the negative), and called Chloe a liar – recanting her
testimonies about the Tenebrae that she told Chloe.
Romana and Chloe decided amongst themselves that they believe Benedictus is
sleeping with Julea, and that Benedictus is a weak leader of the Holy
Order. Chloe asked Romana to drop her subversion of Tobin and will
approach Tobin to seek his aide.
Chloe suggested that, as Julea was Sapiente whilst Tenebrae was a known
mage, she is most definitely a heretic. Romana said that it is possible
that she has enough support within the Knights to see Julea quietly
executed. Chloe knows of the plan, but has agreed to stay out of it and
let Romana do her work. For her part, she has quietly removed her support
of Julea, but intends not to upset the ‘rattlesnake’ so to speak by
confronting her. She believes Julea is treacherous enough that she will
bring about her own downfall… And maybe she already has.

Chloe notes that Julea wears a pewter ring bearing the Cardinal’s seal.

Chloe, once again, is feeling threatened. (I have to admit it OOCly
bugs me because I don’t think she did anything at all to warrant a threat),
but here it is:
Deviah Domnius smiles wryly at Chloe. “I bear no ire to my fellow priests.
I know that truth will always prevail.” He holds out bardiche. “For truth
is far more deadly to sinners.”
Deviah Domnius shows you a damascus bardiche with a leather wrapped
cherrywood shaft. White leather wraps around the cherrywood shaft, which
has been inlaid with rosegold, burnished and varnished. The gold inlay
spells a single word: Truth.
Deviah Domnius smiles enigmatically at Chloe. “Aside, I said I resigned.
Why would I bear any ire towards my replacement?”
Deviah Domnius wiggles his fingers at Chloe. “Dav guide your hand, lady.
I do hope that truth finds you in your persuits.”
Anyway, I figure this is minor. However, out of the RP, Chloe ascertained
the following:
– Deviah appears to blame Romana for his being displaced as Grand
Inquisitor. He claims he resigned, but he was quite challenging to Chloe
and blatantly spoke against Romana’s methods for burning Julea’s foot,
which to Chloe implies speaking against the Grand Inquisitor. She
basically told him that she felt it was inappropriate for a High Inquisitor
to speak thus about the Grand Inquisitor.
– Deviah is a flashy soul with more flair than substance.

Chloe is upset. Everything seems to be going wrong.
Marisa wrote her a letter that truly hurt her feelings about Ariel. She
doesn’t feel she took any advantage of him – she’s absolutely certain that
she was reasonably transparent about why she was leading him to her
bedroom, and he seemed more than willing, right up to the point of dry
humping! And now Lady Damassande is sending her subtle threats? Ariel
clearly can’t keep his mouth shut about indescretions either. Afterall,
they were all masked, so there was no need for anyone, even Chloe, to have
to ‘acknowledge’ who anyone else is.
She’s decided to pretend she has no idea who the Dreaming Prince was as she
doubts it’s likely anyone would question the tailor as to who was who, and
further, whether or not Chloe knew.
Following up on this, the Tenebrae’s sent her another threatening letter,
and it angers and frightens her. What will it take to be rid of this man?
You examine a piece of mail.

My dear. You can have your little party. I will not complicate it.
You are lucky that one we both happen to have an interest in the one
that stayed my hand. And it is because of her that I have no interest
in sharing the bed of a whore. But others in the fold might. I will
advise them of your interest.
No matter. I will stay down in my portion of the city and you in yours.
There is no need for a war between us. Truce.
Shadows be with you,

Don’t get too comfortable. I may still be wanting to take you up on
that offer of your bed. For now my demands are to keep quiet. Let things
play out.

Dearest Chloe,
The Tenebrae -does- listen to his Sapiente.
There will be no murder. There will be a truce.
Jules.
Chloe’s opinion?
Well, she’s relieved:
You examine a piece of mail.

Dearest Jules,
I am so relieved to recieve your letter. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Chloe
But she doesn’t trust it one bit, and will eliminate Tenebrae
the first chance she gets.
