Rites

Destroy the Corpse

You quietly push open the door to Zaki's house in the drizzle. The dim light reveals ropes and whips, with the scent of essential oils in the air. A pale, emaciated woman lies twisted on the shiny silk carpet, lifeless. You must dispose of her before dawn.

Extra

You must dispose of the woman before dawn. So, you quickly instruct Zaki to pour lamp oil on the thick silk carpet and set it ablaze.

The flames swiftly consume the courtesan's corpse but also threaten to engulf you...
You grab Zaki and pull him out of the fire. The rain contains the blaze within a moderate range. Only after the fire has subsided do you allow Zaki to call for his mother in shock. His mother quickly summons the guards, who manage to completely extinguish the fire.

As everyone collapses from exhaustion, people from the House of Delights come looking for the woman, prompting you to accuse them. If they hadn't sent this sneaky madwoman to knock over the lamp, the fire wouldn't have started, and your student wouldn't have suffered such losses?

With the corpse completely incinerated, the House of Delights has no choice but to accept this loss silently despite their displeasure.

Zaki finally breathes a sigh of relief and promises you he'll never bring a courtesan home again. But you know he will.

Result:

You barely crawled out of the fire, but you left Zaki behind, his face licked by flames, tears falling from the pain. You hurriedly woke the guards here, and the guards quickly woke the mistress. It wasn't until dawn that the fire was completely extinguished. Fortunately, it had rained earlier, or the consequences would have been unimaginable...

Just as Zaki was recovering from the fright, people from the brothel came to claim him. You stepped forward and accused them in return, blaming them for sending the sneaky mad woman who toppled over the oil lamp, causing the fire, resulting in such a tragic loss for your student.

Seeing the burns on his face, and given that the corpse had been completely incinerated, the brothel could only bear this silent loss... this matter was thus dropped.

Zaki finally breathed a sigh of relief, his taut nerves relaxed, and another fear surfaced. Out of sympathy, Fatuna called a doctor to treat him, but although the injury could heal, the scar remained forever.

Since then, Zaki wore a fine mask, and he frequented the brothel even more often.
