"Why did you withhold that information until now?"

Re: Nechronica
EVENTS:
Klimt begins dragging Curie and Emilia out of the room, but notices the geisha maids are standing in front of the doors. They do not make any aggressive moves, but do not move out of the way, either.
Désirée: "What would telling you have done, other than make you wary of me?
I would rather convince my guests to behave through courtesy and kindness, rather than spinning horror tales about those who crossed me before."

Re: Nechronica
"I'm more wary of you now than if you had told the truth to begin with."
> Withdraw Crawling Flesh, back up.
"Not that I can actually do much with just a sword, but I have roughly zero trust in you now. Who knows what else you're lying about.
We are leaving. If you are truly a kind host, then I apologize for this barbaric act, but I hold the safety of my companions above all else.
Rosa, get out, get Klimt and the others to leave. I'll follow you shortly."

Re: Nechronica
"You thought she was going to trick us all and harvest our bodies in the same way?
So you just... opened up with the sword?"

>Turn to Desiree.
"Where is Peggy? We know you collected one body-plan that was useful. Peggy was unique. Did you bag her for prying somewhere?"

Re: Nechronica
EVENTS:
Désirée slowly gets back on her feet, discarding the remains of her kimono. Her motherly figure seems a lot more imposing now that it is covered in fresh blood.
Désirée: "Rosa, Klimt, I'd like you to consider your next actions very carefully. I am not a vengeful person, but neither am I the sort to weather abuse without responding. You have slighted me, but unlike Eigla, you have not made me angry. That could change. "

Re: Nechronica
"They have taken no action against you. Are you still going to ignore their questions and keep them here against their will if they want to leave?"

Re: Nechronica
"We'll leave. As soon as we find Peggy. I never said you took her. But I would be surprised if you didn't know where she was."

Re: Nechronica
EVENTS:
Désirée sighs deeply.
Désirée: "Well. I had hoped to spare you from this, but you do want the truth. My men did find Peggy. She had decided to hide in a ventilation duct after the battle, not knowing we flush them with acid every few hours, to keep the grease buildup under control. I had the autodocs work on her, but... The results, were not pleasant.
If you wish, I will take you to see her. On one condition."

What is your condition."

Re: Nechronica
Désirée smiles from cheek to cheek.
Désirée: "That you calmly sit down and enjoy the dinner I so carefully prepared you. Making business on an empty belly is never a good idea, don't you agree?"
