*Hach*... And I had sympathy with those arseholes. I was all aboard degenerateafro post from last chapter, but I didn't thought about the possibility Ria portraying them in a better light, as better persons, than they really have been. Excellent move author. Excellent. This is the good shit. I'll increase my rating by +1 just for that.
Looks like they might even have been the ones, that used that paralyzing dart on her. Welp, now it adds up, that they didn't even left her some rations and that broken sword. Give her a sad farewell as a bonus, just in case she'll gets somehow rescued and off you go with a brand new Mithril sword. Bastards. Even going so far and coming back and even calling it a memorial service openly, well knowing what it means and leaving no doubt that they are there for the rest of her equipment...those f*ckers.
They went from fools, whose stupidness led to the death of a party member, to murderers. Time to turn edgy: It's either jail or worse for them or it won't be sufficient. They have to be removed.
