[As always, Moro's use of the journal is extremely minimal. She has only one thing to say to any of you, as she is so kind as to warn you all in advance.]

I have returned. All who grievously harm this forest will die.

[Action]

[With that, Moro can be found in the forest, slowly and stiffly walking about to get herself familiar with the forest of Luceti once more. She sniffs at the bark of trees, scratches at some patches of dirt with her claws, and otherwise silently moves. She has no mark of the demon, as many of her victims from over a year ago have... she has nothing amiss about her other than the bleeding of her chest wound, which is simply dripping along the path she is walking.

She has not yet approached the village. All she has done is use her journal to address them, and she is currently carrying the paper book in her mouth.]

[Effie Trinket has been desperately wanting a dog of her own. A guard-dog. A loving, protective dog. A beautiful dog. A dog named "Jason," though she is willing to compromise. A hesitant voice clears its throat and then asks:]

Hello, Madam Creature. My name is Effie Trinket. Is it true that you are excellent at defending...things?

[What an odd question.]

I fulfill my purpose to the fullest of my strength and life.

I see. [This is exactly the sort of dog she needs, really.] Do you ever defend people?

Humans?

[She chuckles, quite darkly. She doesn't recognize your voice. She fought for Luceti several times in the past... but never did she follow and guard one.]

It is most often that I taste human blood to protect the forest from them.

[.....................Nnnnnnnnng that doesn't sound good.]

You are speaking of evil humans, I assume.

[It has been a long time since Effie has allowed herself to use a word like "evil." "Good" and "evil" as moral absolutes are not encouraged in Panem.]

All humans are evil. My purpose is to tear asunder those that bring harm to the forest.

I don't disagree with you. I have seen a great deal of evil in humans.

[And had never had the courage to acknowledge it to herself.]

So, in other words, you aren't interested in a guard job.

[Oh man, you get a laugh out of Moro! It's cruel, that's for certain.]

What could a mere human like you have to offer me, to enlist me in your service?

[This dog-creature is SCARY. But that could be a good thing!] Only in the interest of acting against evil humans!

And what have these humans enacted, that another wretched human is begging the assistance of a god? Why shall I eat them and spare you?

[She doesn't really have an answer for that, except maybe I don't taste very nice.]

I could repay you. I have many talents.

Oh? And what do you have that is of interest to me?
