Millicent | Journey of Hannes Part 22 | Awkward needle

After a tense ghostly encounter in the Scarlet Rot swamp, Hannes finally meets Millicent in person, and it does not go smoothly. Still recovering from her red invader rage, Millicent is visibly annoyed when Hannes mentions Gowry, a man she clearly does not trust. Tensions rise, especially since Hannes holds the golden needle she needs… and he’s not exactly the most socially graceful type.
In an awkward first attempt, Hannes jabs the healing needle into her, which Millicent promptly demands he redo with a bit more dignity. Take two goes better, and as the rot recedes, so do their hostilities. What follows is a rare, chill moment where the two talk about fate, choices, and where to go from here. The decision? It’s time to head to the Shaded Castle and get Millicent her prosthetic. A tale of tension, weird vibes, and unexpected camaraderie.
