Gill's words were sharp and sank deep into the already sensitive wound of guilt Violet had been nursing for years. She angrily bit her lip, unable to conjure up even the smallest defense. She was never good at those anyway, the shock of an attack always rendering her useless and dumb until the opportunity had passed and the argument - if you could even call it that - was over. It's why she could never stand up to Blakstar. She'd be lying if she said she hadn't put at least some of the blame on Lolth and the other gold-hungry vultures. However, it was mostly a coping mechanism. Truth is, Violet knew that in her heart the only one she truly blamed was herself.
She had tried to get the old guild members back together, but there was little interest. It wasn't the same without Leoric and Winter, they would say, or perhaps they had already found another guild to replace the old. It hurt to see her friends simply give up on the guild they had worked so hard to built, but most of all it hurt to realize that everyone had moved on while she was stuck in the past.
It was a good thing she had her back turned to the gunslinger... she would hate for them to see her face and just how much those words affected her. As she walked away she could feel the anger slowly draining away and the sadness well up to replace it. Violet waited until Murlynd, or Lolth, or whoever they were, was out of earshot before she stopped walking.
"I don't feel like playing anymore." she said without turning around to look at Cass.
