The Fall Maiden
His logical retort only made her scowl. It made sense, but that didn't change the fact that she felt so used here. He would get so much information from her, whilst she would gain literally nothing, apart from the minor knowledge that demons knew of the uprising, which frankly, she could have figured out anyway. Talking to him was a waste of her time, even if logically she knew it would be better for the whole world to tell him. She knew she was being childish, salty even. Perhaps she had spent too much time amongst mortals.
"Shut it, stop trying to sweet talk me. I'm thinking." She snapped at his blathering. An issue popped into her mind suddenly. If she told him of the lead, then wouldn't he head to the capital too? There was no way they wouldn't get in each others way then. Deciding that to be the only thing she withheld, she told him the other details. "Rumours have been escalating over the years, concerning those that want to overthrow the gods. More and more people are joining them. That's about all I've verified over the years. Happy now?" She spat plainly, before spinning on her heel and heading back to the village. Now she needed to hitch another carriage ride somehow, to get to the capital.
All she hoped was that she'd never see that demon again, or any other demon for that matter. She'd had enough of them for one lifetime.
