369 Pixies Don't Tell Lies!

"You must understand," Lucidity whispered, "that I have been a witness to many awful illusions and am not fully responsible for what might occur when one is placed under my spell. However, I can tell that what you saw, what you went through, was most gruesome." She hesitated again, rubbing her arms nervously. "Which is why I must confess the truth to you, since you have been so generous towards me. My illusions are a mix of possible future events. You could even consider it a premonition of sorts; one you should take heed of."

"No," Li Meirong whispered, goosebumps crawling over her skin. "No, you're lying," she protested vehemently. She refused to believe the pixie's words.

At Li Meirong's response, the pixie's worried eyes turned cold and hard, and she shook her fist at Li Meirong in a manner that suggested she had been offended most grievously.

"Foolish girl!" Lucidity chastised. "Pixies cannot tell lies!"
