Five Knives

[prettyknives]

[of the "bad guys" she's met so far, these two are the ones who have impressed her the most]

This castle seems to like my world. Someone else from Panem just showed up: a victor named Johanna Mason. I don't know how much you've heard about Panem, but a victor is someone who's won the Hunger Games. She's unpredictable so I would definitely keep an eye on her.

I'm not sure if the castle would ever bring him, but Cato is my district partner. He would be a good ally. Our mentor is a man named Brutus. Enobaria is another victor from my district. Either of them would be helpful for us if they arrive.

Her district specializes in lumber, so I would think she's pretty handy with an axe.

What an interesting choice.

Does she possess the same desire to watch her enemies’ burn like you have?

Hard to tell. I never got the chance to interact with her before now. She called Katniss "Mockingjay", so they may be loosely allied.

A mockingjay is a muttation from my world that is the product of a mockingbird and a jabberjay. The government never intended mockingjays to exist, so calling Katniss by that name means something.

Hmm It might be nothing, but I'm not in the business of making mistakes. So I'll be keeping an eye on her relationship with Katniss.

What else can you tell me about her?

She won her Games by pretending to be weak so the other tributes would ignore her. Then, when the numbers started dwindling she mercilessly killed everyone left.

She's pretty blunt, too. Didn't bother sugar-coating the fact that I'm dead, and she went right out and asked me if I wanted to kill her.

She leaves a fleeting impression on her enemies to make them underestimate her?...I love it.

It's also one of my favourite little party tricks too!

Anyway am I talking to a fellow corpse?

Looks that way. The last thing I remember before I came here was a boy hitting my head. Given his strength, it's not hard to figure out what happened next.

Being killed in battle was always going to be an occupational hazard.

That’s why many of the killers under my employment never really asked for a pension plan.

I know. [it's just frustrating that both Peeta AND Katniss made it out of the arena]

Clove

But such is the beauty of a place like this.

It’s a chance to play again and re-write the ending how you see fit.

True. This time I won't lose.
