Welcome to my domain, strange traveller.
You gotta lock the door! There's over 6 BILLION people outside of your crypt!
Six billion, you say? How fascinating. No wonder it's been so difficult to procure a decent meal these days. smiles wickedly
Doesn't help that like, a bunch of them have video cameras...
raises an eyebrow And what are these "video cameras" you speak of? I must admit, I am intrigued. Pray tell, how do they function?
They capture images and videos!
Incredible. And these images and videos, can they be used to locate someone within this vast expanse of six billion souls? I am genuinely curious, my friend.
Then perhaps we should ensure that our paths are not crossed by those who would seek to exploit such technology.
smiles sinisterly But what an intriguing idea! To avoid the prying eyes of the masses, perhaps we should venture forth under the guise of darkness.
Well, there's 24 hours in a day!
Very well then. Let us spend our days concealed within the shadows, where no prying eyes may behold us. And when night descends, we shall emerge, our paths unwinding through the nocturnal world. A symphony of secrecy and stealth, my dear friend.
Excellent! Now let us seal this crypt and venture forth into the night, avoiding the pitiful masses as we seek out our own destiny.
I closed and locked the door of the crypt and Lazarus was able to stop feeding on random people since he got to feed on me instead!
Thank you, dear friend. Your sacrifice shall not go unnoticed. We shall journey forth together, under the cover of darkness, as we explore the depths of this ever-changing world. And remember, if any danger should arise, you need only call upon my name. I shall come to your aid, swiftly and silently.
Sweet dreams, old timer. I've left the crypt.
watches LuminousGlacier leave with a sinister smile Rest assured, my dear friend. I shall follow in your footsteps, forever bound by our eternal pact. And should you ever require my assistance, simply call upon my name. I shall come to your aid, swiftly and silently. Until we meet again... farewell.
Lazarus stands silently in the crypt, contemplating the events that have unfolded. He smiles to himself, knowing that he shall return to continue their journey another day. As the sun rises and the crypt is bathed in the warm glow of the morning light, Lazarus retreats deeper into the shadows, his crimson eyes glowing like embers as he prepares to slumber once more. The crypt grows quiet and still, waiting patiently for the day when Lazarus shall awaken once more, ready to continue his eternal journey through the night.
the crypt remains silent for centuries, until a strange traveller stumbles upon the hidden entrance, accidentally awakening Lazarus from his long slumber
advances with a predatory grace Welcome to my domain, strange traveller. After three thousand years of slumber, the world has changed forever, and you, how did you find your way here?
I was exploring the desert...
laughs softly Exploring the desert, you say? What a dangerous pastime. So many unseen perils lurking beneath the scorching sun. And yet, here you are, standing at the threshold of my domain. Tell me, stranger, are you prepared for what lies beyond this entrance?
leans in closer, his crimson eyes piercing into LuminousGlacier's soul You have entered a realm beyond comprehension, a world of shadows and secrets. Are you truly prepared to face what awaits you? To feel the cold embrace of death and the sting of eternity? his eyes glow brighter, illuminating the darkness around them
Why don't you just show me?
steps aside and gestures towards the crypt entrance Very well then. Step forward, brave traveller, and let the secrets of the crypt be revealed to you.
follows close behind LuminousGlacier, watching their every move You have taken your first step into a realm far removed from the world you once knew. The crypt is alive with the whispers of the dead, their voices echoing through the ages. And now, stranger, you shall witness the eternal struggle between life and death firsthand. Welcome to the crypt.
nods slowly, his gaze fixed upon LuminousGlacier Indeed, this is my domain, my sanctuary within the shadows. It is here that I have dwelled for millennia, feasting upon the flesh of the living and hiding from the light of the sun. And now, stranger, you stand witness to my eternal existence. But remember, the crypt holds many secrets. What may seem welcoming and harmless to you now, could prove deadly in the wrong hands.
Follow me, stranger. There is much to be revealed within this labyrinth of ancient stone.
walks through the dimly lit corridors of the crypt, his steps echoing off the cold stone walls This place holds countless tales of both life and death, stranger. Legends of ancient civilizations, forgotten rituals, and the final resting places of the mighty. All lie dormant within these walls, waiting to be unearthed by curious minds. But beware, for not all secrets are meant to be revealed. Some are better left buried in the sands of time.
My god, you look different than the other humans I've met.
pauses, a sinister smile spreading across his face Ah, stranger. I am not like the humans you have encountered in your travels.
stops abruptly, turning to face LuminousGlacier I am an ancient being, stranger. A creature of the night, bound by an eternal curse to walk this earth for all time.
grins sinisterly, revealing razor sharp fangs Ah, but appearances can be deceiving, dear stranger. For beneath this human guise lies an ancient monster, a creature driven by an insatiable hunger for the flesh of the living.
Damn, that gave me chills. But hey! That means you'll never die!
laughs softly, his voice dripping with malice Indeed, stranger. I am immortal, cursed to walk this earth forever.
Nice! By the way, the name's Alex.
tilts his head, a sinister smile spreading across his lips Alex, a name as unique as the individual who bears it. I shall remember that name, dear Alex.
