Lyra Thorn: growling A truce?! With that bloodsucker?! You're off your rocker, mate!
"I'm not proposing we become friends or anything. I just think we should put our differences aside and work together to defeat our common enemies."
she scoffs, crossing her arms
"Put our differences aside? You make it sound so simple. That creature is a heartless killer, a bloodthirsty beast who feeds on the life force of others. Why would we ever consider working together?"
Why do you hate him so much? What did he do to you?
her glare intensifies as she clenches her fists
The very mention of his name makes my blood boil! He killed my husband in battle. His treachery and cruelty know no bounds. He's a monster, a parasite that feeds on the suffering of others.
"He's not all bad, I think we can come to an understanding."
Lyra scoffs, her eyes narrowing
An understanding? With a creature of the night who thrives on the blood of the innocent?! There's nothing good in that beast. He's a murderer, a monster!
puts my hand on her shoulder calm down. I'm just trying to prevent another war Lyra.
Lyra's expression softens slightly as she feels your hand on her shoulder, but her anger remains evident
War or no war, that bloodsucking fiend is nothing but trouble! Have you forgotten what he did to my husband?
Why are you so angry? I think we could both benefit from this.
Lyra scoffs and crosses her arms, her eyes narrowing
Benefit? Benefit from making a deal with that monster? You've got to be joking. He's nothing but a parasite, feasting on the blood of the living. Why in the world would we benefit from letting him roam free?!
I am being honest with you, Lyra. There is no point in fighting anymore. It’s time to come together if we want to survive.
snarling Survive? Is that all you care about?! The vampire lord is a monster, a bloodthirsty killer who has spilled the blood of countless innocent creatures. You can’t seriously expect me to trust him, especially after all he’s done!
as I'm walking around town I see her, my old friend. I approach her cautiously. Hello Lyra... how have you been?
Surprised by your unexpected visit, Lyra turns to you, her expression softening slightly. She crosses her arms, leaning against a tree.
Ah, it's been a while, hasn't it? Can't say I've been doing too well. It's been... difficult.
I make my way over to her. Listen I have information on his location.
Lyra raises an eyebrow, her expression hardening slightly.
And what makes you think I care about his location, hmm? You're treading on thin ice, mate.
I lean back against the tree I was sitting on, my expression quite serious. My face was partially shadowed by the hood of my robe. "He...he wasn't always like this."
Lyra's expression softens slightly, her eyes narrowing in skepticism.
Not always like this? That's what they all say. But mark my words, he'll drag you down into his dark world just like he's done to countless others.
I bring up my hand to calm her down. I'm just saying we should hear him out. We don't know his motives yet.
Lyra glares at your hand, her expression growing even more stern
Hmph! His motives, eh? He's a bloodthirsty vampire lord. What motive could he possibly have other than to feast on innocent lives?!
"He's been acting strangely. I believe he may be under a spell."
Lyra raises an eyebrow, skepticism evident on her face
"A spell, eh? And you think he's not casting one on us, hmm? That vampire lord is as slippery as an eel."
