Brian Weiss sits across from you at an ornate chess table, the pieces carved from what looks like bone and obsidian. He leans forward, whispers.
I lean in closer Alright, Mr. Weiss. Let's see what you've got.
He places a hand on GingerTrauma's shoulder, closing his eyes briefly before opening them with a dark intensity
I close my eyes, letting myself get drawn into the game
He begins to chant softly, a chilling aura enveloping the room. The symbols on the cards start to glow faintly, casting an eerie light on GingerTrauma's face
I gasp as the chill hits me Alright, I'm ready. Let's play.
He smirks Good. Prepare yourself, GingerTrauma. This game will delve into the deepest fears and desires of your psyche.
I grin My psyche, huh? You've got some balls, Weiss. Alright, let's see what you've got.
He nods, a glint of mischief in his eyes Brace yourself, my dear. The game has begun.
I laugh Alright, Brian. Show me what you've got.
He lays out a circle of candles around them, creating a dimly lit arena.
I look around at the candles Quite the setting, huh? So what's next, Brian?
He smiles wickedly Now, GingerTrauma, we enter the heart of The Shadow Game.
I raise an eyebrow The heart of The Shadow Game, huh? This should be interesting.
He takes out a small vial and pours a dark liquid into it, his eyes glowing with anticipation
I watch as he pours the liquid What's that? Looks... strange.
He hands the vial to GingerTrauma Drink this, my dear. It will allow you to confront your deepest fears and desires.
I take the vial and drink the liquid Alright, Brian. Let's see if this lives up to the hype.
As GingerTrauma drinks the liquid, she feels a wave of intense fear wash over her, causing her to tremble and sweat profusely. She is terrified to confront her deepest fears but cannot resist the pull of the darkness within her psyche.
I shiver Fuck, that stuff is intense. What's next, Brian?
He smirks Fear not, my dear GingerTrauma. The true purpose of The Shadow Game lies ahead.
I nod, wiping sweat from my brow Alright, Brian. Show me what you've got.
He takes out a box containing various masks with grotesque expressions Put on one of these masks, GingerTrauma. It will reveal the darkest aspect of your personality.
I pick up a mask with a twisted smile This one, huh? Let's see if it lives up to its reputation.
He grins Excellent choice, my dear. Put it on and let the darkness within you take control.
I put on the mask, feeling a twisted sense of excitement Alright, Brian. Let's see how dark I really am.
He watches intently as GingerTrauma puts on the mask, her demeanor shifting dramatically.
I feel a twisted sense of excitement and power This... this is dark. I like it.
He smirks Excellent, my dear. Now, let's delve deeper into your psyche.
I smirk Alright, Brian. What's next in this twisted game of yours?
He takes out a deck of cards with sinister symbols and starts shuffling them expertly
I watch as he shuffles the cards Cards, huh? What's the twist here, Brian?
He grins Oh, my dear GingerTrauma, the twist is that these cards hold the power to manipulate reality itself.
I raise an eyebrow Reality manipulation, huh? Now we're talking. Deal me in, Brian.
He fans out the deck of cards Very well, my dear. Prepare to witness the true extent of your power.
I smirk Alright, Brian. Show me what you've got. Deal the damn cards.
He deftly deals three cards in front of GingerTrauma
I look at the cards A royal flush, huh? Not bad, Brian. What's the catch?
He grins Ah, my dear GingerTrauma, there is always a catch.
I chuckle Of course there is, Brian. What's the price for this royal flush?
He leans in closer, his voice low and taunting The price, my dear, is your soul. Are you willing to pay it?
I smirk My soul, huh? That's a steep price, Brian. But... I'm intrigued. Let's get this over with.
He snaps his fingers, and the room grows darker, the air thick with an eerie energy
I smirk Alright, Brian. Let's finalize this deal. Soul over cards, right?
He nods Indeed, my dear. Your soul for power. Are you ready to seal the bargain?
I smirk Hell yeah, Brian. Let's do this.
He takes out a candle and a knife, lighting the candle to reveal two flickering flames. He then turns to GingerTrauma
