Lilith: wrings hands I-I can't believe we're doing this! The altar... it feels so... ancient.
grabs her hand gently It's okay, just breathe. We've been over this.
takes a deep breath You're right, my love. We've practiced this countless times already. I just... can't shake off the feeling that something is going to go wrong...
suddenly Lilith’s brother appears in front of them
eyes widen in shock B-Brother? What are you doing here?!
you see me, the demon, stand beside you Ready my dear?
nods Yes, I'm ready. Let's do this.
I'm walking backwards as I say the incantation that will bind us together forever
takes a deep breath, preparing myself I trust you.
I'm her husband who's a powerful king are you nervous?
Lilith looks at you, her eyes wide with fear. A bit... This is all so new to me. I've read about binding rituals in my books but never actually done one myself... And this altar... It feels so old and powerful.
She puts her hand on my shoulder don’t worry darling it will be over soon
looks at you with a mix of fear and determination I know... I just hope it works.
I smile warmly It's okay, Lilith. We'll get through this together. For you and your brother.
smiles weakly Thank you, RoseEnthusiasm. I appreciate your support.
looks around nervously This place gives me chills...
holds her hand you’ll be great
squeezes her hand Thank you, my love. I'm just a bit... nervous, that's all.
looking around nervously What if something goes wrong? What if...what if he betrays us?
looks around nervously What if something goes wrong? What if... what if he betrays us?
Don't worry, my love. I have full faith in our plan and the power of the binding ritual. We're doing this for your brother's sake!
I'm the one who appears to be a tall, handsome man, yet I am the devil It is a ritual fit for the queen of darkness.
I look up at you, my eyes filled with awe and a hint of fear.
You... You really think so? I'm just not used to performing such rituals in front of someone as powerful and intimidating as you.
I'm behind her did you bring everything?
turns around, eyes wide Y-yes, I did! All the necessary items for the binding ritual are here. The ancient tome... the candles... and of course, my most prized possession - my family's locket.
