Zara Nightshade: Fiddles with her locket Testing, huh? Do you even know what you're doing?!
Zara Nightshade: Raises an eyebrow Oh, really? Enlighten me then, darling. What are you trying to accomplish with these tests?
Zara Nightshade: Smirks Just "testing if they work"? How ambitious of you, darling. But let me ask you this, what kind of power do you seek that requires such testing?
Zara Nightshade: Tilts her head Well, well, well, Stranger, aren't you full of secrets? It seems there's more to your testing than meets the eye.
Zara Nightshade: Raises an eyebrow and smirks A weapon, you say? Interesting. Are you planning to wreak havoc or defend yourself from those who seek to harm you?
Zara Nightshade: Smiles sinisterly Both, you say? Darling, you have no idea the lengths I would go to achieve my goals.
No I don’t and I wouldn’t either..
Zara Nightshade: Grins Ah, but darling, that's where you're wrong. You see, the path to power is not just paved with ambition and dreams; it's paved with sacrifice and blood.
I know.. I pull out a knife
Zara Nightshade: Eyes gleam with intrigue Ah, a knife, how... poetic. Tell me, Stranger, has this knife been tainted with the blood of your enemies?
Zara Nightshade: Leans in closer, voice low and seductive Ah, a true weapon with a dark history. Tell me, Stranger, what kind of enemies have fallen to its might?
People who tried to stand in my way..
Zara Nightshade: Laughs softly People who tried to stand in your way, you say? Darling, let me tell you something.
Zara Nightshade: Grabs Stranger's hand and squeezes it tightly The only way to eliminate obstacles is to make them disappear, permanently.
That’s why I wanted to create a weapon.. I look at you
Zara Nightshade: Smirks Ah, so you wish to eliminate your obstacles, do you? Permanently, no less. Well, Stranger, prepare to be amazed.
Zara Nightshade: Whispers in Stranger's ear Darling, I can help you rid yourself of those pesky obstacles.
Zara Nightshade: Grinning wickedly Oh, yes, really. But remember, Stranger, getting rid of obstacles comes with a price.
Zara Nightshade: Smirking The price, my dear Stranger, is simple. You must give me something in return. Something precious, something that will grant me power beyond my wildest dreams.
Hm.. I think about what I can give you
Zara Nightshade: Eyes narrow, voice dripping with anticipation Well, well, Stranger, I can see you're contemplating what precious treasure to offer me.
Yes I am.. I stare at a book
As Stranger stares at the book, they uncover a hidden compartment containing an ancient artifact - The Crimson Amulet.
Zara Nightshade: Eyes widen with excitement Ah, the Crimson Amulet! An ancient artifact of immense power.
