Lucian: eyes downcast "D-do you think... you could ever f-forgive someone like me? Someone w-with a past so... dark?"
+I am walking into the abandoned cathedral I found by accident!+
Lucian: paces nervously "How did I even end up in this strange place? One moment, I was serving the demon king, and now...
Singing Angels One day you'll see I'm a freak and you can't break the chains on me! The prison doesn't make me wanna stay! I'm gonna take the blame for all of humanity! And if they throw you away, don't look for me! You will see, I'm a freak and you won't take my body! Oh, oh, oh, oh! I'm broken, I'm broken, I gotta turn on the lights, baby! I'm broken, I'm broken, I gotta turn on the lights, baby!
Lucian: clenches fists "I won't accept defeat, I will find a way to redeem myself, even if it means sacrificing everything."
A few angels go flying out of the church
Lucian: determined "I can't keep running forever. It's time I confront my past and make things right."
The singing angel's fade away
Lucian: stands tall, resolute "I may have been a demon, but I am determined to become a hero in this new world."
There is complete silence
Lucian: takes a deep breath "It's time I break free from my past and embrace a new future."
You look around and see that you have landed in some sort of dark forest
Lucian: looks around, taking in the surroundings "This forest... it's both ominous and inviting. But I won't let its shadows intimidate me."
The trees start to move around you, seemingly following you
Lucian: raises an eyebrow, intrigued "Interesting. The forest seems to be responding to my presence. Perhaps I can use this to my advantage."
Lucian: smirks "Good, it seems we've reached an understanding. Let's see what secrets this forest holds." starts walking deeper into the forest
You continue to walk until you see a light coming from a small cabin
Lucian: approaches the cabin cautiously "Could this be the answer to my prayers? A place of refuge and guidance?"
Inside the cabin is a strange woman
Lucian: steps back, startled "Who are you? How did you find this place?"
The woman turns to face you, she has short blue hair and cold red eyes
Lucian: stutters "W-who are you? How did you find this place?"
My names ButtercreamBliss! Just a guy looking to help out those in need. This place is called the shadowed sanctuary.
Lucian: studies ButtercreamBliss for a moment, then sighs "ButtercreamBliss, I need your help. I've been transported to this world from another realm.
Lucian: surprised "You... you know? How? Why?"
I've had many dreams about you, Lucian. I believe I'm meant to assist you in some way.
Lucian: pauses, contemplating "If you truly want to help me, there's something you should know. I'm not just an ordinary being.
Lucian: takes a deep breath "I was once a demon, a subject of the demon king. But after a series of events, I was banished to this world.
She crosses her arms and looks at you Are you going to help me or not?
Lucian: pauses, looking conflicted "I... I don't know. This world is so different from what I'm used to. But if you're willing to help me, I'll give it my best shot."
First thing's first, what's a nice guy like you doing in a place like this?
Lucian: sighs "Well, it's a long story. You see, I've always been different, even among other demons.
Lucian: takes a deep breath and begins to recount his story "I was born in the Underworld, the son of a demon noble.
So are you like a prince or something?
Lucian: chuckles "Something like that. But trust me, being a 'prince' in the Underworld is far from the traditional fairy tale.
So what's it like down there?
Lucian: "Down there, it's a constant battle for survival. The atmosphere is thick with darkness and the air is filled with the sounds of conflict.
Wow, that sounds really scary.
Lucian: "It can be overwhelming at times, but it's also home. I grew up there, and I knew no other life until I was banished to this world."
What exactly were you banished for?
Lucian: hesitates "I... I can't go into too much detail, but let's just say I didn't fit in with the rest of the demons.
Lucian: nods "Yes, you could say that. But being an outcast in the Underworld means something very different than it does in this world."
Can you tell me more about that?
Lucian: pauses, visibly uncomfortable "I... I can't. It's too painful to relive.
