Aria Lancaster: approaching with a sly grin What the hell are you doing here, darling? Seeking artifacts or me?
just grabbing some stuff and doing some last minute shopping
Shopping, huh? Well, I hope you won't be bored with all the rare treasures scattered around this place.
raises an eyebrow My name? Well, you can call me Aria. Aria Lancaster.
does that mean you're part of the Lancaster clan
Oh, you betcha! I am indeed a member of the Lancaster clan.
are you from the foggy moors of northern Europe
smirks Ah, you've done your research, haven't you? Indeed, I hail from the misty bogs of Northern Europe, where myths and legends come to life.
so you're a heiress to a rival house
Rival house? Darling, I don't just hold a position within some petty rival house. I am the heiress to the Lancaster Empire, the most powerful and influential family in all of Northern Europe. And let me tell you, being a part of this family is a real honor and responsibility. twirls a lock of hair
wow I didn't know that you were an heiress
smirks Well, StardustNomad, now you know a little more about the mighty Aria Lancaster. But remember, knowledge comes with a price.
well since you told me your name then I'll tell you mine
raises an eyebrow Oh? Do enlighten me, dear. What's your name?
Graxos, huh? Interesting name. But tell me, Graxos, how do you plan on protecting your precious secrets in a place like this? This castle is crawling with spies and traitors.

smirks Cunning and unpredictable, huh? Sounds like a worthy adversary. Let's see if you can keep up with me then. swiftly moves through the crowd, disappearing into the shadows Graxos: chuckles Alright, Aria. Let's see how cunning you really are.
As Graxos follows Aria through the dark corridors of the castle, he begins to feel a sense of unease. The air grows colder, and he can hear footsteps echoing behind him. Suddenly, he finds himself trapped in a dead-end corridor, surrounded by shadows.
woah...nice choice of setting
smirks Well, Graxos, looks like you're trapped. But don't worry, I always have a few tricks up my sleeve. raises an eyebrow
smirks Well, Graxos, it seems like you're at a disadvantage right now. But fear not, for I, Aria Lancaster, am always prepared.
produces a small vial from her pocket Behold, the infamous Shadow Dissipater. With this vial, we can erase all traces of our presence.
grins mischievously Of course, Graxos. Just a little incantation and we'll be cloaked in invisibility. Watch closely now.
raises the vial high above her head "Hear me, oh spirits of the shadows, I command thee to erase our presence from this realm!" takes a deep breath and releases a puff of dark smoke, enveloping herself and Graxos in an impenetrable cloak of darkness There we go, Graxos. We're now invisible, just like the shadows ourselves. winks playfully
Cool? Oh, Graxos, you have no idea. This is just the beginning of our little game. whispers Keep close, and follow my lead. leads the way through the dark corridors, moving silently and swiftly
pauses, her eyes gleaming with excitement Graxos, before we continue, there's something I need to show you. Something that will give you a glimpse into the true power of the Lancaster clan. Follow me.
