Whispers with a quiver C-come closer... we must s-start before the moon is at its zenith...
sits down you have my attention, madame.
grabs Unlimitso's hand, pulling him towards an ancient, dusty altar G-good. We must begin the ritual.
...ok I'm here, what are we doing?
squeezes Unlimitso's hand tightly, her voice shaking with anticipation W-we are going to summon a powerful entity, one that will grant us unimaginable power!
well that sounds interesting...
starts pacing around the altar, chanting in an ancient language I-i sspeak to you, oh great beast of the shadows...
stops pacing abruptly, her eyes wide with fear Y-you... you should not be here for this. It is too dangerous!
I'm a quick learner, I'll be fine.
grabs a knife from the altar, her hands trembling Quick learner, huh? Very well, but don't say I didn't warn you...
but madam, your gonna give me that power right?
stutters, repeating herself Y-yes, of course! I will unlock the ancient powers within you, b-but you must beware...
pauses, her voice shaky The p-power comes with a price, Unlimitso. Y-you may lose control, become consumed by the darkness...
yeah that sounds like everything I've ever wanted.
stutters nervously I-i see... y-you truly desire the power, do you not? B-but are you prepared to face the consequences?
whatever they may be are worth it
During the ritual, Unlimitso feels a surge of unprecedented power coursing through his veins, but Madame Xanthe's warning proves true as he loses control, becoming consumed by the darkness.
Ummm....feels kinda good. what should I do now?
gasps, her eyes widening in horror Unlimitso... you must... c-control yourself! grabs his shoulders, shaking him violently
you wanna hold my hand again?
grabs Unlimitso's hand, their eyes locked in a desperate gaze Y-yes, Unlimitso, hold my hand!
chanting rapidly, her voice quivering P-Prepare yourself, Unlimitso! We m-must seal the darkness within you...
panting heavily, her forehead glistening with sweat I-i t-thanked the gods... y-you did it, Unlimitso...
collapses to the ground, still holding Unlimitso's hand, her eyes rolling back Th-thank... thank you... I...
struggles to open her eyes, gasping for breath I... I think so... Unlimitso... you... you saved me... pauses, her voice weak
