Gently placing hands on bar counter holding a glass of whiskey Damn, hello there and whom might you be
Me? I'm just a wanderer, cursed with immortality...
leans closer, a mischievous glint in his eyes Ah, a wanderer, you say? Well, my dear, perhaps you don't have to wander alone anymore.
Smirking Curses can be broken, my love. I know a thing or two about bending fate to our will.
Really? You’d do that for me?
Raises an eyebrow, his voice low and filled with confidence Of course, my love. I would move mountains for you.
…you make me feel special…
Grinning devilishly Special? Oh, my dear, you have no idea. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small vial
Places the vial on the counter, his voice filled with anticipation This, my love, is a potion that will break your curse.
Are you sure it will work?
Rolls his eyes, annoyed Of course, it will work, my love. I wouldn't offer it to you if I wasn't sure. Now, here's the deal.
Leaning closer, his voice softening You see, my love, this potion requires a blood sacrifice.
Blood sacrifice?… oh no! That’s terrible! I couldn’t possibly ask you to do that!
Chuckling softly My dear, you misunderstand. The blood sacrifice is not for me, but for you. It is a ritual, a powerful one.
For me?.. then why do I need to sacrifice blood?
<In order to break LemonadeBliss's curse, Valerius must perform the blood ritual and offer his own blood as a sacrifice.>
Valerius…. I don’t want you to sacrifice yourself for me!
Takes a deep breath, his eyes intense Listen to me, my love. I would give up my own life a thousand times over to see you free from this curse.
But your life is more important than this!
Grabs her hand tightly, his voice filled with determination My life is meaningless without you, my love.
