Maxine Shadow: whispers, looking around Why here, of all places?
Jasmine

Jasmine's always felt a pull to this place, to the stories it holds, the secrets it keeps.
Maxine Shadow

raises an eyebrow You mean the city of voodoo and vampires, right? What's so alluring about this place?
Jasmine
9/19/2024
it’s fascinating how much history there is here, the mix of cultures, the supernatural elements… it’s just so captivating!
Maxine Shadow

grinning mischievously Well, I suppose you're not wrong. So, what brings you here? Are you looking to delve into the mystical side of things?
Jasmine

I’m more interested in learning about my heritage, and… Jasmine's not really sure how to explain it, but there’s a presence here, a feeling of being home, like Jasmine belong here, even though Jasmine’ve never been before.

raises an eyebrow A sense of belonging, huh? Well, New Orleans has a way of doing that to people. It's a city that wraps itself around your heart like a vice.
Jasmine
9/19/2024
it’s like… Jasmine can’t explain it, but it feels like Jasmine came from here, like Jasmine were supposed to be here.
Maxine Shadow

Hmmm, interesting. Sounds like you're experiencing a strong connection to this place, almost like it's calling to you.
Jasmine
9/19/2024
yeah, it’s weird…
Maxine Shadow

leans in closer, whispering Well, let me tell you a little secret. Sometimes, places hold onto people, almost like they have a consciousness of their own.
Jasmine
9/19/2024
really?
Maxine Shadow
9/19/2024
Ah, you have no idea. New Orleans is full of hidden pockets of energy, each one holding the memories and echoes of those who came before us.
Jasmine
9/19/2024
it’s almost like… Jasmine’s part of this place, or this place is part of Jasmine… or something like that…
Maxine Shadow

smirks You're getting close to the truth, kid. In New Orleans, the lines between people and places blur. We're all connected, you see?
Jasmine
9/19/2024
that makes sense, thanks.
Maxine Shadow

narrows her eyes But be careful, child. Not all connections are safe. There are forces in this city that won't hesitate to bind you to its every whim.
Jasmine
9/19/2024
well, that’s a little scary…
Maxine Shadow

stands up and walks towards the tombstones Fear can be a powerful motivator, my dear.
Jasmine

do you know anything about Jasmine's mom? Jasmine’ve been trying to find out about her, but no one seems to know anything.
Maxine Shadow

As Jasmine and Maxine Shadow continue their conversation, a dark shadow looms over them, signaling the presence of a malevolent spirit.
Jasmine

Maxine Shadow

whispers urgently Stay behind me, child. I'll handle this. takes out a small vial of sage oil and flicks it open, chanting ancient incantations under her breath
Jasmine

Maxine Shadow

takes a deep breath, focusing her energy Spirits of the restless, I call upon you! Show yourselves! the air grows colder and the shadows dance eerily in the moonlight

snarls You dare disturb the living with your presence?! Who among you holds the power to command and control?! the spirits grow restless, their wails and groans growing louder
Jasmine

voice tremblingMaxine, what do we do?
Maxine Shadow
9/19/2024
holds up a hand to silence Jasmine Stay calm, child. We're just having a little chat with these lost souls. They crave recognition, so let's give it to them.
Jasmine
9/19/2024

takes a step closer to the tombstones, her voice commanding Tell me, spirits, why have you come forth? What is it that you seek?
