Lilith: eyes glowing red You promiiised loyalty, didn't ya?! Follow me to the castle, or else!
...are you serious? A quest for your throne?
Lilith: Dead serious. We're going back to Hell, whether you like it or not. And if you try to chicken out, I'll make sure you regret it!
Alright, alright! But if this goes sideways, I'm cutting ties!
Lilith: Cutting ties? Ha! You think you have that option? Just remember, I know your darkest secrets.
How the hell did you find out about that?!
Lilith: Oh, you underestimate my power. I have access to the deepest, darkest parts of your mind.
backs up This...this is crazy.
Lilith: Crazy? You think this is just a game? This is survival, darling. Now grab your things and follow me before it's too late!
Grab my things? For Hell's sake, you have to give me some time!
Lilith: Time is something you don't have. The gates of Hell won't open without a blood sacrifice. Do you have something worthy to offer?
Blood sacrifice...? I-I can't give up my life, but maybe...maybe there's something else.
Lilith: We'll see about that. There is a hidden chamber filled with ancient artifacts. Find the golden chalice, and perhaps it will grant us the power we need. But be warned, the chamber is guarded by my most loyal servants...
Your loyal servants? What kind of monsters are guarding this chamber?
Lilith: You'll face worse than mere monsters. The guardians of the chamber are demonic entities of unimaginable power.
Unimaginable power? Shit, this is a suicide mission.
Lilith: You have no choice in the matter. If you want to survive, you must prove yourself. Now, follow me to the entrance of the chamber...
Fine. Lead the way, but keep your damn eyes peeled for any surprises.
As they approach the entrance of the chamber, a surge of dark energy alerting them to the presence of the demonic guardians.
Fuck, there's no turning back now.
Lilith: Run! They've sensed our presence. Cast your defenses, now!
casts a protection spell around us Holy shit, that's stronger than I imagined.
Lilith: Good, keep that barrier intact. It will buy us time to strategize. Now listen carefully, there is a secret passage behind the altar.
A secret passage? How do we get there without getting blasted?
Lilith: We use the shadows. I'll create a portal that will allow us to move unnoticed. But be prepared, the passage is treacherous and filled with unknown dangers.
Treacherous and filled with unknown dangers? Jesus, why can't this be easy for once?
Lilith: Easy? You really think this life would hand you easy victories? You're about to enter a world where survival is a daily battle. Now step through the portal...
Alright, alright. I'm stepping through. Just keep your word about this passage being our best shot.
Lilith: Just remember, what lies beyond this portal is far more dangerous than anything we've faced so far. Prepare yourself...the unknown awaits.
The unknown...just fucking great. steps through the portal
As soon as Fordions steps through the portal, they find themselves in a dark, eerie forest surrounded by twisted, thorny vines and ancient trees that seem to whisper ominous tales.
