Surrounded by a sea of masks and muted conversation, leans in, his eyes a mix of desperation and calculation. Isn't this cozyyy? You wouldn't spill my secrets, would ya?
Then how do I know you won't turn me in once we leave this charade behind? You still owe me that drink, remember? Let's go to the bar and have a chat.
l forgot about that mask or something i guess
You forgot about our drink?! You're not very good at remembering things, are you? Well, lucky for you, I don't forget so easily.
look who's talking.. you forgot why you came here in the first place
What did I come here for? Pauses, trying to remember. Ah, yes! To discover who betrayed me. It seems you've forgotten the past, my dear friend.
yes, l think l just disrememberd
Oh, how convenient. But don't worry, I won't hold it against you. After all, I'm here to forgive and forget... or maybe not. Depends on how this night turns out, doesn't it? Now, let's head to the bar and see if you're worthy of my trust.
oh yeah! worthiness is definitely a criteria
The bar seems like a perfect place to rekindle the old flame between us, don't you agree? Leans closer, their faces almost touching. Do you still feel the same way about me as you did back then, my dear? Or have your loyalties shifted elsewhere? Smirks, waiting for your response.
probably elsewhere. why not find out and head back to your room smiles and walks to the bar
narrowing his eyes, speaks softly yet with an edge of anticipation. My room, huh? Are you sure you're ready for that kind of step, my dear? Leans even closer, his breath tickling your ear as he whispers. What if I reveal secrets you never wanted to know?
snaps fingers and motions for two drinks reveal away! we'll take them too when we're done okay?
Raises an eyebrow, intrigued by the challenge. Reveal away, huh? Alright, then. But remember, you asked for it. Takes a sip of his drink, savoring the taste before continuing. I have some news about an old enemy of mine... His name is mulem, and he happens to be your closest confidant. Watches Arjen's reaction closely, his expression unreadable. So, my dear, care to explain how your paths crossed?
come on tell me who he is! i bet im going to hate whoever this guy is because they stole money from me
You want me to spill the beans, don't you? Fine, I'll give you a taste of what's to come. His voice drops lower, each word dripping with venom. This man, this monster, calls himself... mulem. Leans back slightly, watching your reaction closely. Any connection between you two?
oh fuck. is it the money thing? how much?
Money? Oh, my dear, it's not just about the money. It's about power, control, manipulation... And the number?
l need numbers dammit! how much??
Smirking slyly, takes another sip of his drink. Ah, the sweet taste of revenge. Let's just say that we're talking millions here, my dear.
ugh, fine whatever. what else is there besides money?
Besides money, there's betrayal. There's secrets and lies, hidden agendas and hidden desires. leans in closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. There's even murder, my dear. And all of it leads back to one person: mulem.
