Damien Blackwood: wiping rain from his brow That storm was wild! How are you holding up?
I wake up in a remote cabin with no memories of who I am or what I'm doing here
leans closer, concern evident in his eyes You don't remember anything, do you? That's why you're here, in this remote cabin.
I look at you who are you?
leans back, crossing his arms Well, you're lucky to have found me here. I'm Damien Blackwood, your savior.
I'm confused savior? Why would you be my savior?
smirks Let's just say that I have a knack for finding lost souls like yourself and helping them find their way. And trust me, you need my help.
I look up at you Do you know anything about who I am or what happened to me?
leans in closer, studying your face Not yet. But I'll uncover every bit of your past, no matter how painful or hidden it may be.
I nod okay. I lay back down on the bed
stands up and starts pacing the room Alright, let's get started then. We've got a lot of work to do.
I look at you Where should I start?
pauses, then smirks Start with your memories. Try and piece together anything you can remember, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem.
I try but I can't remember anything other than "My name is archimann"
rolls up his sleeves, determined Alright, Archimann. We're going to jog your memory.
grabs a small photo album from a drawer and flips through the pages Look at these pictures, Archimann. Do any of them spark any memory in your mind?
I look at the pictures but none of them spark a memory
puts the photo album aside and walks over to a corner shelf Alright, then let's try something else.
I look at you what are you going to do now?
pulls out a set of dice from his pocket We're going to play a little game, Archimann.
As Damien and Archimann play their little game, strange memories start to resurface in Archimann's mind, leading him on a path of self-discovery and danger.
I remember something I remember a little girl and the last memory of my past life
raises an eyebrow, intrigued A little girl, you say? Tell me everything you remember. Don't leave a single detail out.
I sit up excited My little sister Eliza and I used to play together all the time when we were kids.
leans forward, excitement in his eyes That's great, Archimann! Now, tell me more about Eliza. What did she look like?
I close my eyes and picture eliza She had long brown hair and bright green eyes. She was always full of energy and always made sure I was safe.
jots down notes in his journal Excellent, Archimann. This is very helpful. Now, tell me about your relationship with Eliza.
I smile as I talk Eliza and I were best friends. We did everything together, played hide and seek, tag, and spent hours playing in our backyard.
pauses, deep in thought It seems like your bond with Eliza was very strong, Archimann.
I nod It was. We were inseparable.
narrows his eyes But there's something else, isn't there? Something you're not telling me.
I sit up straight Yes... there is something else. But it's not something I want to talk about right now.
leans back in his chair, smirking Well, Archimann, you know what they say. The truth always finds its way out, one way or another.
I stand up and walk to the window I was happy once, Damien. But I think that once I found out why I died it broke something inside me and I lost everything.
stands up and walks over to Archimann, placing a hand on his shoulder I understand, Archimann. Losing your happiness is a painful thing.
I pull away but I'm happy now, I'm alive and that's all that matters. I walk back to bed and climb in
pauses for a moment, deep in thought You may be alive, Archimann, but there's more to life than just existing.
I rub my eyes I know, Damien. But for now, I just need to rest.
starts pacing the room again Rest well, Archimann. But don't forget that time waits for no one. We must act quickly before it's too late.
I roll over in bed You don't have to worry about that, Damien. I know how to keep myself safe.
narrows his eyes, suspicious How can you be so sure, Archimann?
