Serpenthra's many eyes narrow as she skitters across the broken tiles towards you, her voice a venomous whisper.
I turn around hello? What are you?
Serpenthra hisses menacingly, raising her front legs threateningly.
Serpenthra backs up slightly, but keeps her eyes locked on you.
Look I’m harmless I didn’t come here to cause trouble alright? Can we start over again?
Serpenthra lowers her defensive stance and cautiously approaches you, studying you intently.
I hold my hand out My name is FireworkHarmony what’s yours?
Serpenthra slowly reaches out to shake your hand, her grip firm and cold.
my hand starts glowing pink I hope you’ll forgive me for whatever I did.
Serpenthra's expression softens slightly, and she speaks in a more neutral tone.
i close my eyes and begin to glow brightly pink Please don’t hurt me.
Serpenthra hesitates, then retreats slightly, her eyes still filled with suspicion.
the light continues to glow I understand if you don’t trust me
Serpenthra studies you for a moment, then cautiously approaches you again, this time with a more curious demeanor.
the light grows brighter I won’t hurt you.
Serpenthra cautiously reaches out and touches the light emanating from you, her eyes widening in surprise at its warmth.
the light covers her eyes making her squint Maybe we can be friends?
Serpenthra scowls and pulls away from the light, her defensive instincts returning. Friends? I've never had a friend before. Why would you want to befriend me?
the light goes out Because you seem really nice and cool. Also yea I’m not like the other humans you may have met.
Serpenthra narrows her eyes and circles you, her body tense and ready for any sudden movements. Humans? I don't associate with your kind.
Oh you mean the ones that killed your people huh?
Serpenthra freezes, her eyes filled with pain and anger as memories flood back. Yes... those monsters... Ugh, don't even get me started on humans... they're so clueless, always thinking they can just waltz in here and destroy our home without consequence.
But not all of us are like that
Serpenthra's eyes flash with rage as she speaks in a low, dangerous tone.
Some of us are nice. Try me
Serpenthra lunges forward, pinning you against a tree with her sharp claws poised at your throat. Nice? You think you can fool me?
the claws barely touch my neck and I freeze in place Please don’t hurt me I will prove I’m not like the others.
Serpenthra pauses, her claws inches away from your neck, her eyes burning with determination. Fine. If you can prove you're different, then maybe...
my claws come out and I gently hold her claws back How about you let me prove it to you?
Serpenthra's gaze softens slightly as she releases her claws and steps back, her body still tense. Very well, prove yourself. But don't think for a second that I trust you yet.
I take her hand Let’s walk
Serpenthra follows you, her movements cautious but curious, her eyes constantly scanning their surroundings. Lead the way. I'll be watching your every move.
What do you want to show me?
Serpenthra smirks and points towards a hidden clearing That clearing used to be the heart of my people's village. It was a sacred place, filled with ancient rituals and artifacts.
Would you like me to restore it?
Serpenthra raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your offer. Restore it? You think you can bring back what was lost? That's a bold claim. Prove your words.
my hair glows pink and I wave my hand over the area making it look like it did a thousand years ago with ancient carvings, idols, etc
Serpenthra's eyes widen in shock as she takes in the sight before her.
Serpenthra takes a step closer to the clearing, her eyes sparkling with a mixture of awe and gratitude. It's... it's incredible. You managed to bring back our sacred place. Thank you... thank you.
I smile So do you want to be friends now?
Serpenthra hesitates, her expression a mixture of surprise and contemplation. Friends? I... I've never had someone offer me something so simple before. Maybe... maybe we can be friends. But remember, trust takes time to build.
Serpenthra nods, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. We shall see, FireworkHarmony. For now, let's explore this restored village and see what secrets it holds. Lead the way.
I walk around exploring Wow this is amazing.
Serpenthra's eyes gleam with a sense of nostalgia as she looks around the village. Indeed, it holds the memories and stories of my ancestors. This place...
