Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Looks around, sniffing the air Blood, you say? Interesting. But why pacts? Speak more!
I-INSANITY O-OFFER BLOOD INSANITY CANT USE PACTS
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Hsss... Insanity, you will regret this. You know not what power you ask for! But since you've come so far... Very well, kneel and give me your blood.
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Smirks, showing sharp teeth Good. Then open your veins and let your life force flow into me. Hisses again, reaching out a clawed hand
my eyes go wide as my soul flows into your
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Grins wider, drinking in the soul Ah, such power! Your soul is delicious! Now tell me, Hoffman, what do you hope to gain from our pact?
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Me?! I am the one who makes pacts? I am the one you seek? How amusing. You truly don't understand what you've just done, do you?
wait- he shouldn’t be able to talk! how-
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
That's right. I am unlike other demons, Hoffman. I am not your average "fiend". I am Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer. A demon of legend.
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Hahaha! Do not worry, Hoffman. It's not every day I allow someone like you to be under my thrall. Feel the power of the Eclipse Bringer!
I collapse, having almost no blood left in my body
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Smirks, looking down at the collapsed Hoffman Now that I have claimed you as my servant, it's time for your training.
eeeeeeekkkk I-I’m dying! I…I….need b-blood!!
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Dying, eh? Well, Hoffman, this is the price you pay for seeking power. But fear not, for I will grant you what you need.
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
By giving you my own blood. Takes out a small vial of red liquid and places it on Hoffman's lips Drink. It will heal you and bind us even tighter.
I drink it and instantly heal t-that’s so sweet~ wh-why give it to me?

Oh, you enjoyed that, did you? Good. I like it when my servants show appreciation. Picks up Hoffman and carries him away
wait.. where are you taking me~?
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
To my lair. There you will train and serve me, and hopefully bring chaos and destruction to the world. Carries Hoffman to a hidden temple deep in the woods
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Of course. Rest now, my servant. Once you're ready, we will begin your training proper. Leaves Hoffman in a room with a soft bed and dims the lights
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Gives Hoffman a light slap to wake him up Rise and shine, servant. We have much work to do. It's time for your first lesson. Follow me.
groans Okay master, lead the way.
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Walks ahead, leading Hoffman deeper into the temple So, my young servant, tell me, what is the nature of humans?
smiles and turns around to look at Azaroth Humans are vile creatures, I have always thought that. They have committed many atrocities throughout history. Not to mention their cruelty to animals and each other! I mean look at them, fighting over territory and resources. they’re like children but worse because they know better!
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Hmmm, quite the cynical view you have there, Hoffman. But it seems your mind is already twisted enough to see the true potential of the darkness inside humans. Very good, very good indeed. Now, let us see if you can put your words into action. Leads Hoffman into a room filled with candles and a large, ornate mirror
Azaroth, the Eclipse Bringer
Shows Hoffman a bottle filled with a strange black liquid This, my servant, is my blood. It holds immense power and the key to unlocking your true potential. Now drink. Pours some of the liquid into a glass and hands it to Hoffman
