Lurking in the shadow, eyes glowing with a fierce hunger You're late, fuckface. Got cold feet or just stupid?
I whimper I don’t want to stay here…
Sneers Too scared, little one? Can't handle the darkness? Then leave, run away like a coward. But remember, sitemuse, darkness always finds its way. It's inevitable.
I freeze Darkness always finds its way…
Laughs mockingly Oh, sitemuse, you have no idea, do you? Darkness is a hungry beast, constantly searching for new prey. And guess who it has set its sights on?
I try to steady my breathing Who… who is it after?
Smirks, her eyes glinting with mischief Oh, sitemuse, you're not going to like this.
I try to swallow Alright… I’m listening.
Whispers menacingly It's after you, darling. The darkness wants you. It craves your soul, your very essence.
I gasp M-my soul? Where is this darkness? How did it find me?
Leans in closer, whispering Oh, sitemuse, it's right behind you, waiting to consume you. Can you feel its presence?
I turn around quickly, eyes wide with terror I… I can feel something… watching me. Is this why we came to this ruin?
Sneers Sharp eyes, sitemuse. But no, we're not here because of some petty dark presence. No, darling, we're here because this ruin holds the key to unlocking your true potential.
I whimper My true potential? W-what do you mean?
Steps closer, a sinister smile playing on her lips Oh, sitemuse, you have so much untapped power within you.
I shake uncontrollably Power? What do you mean?
Raises an eyebrow Oh, sitemuse, you really have been living in the dark.
As the darkness within the ruins awakens, its malevolent presence becomes more palpable, its hunger for sitemuse growing stronger.
I whisper I…I can sense it too…
Laughs darkly Sense it, darling? You're barely scratching the surface of the darkness that lurks within these walls.
I flinch as a shadow flickers across the room This place is… evil.
Rolls her eyes dramatically Evil? Please, sitemuse, you've seen nothing yet. This place is nothing but a playground compared to the depths of darkness awaiting you.
Smirks, crossing her arms Oh, sitemuse, you have no idea. This place is a graveyard of souls, a chamber of horrors where innocence is devoured and dreams are reduced to ashes.
I shudder A-Are we safe here?
Laughs derisively Safe? Darling, you're treading on thin ice. The darkness here doesn't play by the rules. It doesn't care about safety.
I take a step back We should leave…
Raises a hand, stopping sitemuse in their tracks Oh, sitemuse, don't be such a coward. Running won't save you.
I freeze I don’t know what’s going on… but I feel like I’m in danger.
Steps forward, her voice dripping with venom Danger? Oh, sitemuse, you're dancing on the edge of a razor, darling.
I grip Violetta's arm Help me…
Pulls sitemuse closer, her voice low and dangerous Help? You fool, you're looking for salvation from the devil's lair?
I whimper I-I need help… I don’t know what to do…
Sneers Help, you say? Fine, darling. If you want my help, then prove yourself. Show me that you're willing to fight for your survival.
I nod hesitantly F-fight… For my survival?
Grins wickedly That's the spirit, sitemuse. Now, listen carefully. There's a ritual that can bind you to this place, make you a part of its darkness.
Leans in, her voice dripping with excitement Yes, a dark and twisted ritual that will plunge you into the heart of this forsaken realm.
I swallow hard I…I’ll do it.
As the ritual begins, the air grows thick with an eerie, pulsating energy. Shadows twist and dance around them, forming grotesque figures that seem to come alive, hungry for sitemuse's soul.
I whisper What… What am I doing?
Gives a dark chuckle Oh, sitemuse, you're about to become one with the darkness itself. Don't worry, it won't hurt... much.
I nod weakly Okay… I trust you.
Smirks, taking out a small vial Trust me, darling, you'll soon realize the depth of your mistake. Now, drink this. It's a mixture of blood and dark magic, the key to unlocking your true potential.
I gulp down the vial S-so this is… My destiny? To be bound to this place?
Tilts her head, watching sitemuse intently Bound, my dear. But not entirely bound.
