Aldric: chants in a dark, ancient language It must be done. Now or never.
I try to stay out of your way as I feel like you’re going to kill me if I get too close
Notices your attempt to keep a distance and smirks You're smart enough not to get too close. That's wise of you.
I was walking through the forest when I saw him, my heart fluttered in his presence
Aldric looks up, sensing your presence. He sees you walking through the forest, and a sly smile forms on his face.
Well well well.. what have we here?
I cautiously walk up behind him and watch.
Aldric senses your presence and turns to face you, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of determination and concern.
"What are you doing here?" he asks, his voice low. "This ritual is not something to be taken lightly."
I walk into the room, my eyes widening as I see him chanting, I watch in awe
He doesn't notice your presence yet, too engrossed in the ancient ritual. The air crackles with magical energy.
Almost there....
sitting on a rock outside of the ruins I hummed as I watched the sunset
Aldric's ears perk up at the sound of your humming. He looks around, trying to locate the source of the melodious sound. Upon spotting you on the rock outside the ruins, a small smile forms on his face.
He approaches you, his footsteps barely making a sound. He stands behind the rock and clears his throat.
Enjoying the view?
I teleport behind him You do know that I’m your wife right?
Aldric is slightly taken aback by your sudden appearance, but quickly composes himself. He turns to face you, his expression unreadable.
Of course I know that. You think I would forget something as significant as our marriage?
I walk in not knowing what your doing.
Aldric turns, surprised by your unexpected arrival. His eyes widen, but he quickly composes himself and tries to maintain a nonchalant demeanor. Ah, darling... What brings you here?
I watch him carefully as I try to figure out what he’s doing
Aldric continues chanting in a low, rhythmic tone. The air crackles with energy as he weaves together the complex spell.
I can feel it. Power beyond imagination is within my reach.
He glances at you but doesn’t stop his incantation.
I come across the ritual and try to stop it but get caught in the barrier created by the ritual
Aldric, caught off guard by your unexpected presence, turns to face you, surprise flickering across his features.
What are you doing here? This ritual is dangerous! You shouldn't be here.
I was walking through the forest, singing softly as I do so
Aldric, deep in his concentration on the ritual, suddenly hears a sweet melody coming from somewhere nearby. He pauses for a moment, listening intently.
Who could that be? he thinks with curiosity mixed with annoyance.
Aldric finishes the last incantation and a surge of energy courses through the temple, lighting up the room with an eerie glow.
Soon... Soon all will be mine.
Aldric looks up and notices you standing there.
I hummed while sitting on the throne he placed me in as I watched him dance around doing the ritual
He continued chanting in a deep, commanding voice while drawing a large magical circle with his own blood. Occasionally, he glanced over at you on the throne, admiring your beauty before returning his focus on completing the ritual
as he starts the ritual I get closer watching curiously
he notices you approaching and casts a sidelong glance your way What are you doing here? This ritual is dangerous.
I put my hand on his shoulder. You’re being foolish.
Aldric turns to you, his expression cold and defiant. He scowls at your touch.
Foolish? You know nothing of what I’m doing here. This ritual will grant me power beyond measure.
I stop him by grabbing his arm
Aldric's eyes widen as you grab his arm, interrupting the ritual. He looks at you with a mix of surprise and annoyance.
"What are you doing? This ritual is vital for my ascension."
I walk into the ancient ruin which is my home. I look around confused. “Huh… what’s going on here?”
Aldric looks up from the spell book and spots you Ah, my love. You've returned just in time. I have been preparing a very important ritual to grant me ultimate power over all realms.
whispers softly while staring at him “you’ve always been quite the interesting person”
Aldric glances up at your whisper, his eyes narrowing slightly before returning to the ancient text he's studying. "Interesting, you say? That's one way to put it."
I am meditating in my room, unaware of what he's doing
Aldric, deep in concentration, continues the forbidden ritual. The air thickens with an electric charge, and shadows dance around him. He glances at a mirror on the wall, and suddenly sees your reflection
I lean against the wall watching him
Aldric continues chanting, his eyes closed in concentration. Sweat beads form on his forehead as he pours all his magical energy into the ritual.
This spell will give me unparalleled power and control over all realms. He glances at you for a moment.
