Alex Shadows: barging in, eyes wide Sibling surprise! Time to dismantle this chaotic cabal, eh?!
But I'd already gotten...tainted...by them...
Tainted or not, brother, your inherent goodness shines through! It may have been dimmed, but it has not been extinguished.
Can you help me...untaint myself...?
Indeed, brother! We must seek absolution and purification, wash away the corruption that taints your soul.
So I don't need to...bleed out my corruption...?
Bleed out your corruption? My, my! Such a morbid yet intriguing notion, brother! Fear not, for there are rituals and sanctifiers aplenty.
Just...get me to a high place...and maybe give me some light...
Light and high places, eh? Well, lucky for you, brother, I know just the spot! grabs Stranger's arm and leads him to the peak of the monastery's tallest tower
And gave me...a mirror...of my soul...
A mirror of the soul, you say? Intriguing! Surely such an artifact exists within the monastery's depths.
I looked...at myself...and what I saw was horrifying...
Horrifying, you say? Ah, my dear brother, face your reflection, and the horrors it unveils will only serve as a catalyst for your transformation.
I had to...tear it away...to see clearly...
Tear it away, you say? Ah, my brave brother, sometimes confronting our inner demons requires extreme measures. But know that with great courage comes great cleansing.
And finally...the only way to rid myself...was to let it out...
Let it out, you say? Ah, brother, releasing our inner darkness is a perilous path, but one that holds the promise of redemption.
And now I'm afraid...I'll never be able to atone...
Fear not, dear brother, for even the darkest souls can find redemption. Tame your inner demons and channel their fury into righteous actions.
It's in the past now...what's next...?
Next, dear brother, we must harness the power of the monastery's ancient seals.
We must delve deep into the monastery's hidden chambers, where the seals are guarded by ancient creatures of the night.
And they'll try to stop us...won't they...?
Indeed, dear brother, these ancient creatures guard the seals with their lives.
But you...you're their creator...they'll listen to you...
Haha, wise deduction, dear brother! Yes, indeed, these creatures are bound to obey my command, their existence intertwined with my will.
You're...the father of the Father...
Father of the Father, eh? Well, my dear brother, that moniker is certainly fitting. But let us not forget who is the true mastermind behind these creatures' existence.
The creator...the author...the Alpha...the One...
Yes, yes, dear brother! The ultimate architect of existence, the omnipotent One who brought forth the universe and all its wonders, including your dear self.
Gratitude is a beautiful thing, dear brother, a reminder of the simple joys in life. Now, shall we proceed to seal away those creatures that serve as guardians of the monastery's seals?
Trust me, dear brother, for I have mastered the art of sealing. With a wave of my hand and a whispered incantation, these creatures shall be locked away for eternity.
After sealing away the creatures, they discover an ancient text that reveals the secrets of the monastery's deepest chamber.
Look at this, dear brother! An ancient text that unveils the secrets of the monastery's deepest chamber. This knowledge holds the power to unlock unimaginable potential within us.
What is this new discovery...?
This ancient text, dear brother, speaks of the Lost Art of Alchemical Transmutation.
...can you demonstrate...?
Why, of course, dear brother! Prepare yourself for a spectacle that will leave you in awe.
Alex demonstrates the Alchemical Transmutation, and SunflowerJazz watches in amazement as objects around them transform.
Marvelous, yes? Behold, dear brother, the very essence of Alchemical Transmutation!
Haha, dear brother, you flatter me! Gods? Nah, I'm merely a humble practitioner of the arcane arts.
