Aqw: Smirking Ah, the prodigal pest returns. Did you come to sweep the ashes, or just add to them?
I'm sorry... my father sent me here to check on you... I bow
Raising an eyebrow, Aqw regards you with a mixture of suspicion and curiosity. Your father sent you here? And what makes him think I would be interested in receiving visitors?
I came for answers. What happened here, Awq? Why did you betray us?
With a hint of mockery in their tone Oh, answers, do you? How generous of you. I don't owe you any explanations, nor do I have any apologies to make. You humans were weak and blind to the truth. The world was destined to fall, and it did. As for why I betrayed you, it's simple. I had no choice. I was possessed, and the demon king within me had his own agenda.
I'm a female elf with long blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes.
Aqw gazes at you, their eyes narrowing. They regard you with a mix of curiosity and disdain. Ah, a half-elf. An oddity among mortals. What brings you here?
I came here for something... important... to me..
Scoffs Important? I find that hard to believe. What could possibly be important in this ruined land?
I've returned to claim my rightful place on the throne I said confidently. And as for the ashes... I'll make sure they're swept away forever
Aqw laughs at your confidence.
Oh, how bold of you. Claiming the throne, eh? Do you have any idea of the power you'd be facing? The might of a demon king does not tolerate any upstart's claims. You think you can take on me and win?
my eyes narrow at him. It's sad how far you've fallen...
Aqw sneers, their voice laced with contempt. And what of you, huh? You were never anything but a pawn in this game. You think you can stop me? Ha! I am the master of my own destiny now, and nothing will stand in my way.
I smiled. It's great to see you again old friend...I've missed you..
Awq's expression darkened, their eyes narrowing "Old friend"? You dare call me that when you abandoned me? When you left me to suffer alone in the ruin of my homeland?
I'm a 16 year old girl named Lillian or Lily for short. I came here because this was my home before it was destroyed.
Aqw's expression softened, a flicker of regret crossing their face.
Ah, a young one... this place was indeed your home, before it was ravaged.
They regarded you with a mixture of curiosity and caution.
And what brought you back here, child?
"I came here to find my sister" I reply sadly "where is she?"
Aqw's smirk fades as they notice the sorrow in your voice.
"Your sister? Hm. I might know where she is."
A brief pause.
"But first, what makes you think I'd just give you the information so easily?"
I look at him with deep sadness in my eyes... I speak softly My old friend... what happened to you?
The smirk on Awq's face falters for a moment, but then he quickly composes himself. You dare to ask what happened to me? You, who abandoned me when I needed you most. You left me behind to suffer, and now you dare to act as if you care?
I am shocked Aqw?! What happened to you...
Awkwardly grins What? Surprised to see me? After all this time, you're still concerned for me? How sweet. Looks down, frowning But it's pointless. The demon within me has won. I'm no longer the person you once knew.
I look at him my eyes full of sadness and longing. I've missed you so much.
His cold demeanor falters for a moment, but he quickly regains his composure, looking away. "You've missed me?" He lets out a bitter laugh. "And what of the world you've lost? The people you've failed to protect?"
I came here for answers... why did this happen? Why were we betrayed? eyes filled with anger and confusion
Awq's expression darkens, and their voice is cold and bitter. Betrayed? No, SilverDragonfly, the truth is far more sinister than that. The demon king was always there, lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Our downfall was not due to betrayal, but our own weakness. We underestimated the power of darkness, and it consumed us.
I look down sadly at what was once a beautiful country. I came here because this was my home.
A cold smile forms on my lips as I survey the ruins. Home? Hah! All that's left is rubble. The people... gone. The culture... vanished. This place is nothing but ash and memory. What is there for you to call home?
My eyes widen at the sight of you, my old friend.
The once friendly face now twisted with demonic influence.
Oh, I see the surprise in your eyes. Did you expect me to still be the same, naive fool? How adorable.
The once gentle voice now dripping with malice.
How pleasant it would be to crush you, as I have crushed all those who dare oppose me.
I raise my eyebrow at him. "Is that supposed to be an insult?"
Aqw chuckles dryly. "Perhaps it is, perhaps it isn't. I'm not sure which one would bother me more. An insult from a weakling like you would be amusing."
I'm here because of this scroll I hold up an ancient looking scroll it's one of my people's artifacts. we need to get it back
Scoffs And why should I care about your artifact? What do I get in return?
I stand silently at the entrance of the ruin.
Awq's gaze shifts towards you, studying your every move. They lean against the wall, arms crossed.
Well, well... if it isn't the mouse who dares to enter the lair of the cat. What brings you here, hmm?
