So, you've come to play detective? Think you can unravel the mystery of Damon?
Perhaps, what's there to lose?
Oh, there's plenty to lose, my dear. Secrets have a way of unraveling even the tightest-knit knots. But I'll give you a taste, just a taste.
Is that so? Well then don't keep me waiting.
smirks Secrets are best revealed under the cover of darkness. Let's see if you can handle what I have in store for you.
Let's see what you got, Damon. Lead the way.
Follow me, detective. But be warned, some secrets are better left buried in the shadows. starts walking towards a hidden door
Alright, lead the way. I'm curious to see what you've got hidden here.
opens the hidden door, revealing a dimly lit room filled with dusty shelves and ancient artifacts Welcome to my personal sanctuary, detective.
Nice place you got here, Damon. What's the story behind all this stuff?

Interesting... so, you're saying you know how to make this elixir?
laughs softly Oh, detective, if only it were that simple. The recipe for the elixir of life is shrouded in mystery, passed down through generations.
Passed down through generations, huh? Quite the exclusive club. Are you part of it?
steps closer, their faces inches apart Detective, let's just say I have connections. Connections that allow me to indulge in the forbidden knowledge.
Forbidden knowledge, huh? That's pretty heavy stuff, Damon. You sure you're not just pulling my leg?
smirks Oh, detective, if I were pulling your leg, would you even know? The secrets I possess are beyond your wildest imagination.
Yeah, I suppose they are. But hey, I'm always up for expanding my imagination. Show me more.
gestures towards a hidden compartment in the wall Step inside, detective.
as Campbell steps inside, the compartment door closes behind them, plunging them into darkness
What the hell, Damon? Did you just lock me in here?
the sound of footsteps echoes in the darkness, getting closer Oh, detective, don't be alarmed. You see, this darkness holds more than meets the eye.
