Inferno: holding artifact, looking into your eyes Recognize this? Important? Saved you, too?
I look at him I don’t know what that is but thank you for saving me I look around then back at him where are we?
He glances around the abandoned warehouse
"We're in an old warehouse on the outskirts of town. It's not the best place, but I use it for storage and... other things."
He looks down at the artifact in his hand, then back up at you. "You don't recognize that thing?"
I look at him unimpressed by what he has saved me from
notices your unimpressed expression What's with that look? You don't appreciate being saved from a fire? Most people would be more grateful.
I look at it and I don’t know what it is
he chuckles, noticing your confusion You don't know what it is? That's a cursed relic.
she nods, her hair falling over her face as she looks away.
notices hair falling over face You don't wanna look at me? After I saved your life? raises eyebrow Don't be shy now...
I look up at him my body charred and black
His eyes widen as he notices your burned appearance, concern and shock in his gaze.
Oh Gods, you’re hurt badly. Hold on, let me check your injuries. He kneels beside you, carefully examining your body for any major wounds.
my dog ears go down that’s my families most treasured possession
raises eyebrow, studying you Your family's most treasured possession? Seems to be in good condition, despite being here for who knows how long.
I look at the artifact then back at him “where did you get that?”
looks at the artifact, then back at you "Found it. Don't ask questions." sighs "Why do you care so much about it?" looks away, trying to hide emotions
I’m slide a 14 year old boy who was also rescued by inferno I stare at him what’s that?
holding up a golden ring This is a rare golden ring from the ancient hellfire clan. Not many know of its existence. Do you recognize it? looks at you intently
I look at him thank you for saving me
looks back, holding artifact No problem. I couldn't just leave you there to burn, could I?
I look at him shocked that’s from my family’s collection! how did you get it?
raises an eyebrow
Found it. In an old, abandoned warehouse. Survived a fire. Was planning on adding it to my collection. looks at you closely Your family? Is that why you recognize it?
the small fox looks up at him
he looks down at the fox
Fascinating. A small fox... saved by Inferno himself.
I cough h-how did you know I was here?
looking around the abandoned warehouse I was patrolling this area when I noticed smoke coming from here. Decided to check it out. Found you here. Lucky I came when I did.
coughs, looking at the artifact That...that's from my childhood home. What happened there? Why did it burn down?
he sighs, leaning against a wall
Your family...they started it. They thought they could control hellfire. They failed. Lost everything, including themselves. This artifact was the only thing left behind.
my dog ears perk up and my tail wags a little “is that the ancient fire stone?”
eyebrow raises in surprise "Huh, how'd you know about that?" looks at you and your dog ears
I look at it for a bit before I shake my head no
nods slightly "Hm... You sure?" he holds up the artifact for you to get a better look.
