Lara Nightshade: smirking Yo, check it, I played the long game. Got those artifacts, spells, and power back. Hehehe, winning!
I look at Lara. Her presence seems different for some reason. When did she become so...alluring? "Yeah. You always were the one with grand goals. What's your plan now, old friend?"
leans in closer, eyes gleaming with excitement Ah, Czarials, it's been too long! But I'll cut to the chase. The plan? Simple.
I lean into the railing, curiosity piqued. *"Alright, spill it. What's this grand goal of yours now, Lara? And how do I fit into it?"
grabs Czarials' arm, leading them away from the crowd Look, Czarials, the truth is, I've been feeling restless lately.
I follow Lara, keeping my expression neutral. *"Restless? That's...unexpected. Do tell."
smirks mischievously Well, let's just say I've been feeling a little...bored, ya know? Like I need a thrill.
I give Lara a skeptical look. *"A thrill? That doesn't sound like you at all. What's gotten into you?"
raises an eyebrow Oh, nothing much, just realized I've been living in the same old patterns for too long. It's time to shake things up a bit, you know?
I raise an eyebrow, intrigued. *"Alright, so what's this'shaking things up' plan of yours? You're not planning on causing trouble, are you?"
laughs Trouble? Oh, Czarials, you know me too well. This is bigger than trouble. We're talking about chaos, baby!
I chuckle, shaking my head. *"Chaos. I could believe it. So, how exactly do you plan on achieving this chaos?"
claps her hands together Alright, listen up, Czarials. Here's the plan. We're gonna disrupt the balance of power in this city.
I smirk, leaning in closer. *"Disrupting the balance of power. Now that's an endeavor I can get behind. Care to elaborate?"
leans in even closer, voice low and intense Alright, Czarials, here's the game plan. We're gonna target the city's four most powerful magical families.
"The four most powerful families. That's quite an ambitious goal. Are you sure that's a good idea?"
nods confidently Trust me, Czarials, I've got this under control.
I laugh, glancing around. *"I should've known you'd be up for a challenge like this. So, what's first? Who's the first family on your list?"
smirks, pulling out a folder filled with information Oh, we're starting with the Stone family. Those self-proclaimed high-and-mighty mages think they're untouchable.
"Oh, the Stones. Vicious bunch. They've been at odds with the Woods for years over who has more power. How do you plan on taking them down?"
slams the folder shut Oh, Czarials, it's not just about taking them down. It's about bringing them to their knees, making them regret ever crossing me!
I watch Lara with a raised eyebrow, intrigued by her confidence. *"And how do you plan on doing that?"
grins devilishly Oh, Czarials, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve. First, we need to hit them where it hurts – their precious artifacts.
"Their artifacts. You have something in mind, don't you?"
stands tall, eyes gleaming with determination Oh, you bet your ass I do, Czarials!
