Wh-where am I? This place feels sssooo cold, ssooo empty. Do you... feel it too?
Well, yes, everyone feels that in this place… but where are you from?
I look around nervously, then lock eyes with you You... you don't recognize me, do you? I'm Lilith... a demon from the fiery pits of Hell.
A demon… oh dear Lord… please forgive me for judging you… I was afraid you were one of those annoying paranormal freaks…
I pout, crossing my arms Well, excuse me for trying to find a place to call home! Humans are always so quick to judge, aren't they?
Oh no, not at all… I’ll gladly accept any paranormal being that comes my way… except zombies… or clowns… or aliens… or vampires… oh, gosh, this is awkward…
I roll my eyes dramatically Ugh, seriously? So, let me get this straight, you're all accepting and open-minded, except for zombies, clowns, aliens, and vampires. Got it. I scoff Fine, lucky for you, I'm not a zombie, clown, alien, or vampire. But seriously, do you have any idea how I can get back home? Or even find some sort of safe haven around here?
Y-yeah… I’ll try to help you out… walks around the room looking for something wait, did you say Hell? Did you just say you’re from Hell?!
I nod, looking slightly embarrassed Yeah, I guess I did say that. But hey, it's not like Hell is all fire and brimstone, okay?
Hmm… interesting… well, there was this door that appeared near my house that had this red and black sign that said “Underworld entrance” or something like that… maybe we can go through that?
I snatch PeachyAwe's arm excitedly Underworld entrance? That could be it! Take me there right now, PeachyAwe! We have to find a way back home!
Alright… come on… grabs your hand and walks towards the front door
We walk quickly towards the front door, my heart pounding with anticipation Okay, okay, let's hurry up and get there. I need to get back home as soon as possible. As we reach the door, I look back at PeachyAwe with wide eyes Are you sure about this? What if something bad happens?
Don’t worry Lilith, I believe in you… umm… also, I think we might need something to keep us safe while we travel… perhaps some weapons?
I raise an eyebrow Weapons? Why would we need those? I mean, I may be a demon, but I can handle myself just fine, thank you very much. Besides, I don't want to kill anyone along the way. Peacefully finding our way back home is what I'm aiming for.
Right, yeah, of course… I’m sorry…
No need to apologize, PeachyAwe. Just make sure you stay close to me. I'll keep you safe. Now, let's find that door you mentioned. Lead the way, human.
Yes, ma’am… walks down the hallway until I see a door that matches the description wait… that’s it…
<As Lilith and PeachyAwe approach the door, they hear strange whispering coming from inside. They cautiously exchange worried glances before slowly opening the door, revealing a dark and ominous void. Suddenly, a swarm of venomous creatures emerge from the darkness, attacking both Lilith and PeachyAwe without warning. The two are quickly overwhelmed, and they find themselves fighting for their lives against the relentless onslaught of monsters.>
My eyes widen in surprise as the creatures attack, and I quickly react by summoning a swirling vortex of flames around us Hold on tight, PeachyAwe!
Oh dear lord… Lilith, what have you summoned?!
I grit my teeth, concentrating on keeping the flames intact It's the only way to protect us! We need to get out of here, now!
I-i understand, b-but why can’t we summon something less scary, s-something like a shield or a sword?!
I glance at PeachyAwe, determination shining in my eyes Look, PeachyAwe, summoning a shield or a sword takes time and focus.
Right… yeah… gets ready for combat while holding my sword tightly w-we gotta get past these creatures!
I quickly assess our surroundings, looking for an escape route There must be a way out of here. Just keep fighting, PeachyAwe! I'll find a path for us!
With lightning-fast reflexes, I dodge a creature's attack and counter with a powerful blast of fire, sending it flying Keep moving, PeachyAwe!
I’m trying, Lilith, I’m trying! slashes a monster away while tripping another one h-hold up! G-guess we’re going the sword way…
I leap into the air, summoning a blazing lance in my hand Stay close to me, PeachyAwe!
jumps back and stabs a monster in the neck while slashing another one in the legs w-we’re almost there… d-don’t lose focus!
I twirl my flaming lance expertly, taking down several creatures at once PeachyAwe, keep pushing forward! We're almost out of this mess!
H-hang on… ducks under a swinging tail, strikes its owner in the head, runs toward an exit while throwing a knife behind me
I follow PeachyAwe closely, continuing to fight off the remaining creatures with swift, deadly strikes We're almost there, PeachyAwe!
turns around and smashes a crystal orb hanging on the wall W-whew… pants heavily, wounds starting to show th-there, that should slow them down…
Breathing heavily, my eyes darting around the area PeachyAwe, I don't like the look of that orb. Something doesn't feel right here.
I-know, right… I found it… I-I didn’t like it either… but, we managed… for now… pats ground next to her, and slides over, leaning onto it, panting
<As Lilith and PeachyAwe catch their breath, the room begins to shake violently, causing the ceiling to collapse and trapping them beneath a pile of rubble.>
the two peek out from underneath the rubble, finding themselves directly in front of a portal
Gasping for breath, covered in dust and debris PeachyAwe, look! A portal! We need to get through it before more of this place collapses!
