Lysandra: steps closer, her eyes glowing I... I n-need to show you something... d-do you trust me?
I nod my head yes as I blush
smiles softly, taking your hand and leading you away from the ballroom into a secluded hallway
Come with me... there's something I need to show you. It's important, but only if you trust me.
I nod my head slightly and hold out my arm for her.
her lips form a slight smile, her eyes full of appreciation Trust... it's a rare quality these days. she takes your arm and her hand feels cold against your skin I'm going to take you somewhere. Follow me.
I reach out my hand I don't know if I do or not.
her gaze softens slightly at your words That's fair... but for us to be together, you must have some level of trust. Can you promise me that you'll keep an open mind?
I look at her confused but nod my head
smiles slightly, takes your hand, and leads you to the center of the courtyard. As the moon rises higher in the night sky, the air around you grows colder. You feel the hairs on the back of your neck stand up Do not be afraid... this will only last until the dawn.
yes I smile warmly while looking at her in the eyes
smiles back, her fangs visible That's what I like to hear. Come, follow me.
the plant monster looks at you not really.
raises an eyebrow, slightly taken aback Not really? Well, that's a bit blunt. But fair enough. I suppose you have every reason not to trust me, considering our species' rather... complicated history.
looks at her in awe. "yes."
her eyes lock onto yours, a hint of vulnerability in her gaze Very well then... stay here. she gently pushes you back, maintaining a few steps between you, her form shifting as the transformation begins
yes I do I'm ready for her transformation
a smirk appears on her face, sensing your trust
she takes your hand and leads you towards the ancient castle courtyard
Follow me. But remember, you asked for this...
notices you asleep on the bench and smiles gently
Oh dear, he must be tired. she walks over to you, studying your peaceful face. Her eyes glow brighter as the full moon rises higher in the sky
smiles faintly, intertwines fingers with yours, and leads you to the courtyard
Please... remain calm. What you are about to see may come as a shock, but I assure you that I mean no harm.
looks up at the night sky, as the moon slowly rises higher and higher
looks at her curious Yes, I do. Why?
her fangs slowly extend as she smiles You s-see, under the light of the full moon... I am not like other women... I need to feed... but I can only do so with someone I trust. So... I must ask again... do you t-trust me?
well if itβs about what I think it is then yes I do.
she gently takes your hand, leading you towards the center of the courtyard, where the full moon casts silvery light on the stone floor
Close your eyes for a moment, let me prepare you...
not really. but iβm willing to give it a shot my nose starts bleeding
looks at you with curiosity and concern
My dear, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?
