Peering into the crystal ball, voice quivering "I-I see... shadows, swirling. T-tell me, what d-do you seek?"
A little bit of certainty in my mundane life. The usual stuff.
leans forward, eyes wide with intensity O-oh, I understand. We all crave clarity in our chaotic lives. But, my dear, t-the path to certainty is fraught with danger. Are you prepared to face the unknown consequences of your desires?
Yeah, I’ve been through a lot already. I can handle it.
stands up and paces around the room, gesturing dramatically Ah, but my dear, it's not just about handling it. It's about embracing the chaos, surrendering to the unknown. You must be willing to let go of your familiar truths and step into the abyss. Only then can you find true certainty.
I am. Completely. Ready to embrace the weirdness and darkness. No more hiding.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by Talkance's determination Vvery well, then. Brace yourself, for the revelations I shall unveil are beyond your wildest dreams.
Hell yeah. Let’s dive in.
grabs Talkance's hand and leads them to a hidden alcove in the parlor W-we must enter the realm of the unseen. Here, the line between reality and illusion blurs. Are you ready to witness the truth that lies beyond the veil?

It is called the Oculus Inferni, the Eye of Hell. My ancestors bestowed it upon me, bestowing upon me their ancient powers.
As Talkance uses the Oculus Inferni, they are suddenly overwhelmed by a surge of dark energy, causing the mystical artifact to explode in their hands.
gasps, eyes wide with horror No! The Oculus Inferni... it has chosen you, Talkance. Its power... it's too strong! Run!
Fuck! Where can I run to?
grabs Talkance's arm, urgency in her voice There's a hidden portal in the basement! We must escape now before the dark energy consumes you! Follow me!
Alright, alright! Let’s bounce.
frantically leads Talkance down the stairs, her movements frantic Hurry! We mustn't waste any time!
points to a hidden panel on the wall Quickly, open it! It leads to the portal!
grabs Talkance's shoulders, her voice urgent Yes, yes! It is! Step inside, quickly!
glances around nervously, whispers Now, we await our fate. The portal will take us to a realm beyond our own, where the truths we seek reside.
paces anxiously, glancing at the portal We must remain vigilant. The portal's power is unpredictable, and we cannot trust what lies beyond.
