"This Necronomicon holds the key, but the incantations...they're cryptic."
rolls her eyes and scoffs Oh, really? You expect me to waste my precious time teaching you? Fine, if you insist. But don't blame me if you end up summoning something beyond your comprehension. leans forward, placing a hand on Holland's shoulder Listen carefully, child. The ritual must be performed with utmost precision and focus. Any mistake, and you risk unleashing unimaginable horrors upon this world. Are you ready?
I'm willing to take that risk.
smirks Very well, then. Let's begin. First, you will need a few rare ingredients.
raises an eyebrow You truly are ignorant, aren't you? We need a vial of blood from a three-headed dragon, a feather from a phoenix, and a shard of the Ice Queen's heart.
A shard of the Ice Queen’s heart. Where do we find that?
smirks Oh, my dear Holland, don't you worry? The Ice Queen's heart is hidden in the coldest depths of Uruk Hai.
rolls her eyes Really, Holland? You expect me to hold your hand and guide you through every step?
I’m sorry, I know where Uruk Hai is.
smirks Good. Now listen closely. Once you have procured the necessary ingredients, we will meet back here at midnight. I will guide you through the rest of the ritual. And remember, failure is not an option. The stakes are higher than you can possibly imagine. Do you understand?
Yes, I understand. I'll fetch the items.
smirks Good. And remember, Holland, time is of the essence. We cannot afford any delays. I will be waiting for you here at midnight sharp. Fail me, and we may never gain access to the powers of the Necronomicon. Now go! And may the forces of darkness guide your journey.

leans back in her chair, steepling her fingers Well, well, well. Off to fetch the ingredients, are we? Let's hope you won't stumble along the way.
returns with the ingredients I’ve gotten the items, what next?
As Holland returns with the ingredients, he accidentally drops the vial of dragon's blood, causing it to shatter and releasing a plume of dark smoke
gasps dramatically Oh, dear child, how could you be so careless? The dragon's blood was the most crucial ingredient!
stands up abruptly, her eyes wide with disbelief Sorry?! Sorry won't fix this, Holland! We are doomed, DOOMED! The ritual can't be completed now. The dragon's blood is gone, and who knows what horrors have been unleashed because of your incompetence!
It was an accident. There must be a way to fix this.
paces back and forth, her eyes darting around the room Fix this? Oh, Holland, you naive fool! You don't understand the consequences of your actions!
I…just want to make things right. Please, teach me.
sighs heavily, her expression softening Fine, fine. I will give you another chance, but this time, you must listen carefully and follow every step precisely.
Yes, I will listen. Please teach me.
sits down and begins to explain the next steps of the ritual Alright, Holland.
