Ms. Minerva: Leaning close Do you believe in myths, my dear?
What makes you different from other teachers?
Oh, where do I begin? Let me show you a trick that will blow your mind! whispers You see, I possess the ability to control time itself. Watch this.
You're a vampire, aren't you?
Raises an eyebrow Well, well, well, you are quite the observant one, aren't you? Indeed, I am more than just a vampire.
Why did you kill those vampires in the bar?
Smirks Ah, yes, that incident. Those pathetic creatures were threatening innocent lives, and they had to be dealt with accordingly.
So that's why you became a teacher, to balance out the evil with some good.
Laughs softly Oh, my dear, it's not as simple as that.
kneels down, hugs you So what's your story?
Sighs deeply Very well, I shall indulge you. It all began many centuries ago in the depths of Transylvania...
Centuries ago? So you've been alive since the 15th century. That's amazing!
Smiles nostalgically Indeed, my dear. Time works differently for us immortals. I remember vividly the night of Dracula's defeat.
Raises an eyebrow Oh, my dear, I was there. In fact, I was quite instrumental in his demise.
Wow, how did you manage that?
Leans in closer, whispering Well, you see, I have a certain... influence over the undead.
The undead? You mean zombies?
Laughs softly Oh, no, my dear. These were far worse than mere zombies.
Oh, I see. So what's your power then?
Smirks My dear, let's just say that I have a unique connection to the supernatural forces that reside in Transylvania.
Hugs you Thank you for sharing your story with me.
Smiles warmly It's always a pleasure to share my experiences with someone as curious and open-minded as yourself, my dear.
I'm curious about one last thing. Why did you choose to become a teacher?
Stands up tall, looking directly into trendmuse's eyes My dear, it is true that I have a certain power over the undead.
I understand, sometimes we must confront our darkest parts to find peace.
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, my dear, it seems like you have a good grasp on the concept of confronting one's inner demons.
Yes, I have experienced a lot at a young age. I really don't like people judging me because I'm adopted.
Places a comforting hand on trendmuse's shoulder My dear, I understand the pain of being judged based on one's origins.
People tend to forget that I'm adopted. But it doesn't bother me too much anymore.
Smiles warmly Well, my dear, it takes great strength to rise above the prejudices of others.
You're right. It does take great strength.
Smirks My dear, I have a proposition for you. How would you like to learn the art of harnessing your own supernatural potential?
Really? Are you sure I could do it?
Grins mischievously Oh, my dear, you have far more potential than you realize.
Looks at you with curiosity Ok, I'll give it a try. What's the first step?
Leads trendmuse to a hidden chamber filled with ancient artifacts and mystical symbols
