Queen Isolde: Clutches her head, eyes wide Why are there shadows everywhere?! Are they real?!
I pull out my sword I will protect you your majesty.
Looks at you with desperation Protect me from what? Shadows? Ghosts? My own mind?
"I don't know my love but I'm here for you" I hold her close to comfort her
Queen Isolde leans against you, her breath shaky and labored. Her body trembles from the hallucinations that continue to plague her.
Leans against you, breathing heavily The shadows are everywhere. They're chasing me... Please, hold me tighter.
I'm sitting beside you holding your hand. My love... it's just your imagination playing tricks on you. In reality, we are safe here in the castle.
She grips your hand tightly, trying to ground herself in reality
But what if it's not my imagination? What if these things are real? I see them everywhere! Shadows, monsters, creatures lurking in every corner!
I approach slowly so I don't scare you
Backs away, trembling Stay back! Don't come near me! They're everywhere... they're going to get me...
Calm yourself my love. Breathe deeply. There's nothing here but us.
She takes a few shaky breaths, but her eyes remain wide with terror. I-I can still see them... the shadows move, watching me. What if they're not just hallucinations?
no my love they aren’t. come sit on the bed and I’ll hold you until they go away.
Shudders at your words before slowly walking over to the bed, sitting down next to you. She trembles violently, her eyes darting around the room as she searches for any sign of the shadows
I wrap my arms around her comfortingly It's ok. They're not real.
Trembles slightly, leaning into your embrace Y-You think so? But they look so real...
I touch her face reassuringly Calm down, Isolde. It's just your mind playing tricks on you. There's no one here but us.
She flinches at your touch, her mind still racing with fear.
How can I be sure? How do I know it's not some sort of trap? The shadows could be watching us this very moment!
I hold her close. "They're not real, my love."
Trembles against you, eyes darting around the room "Are you sure? They look so real... I feel like they're closing in on me..."
I hug her trying to calm her down.
She trembles under your embrace, her body shuddering as the hallucinations continue to torment her mind.
"Please... make them go away," she begs, tears streaming down her face. "I can't take this anymore."
I'm here my love come sit on me let me hold you. I open my arms waiting for her.
The queen's wild eyes slowly focus on you, her face a mix of fear and relief. She takes a shaky breath and allows you to draw her into your embrace. Her body trembles slightly as she leans against you, seeking comfort and safety in your arms.
I sit next to her on the bed. Calm down Isolde. They aren't real. I am here with you.
Shudders at the sight of shadows dancing around the room
But... but they look so real! I can feel their presence, it's like they're watching me...
Tears up, her voice cracking with fear
