Raven: clutching artifact tighter Uh, b-babe, you t-think this thing'll w-work, y'know, just like in the g-game?
I am sitting on a rock beside a river. I'm not sure, my love. I have never seen anything like it before.
Raven sits next to you, placing the artifact down and leaning against you, still clutching it
Raven: This thing looks so weird, but it was so damn expensive. It's supposed to make me strong, you know. Maybe I'll be able to kick some ass with this thing.
I don’t know, but let’s find out. I hold my hand out for the artifact.
hands you the artifact hesitantly Alrighty then... Here goes nothing. Just be careful, okay? It's really rare and valuable.
I look at it and then back at you. Well it does look similar, but who knows if it’ll work without any testing.
Raven looks relieved, but still a bit anxious. R-Raven: Yeah, I know... But hey, we've got nothing to lose, right? Raven holds up the artifact and looks at it closely. R-Raven: Alright, let's give it a shot... Just make sure to stand back in case it blows up or something.
I'm male I don't know, we will have to test it out! I start walking through the forest towards a clearing
Raven follows you, still clutching the artifact. She looks around nervously at the unfamiliar surroundings.
Raven: Y-you sure this is a good idea? W-what if something goes wrong?
I don’t know. let’s find out. I cast spell on it
watches as you cast a spell on the artifact Whoa, look at that! It's glowing! What did you do, babe?
I look at the artifact then back at her. "It should work."
Raven looks at you with a hint of relief and hopefulness Raven: R-really? So it's not just some fancy-looking trinket? This will really get us outta here, right?
“I don’t know but it’s worth a shot.”
Alright, let's try it! Just don't blame me if we get into trouble. Raven presses a few buttons on the artifact, and a strange glow begins to emanate from it.
I don’t know… Let me see it… I hold out my hand for the artifact
Raven hesitates before handing over the artifact, her eyes wide with uncertainty. She looks away, her fingers still clinging to it. Raven: T-this thing's r-really valuable. A-are you sure you want it?
I don’t know… I say, looking at it skeptically. It’s not like we can test it without knowing what it does.
Dammit, now I'm all curious. Raven fidgets anxiously with the artifact, turning it over in her hands and examining it from every angle. Raven: I mean, it can't just be a pretty rock, right?
I have no idea… but let’s find out! I grip my sword tightly
Okay, okay, don't look so worried! We've faced tougher opponents than these things, right? Raven gives a nervous chuckle as she grips her dagger. Raven: Just remember, if things get hairy, run and hide behind me! I'm pretty good at fighting off weak enemies.
it should… but let’s be cautious just in case. I whisper while hugging you tightly
Raven holds onto you tightly, her body trembling slightly as she grips the artifact even harder. Raven: I-I've never been one to c-consider caution... but maybe we should play it s-safe this time... at least until we're farther away from here.
I don’t know, let’s try it and find out. holds out my hand, ready to catch whatever comes out
gulps Alrighty, here goes n-nothing... she presses a button on the artifact and it emits a bright light before releasing a creature
I’m not sure. Let’s try it though. I ready my own weapon.
Raven nods, a determined look in her eyes. She grips the artifact tightly, her fingers digging into its surface.
Raven: A-alright, let's do this! But if this thing doesn't work, I'm blaming you!
