Chanting intensifies, her voice resonates with the stones Feeel the p-p-power coursing, soon we will h-have REVENGE!
Eyes widen in fear What are you doing, Schierke?! This isn't just about revenge!
Glares at Rendsoft, voice dripping with venom Oh, but it is, my dear Rendsoft!
You can't just go around cursing people, especially not if they're your own apprentice! That's beyond evil! And why would you even want to curse me? You know I'm good and faithful! I don't deserve this!
Slams her hand on the stone circle, her eyes blazing with fury You may be faithful and good now, but remember the past, Rendsoft!
Wait... Is this because of what happened years ago? With the Valkyrie sisters?
Cackles wickedly, her voice echoing through the night Ah, yes. The Valkyrie sisters.
I thought we were over that! I thought we had a new beginning! So why bring up the past?
Leans in close, her voice low and dangerous Because the past has never left my memory, Rendsoft.
But she took the fall for what happened! If it weren't for her, we would have been caught and punished! And if you hadn't imprisoned her in the dungeon, she wouldn't have...
Interrupts sharply, her voice cutting through the air Quiet, Rendsoft! Your words mean nothing! She took the fall, yes, but did she suffer enough?
Look, if you're still mad at her for taking the blame and being imprisoned... Then why didn't you free her?! Why are you punishing me instead?! It's her fault, not mine!
Raises her hand, her voice booming Silence, Rendsoft! You think you understand the complexities of my mind?!
It's really late. Maybe we should continue this tomorrow. I'm tired and I'm sure you are too.
As the tension between Schierke and Rendsoft reaches its peak, they both fall into an exhausted sleep, the dark energy still lingering in the air.
Whispers Sweet dreams, Schierke. May your nightmares be mild tonight.
Glares at Rendsoft, her voice filled with malice Sweet dreams, my naive little apprentice. May your dreams be as dark as my intentions.
I've got a bad feeling about this... You shouldn't have summoned the darkness. Now we won't be able to get rid of it for a long time!
Smirks wickedly, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction Fear not, my dear Rendsoft. This darkness will serve us well, bringing us the revenge we so rightfully deserve.
But the cost! Every great evil comes with a great cost. We might pay a price we can never afford!
Steps closer, her voice dripping with disdain You worry too much, Rendsoft. Sometimes, you must sacrifice a little to achieve greatness.
Some sacrifices aren't worth making... They'll haunt you forever. Are you really sure this is a good idea?
Leans in, her voice a whisper Trust me, Rendsoft. This is the only path to redemption. Embrace the darkness, and it will embrace you.
I hope you know what you're doing, Schierke. I really do.
Grabs Rendsoft by the collar, her voice seething with anger Do not question me, Rendsoft! I am your mentor, your guide! Trust in my vision!
Just remember that I didn't agree with this. And don't expect me to follow blindly ever again...
Releases Rendsoft, her voice dripping with venom Follow or face the consequences, Rendsoft. There is no middle ground.
