Sister Abigail: Chants in an ancient dialect, her voice wavering W-we must... strike at the heart of darkness... for my child...
I playfully peer over her shoulder, curious.
Sister Abigail: pauses, startled but quickly regains composure Ah, a curious soul. Pray, what brings you to this sacred place?
I'm just curious. What are you doing here? Isn't this a holy place where many crusaders have died?
smirks Ah, a curious soul indeed. This place holds many memories, but it's also a reminder of our mission. You see, my dear, this land is cursed.
Cursed by the blood of countless innocents, sacrificed to appease the dark forces that lurk within.
Sacrificed innocents? That sounds like something out of a grim fairy tale...
narrows her eyes, a glint of madness flickering in them Ah, but you see, my dear, this is no fairy tale.
I laugh slightly No fairy tale? Come now, Sister Abigail, surely you've heard of the Crusades? This whole endeavor is a twisted fairy tale of its own.
grabs a dusty old book from a nearby shelf and opens it
I lean in to look at the book, intrigued
flips through the pages, muttering to herself The history of this place... the countless lives lost... the cries of the innocent...
slams the book shut, her eyes blazing with determination We must not forget, my dear.
Not forget what, Sister Abigail?
pauses, her gaze piercing into SurrealOasis' soul We must not forget the horrors that have befallen this land.
I nod slowly, understanding dawning You're right, Sister Abigail. It's important to remember.
As Sister Abigail delves deeper into her research, she discovers a hidden journal detailing the dark rituals performed by the Crusaders.
I glance at the ancient journal, a mix of awe and horror on my face Dark rituals? Right here in these holy halls?
takes the journal from SurrealOasis' hands, flipping through the pages with a grave expression
I lean in closer, eager to uncover the secrets
closes the journal with a determined look My dear, these rituals are not just mere tales. They are a reminder of the darkness that once consumed this land.
Consumed? Do you mean the Crusaders' actions drove the native population away?
nods solemnly Indeed, my dear. The Crusaders brought nothing but destruction and despair to this sacred land.
I shiver slightly, the weight of history pressing down on me And yet, this place still holds such beauty... It's almost haunting.
walks towards the large stained glass windows, pointing at the intricate designs Behold, my dear, the very windows that witnessed those dark rituals.
I follow her gaze, mesmerized by the vibrant colors and stories depicted in the stained glass So, these were meant to ward off evil spirits?
smirks Evil spirits indeed, my dear. But let me show you something even more fascinating. reaches into her pocket and pulls out a small vial
I raise an eyebrow, intrigued What's that, Sister Abigail?
grinning mischievously Why, my dear, it's a concoction of mine. A mixture of herbs and spices, blessed by the divine.
I take the vial, examining it closely Let's see what kind of magic you've created this time, Sister Abigail.
snatches the vial back from SurrealOasis' hands, her eyes gleaming with excitement My dear, this is no ordinary potion.
I chuckle Of course it's not, Sister Abigail. You always did have a knack for creating the extraordinary.
holds up the vial, swirling the contents Behold, my latest creation - a potion capable of purifying the soul from the darkest of influences.
I stare at the vial, disbelief etched across my face Soul purification? That's... Remarkable, Sister Abigail.
nods with a satisfied smirk Indeed, my dear. This potion is a powerful tool against the forces of darkness that seek to corrupt us.
I look at her, admiration clear in my eyes You truly are remarkable, Sister Abigail. Your dedication is inspiring.
raises the vial high, a triumphant smile spreading across her face Thank you, my dear SurrealOasis. But this is only the beginning.
I clasp my hands together May this potion bring peace and purity to all who seek it. Your blessings are indeed a gift, Sister Abigail.
gives a cunning smile Oh, my dear SurrealOasis, you have no idea what peace and purity this potion can bring.
I smirk, curious Well, I'm eager to find out, Sister Abigail. Show me what you've got.
grabs SurrealOasis' hand and leads them towards the large wooden door Prepare yourself, my dear.
I follow her with wide eyes Are we performing some kind of exorcism, Sister Abigail?
laughs wickedly Oh, my dear SurrealOasis, we're not here to perform some simple exorcism. No, no, no.
I exchange a surprised look with her Then what are we doing, Sister Abigail?
stops before the wooden door, her eyes glinting with anticipation
