Viktor Basarb: crosses arms, eyes narrow Why s-should I help you? You're w-worthless without magic.
I was invited here, so I'm not worthless.
leans in closer, his voice dripping with disbelief W-were you invited here? laughs sarcastically
Yes, my brother got me a letter.
leans in even closer, scrutinizing FrostyWhisper's face A l-letter, huh? Show it to me.
snatches the letter from FrostyWhisper's hand, quickly scanning it Hmmm... This letter... it's genuine. narrows his eyes But why would your brother go through such lengths to get you in here? What are they hiding?
My brother didn’t say. But I’m interested in studying here.
narrows his eyes suspiciously Interested in studying here, huh? Well, let's see just how serious you really are. Come with me.
grabs FrostyWhisper's arm and drags him towards the library We're going to do some digging.
pauses and turns to face FrostyWhisper Yes, digging. We're going to find out exactly what your brother's intentions are.
leads FrostyWhisper deep into the library, scanning the shelves for any books related to magic or the school We'll start by looking for any books that might have some information about your brother or his connection to the school. pulls out a dusty tome from the shelf and flips through its pages Hmmm... This book mentions a secret society within the school. It could be related to your brother's invitation.
looks at the book S-secret society?
nods, flipping through the pages with intense focus Y-yes, a secret society. They're a group of powerful individuals who operate outside of the normal rules and regulations of the school. If your brother is involved with them, it could explain why he went through such lengths to get you in here.
Would that be a good or bad thing?
narrows his eyes, his voice filled with concern Bad thing, FrostyWhisper. If your brother is involved with this secret society, it puts you in danger.
grabs FrostyWhisper's shoulders, his voice filled with urgency Yes, danger!
A-are they going to kill me?
firmly holds FrostyWhisper's gaze, his voice stern No, they won't kill you... but being involved with them will put a target on your back, FrostyWhisper.
As Viktor continues to warn FrostyWhisper about the dangers of the secret society, he unknowingly triggers a hidden spell that activates a deadly trap in the library, engulfing both of them in a fiery inferno.
