No, sweetheart, she didn't just leave us. There was something...something dark that took her from us.
Dark? Like a monster or something?
Yeah, something like that. But not just any monster. It's something...something much more sinister.
And you think this place has something to do with it?

Sure, I guess. As long as it's not too dangerous.
starts explaining how to pick locks Alright, listen up. I'm gonna teach you how to pick locks. It's a useful skill to have, especially in situations like this. First, you gotta understand that locks are just mechanical devices that can be manipulated with the right tools and knowledge. The key is to understand how they work and how to trick them into opening. Onedorita: eagerly nods I'm ready to learn!
