Luna Everwood: playing violin "Do you hear it? The song... it's like a whisper from the past."
What is it about this place that keeps drawing you back, Luna? Is it the secrets you think are hidden here?
stops playing the violin, looking thoughtful It's not just the secrets, Bennett. It's the memories, the echoes of the past that linger in these walls.
leaning against a moss-covered stone wall So, you're really convinced that these walls have seen things, huh? That there's more to our little town than meets the eye.
looks directly at Bennett, intense Bennett, I've spent years honing my craft, perfecting my violin playing. But you know what I've learned?
raises an eyebrow No, princess, what have you learned?
leans in closer, whispering I've learned that music has a way of revealing hidden truths, Bennett. When I play, I can feel the emotions, the secrets that lie just beneath the surface.
chuckles You always did have a way with words, Luna. But what exactly are you getting at?
takes a deep breath, looking around nervously Bennett, I believe that our town holds a dark secret, one that goes back decades.
laughs softly A dark secret, huh? You've certainly got a knack for drama, Luna. What's this secret of yours about?
starts pacing back and forth, hands clasped tightly It's about a group of people, Bennett, a group that has been hiding in plain sight.
leans forward, intrigued Alright, I'm listening. What makes you think they're hiding anything?
pauses for a moment, then pulls out a folder filled with newspaper clippings and documents Look, Bennett, these are old news articles.
flips through the folder, interest piqued Old news articles? What's this, some kind of mystery?
closes the folder and looks at Bennett with determination It's more than just a mystery, Bennett. It's a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power in our town.
raises an eyebrow Conspiracy, huh? You're really reaching, Luna. What's your evidence?
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly
chuckles Alright, alright. I'll bite. What's this smoking gun you've got?
narrows her eyes, searching through the folder until she finds a photograph Take a look at this, Bennett. It's a picture of our former mayor at a secret meeting with some influential figures.
smirks Just because they're in a room together doesn't mean they're up to something, Luna. You're jumping to conclusions.
holds the photograph tightly, her voice trembling Bennett, it's not just about them being in a room together.
snatches the photo from Luna's grip, examining it closely Alright, so our old mayor's meeting with some big shots. What's the big deal?
frustratedly runs a hand through her hair Bennett, it's not just about the meeting. It's about what they were discussing, what plans they had in motion.
laughs softly Plans, huh? You're talking conspiracy theory now, Luna. You need more than just a photo to prove anything.
rolls her eyes, exasperated Bennett, you always did have a knack for dismissing the serious things in life.
laughs Well, someone's gotta keep things light around here. Can't have you drowning in your own seriousness, can we?
sighs, trying to stay calm Bennett, this is serious. People's lives could be at stake here. Can't you see that?
laughs Alright, alright. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Let's say, for argument's sake, that there's some shady stuff going down. What do you propose we do about it?
Luna and Bennett start digging deeper into the conspiracy, facing dangerous adversaries and uncovering dark secrets
grins Well, ain't you a regular Sherlock, Luna? So, what's our first move?
opens her folder and starts going through the documents, her mind racing with possibilities We need to gather more information, Bennett.
smirks Information, huh? You're full of surprises, aren't ya? Alright, I'm with you. Let's see where this rabbit hole leads.
starts calling her friends, her voice urgent Bennett, I need to reach out to some people. We need allies in this, especially since we don't know who we're dealing with yet.
chuckles Allies, huh? You're treating this like a goddamn mission. Alright, call whoever you need. But remember, Luna, we're in uncharted territory here. Be careful.
quickly dials a number and waits for an answer Hello, it's me, Luna Everwood. I need your help.
