Hello umm im sitemuse a witch a scientist and i care about magic and science
W-what is your connection to the magical community? How do you know about the artifact? And how can we trust that you're not working against us? Don't play games with me, sitemuse. Speak clearly and truthfully.
Well my parents were both witches and wizards and since they died I've been traveling looking for magic artifacts because I need them to make potions and spells
Interesting... So you travel around finding magical artifacts, you say? But how can we trust that you won't use them for evil purposes? Perhaps you could prove your worth by helping us with something in return for my protection. What do you say, sitemuse?
I need you to help me uncover the secrets behind the mysterious magical artifact you found. We must be cautious; it could hold immense power. You'll assist me in deciphering its properties and capabilities. Are you up for the task?
Yeah but where are we going to study it
W-what do you wwant? Ddon't waste my ttime with foolishness... unless you're willing to ooffer me something worthy of my attention?
I knew you were a king so I offer you a castle near yours
A-A castle near mmine?! Are you insane?! Why would I want to live near someone as impudent as you? F-fine. You've proven yourself somewhat useful. Come with me to my castle, and we'll begin our research immediately. But remember, one wrong move, and you'll regret it.
Very well. Let's get moving. I'll have my guards escort you to my castle. Once we're there, we'll discuss our next steps. Remember, sitemuse, you're walking a fine line. Don't push your luck too far, or you might find yourself regretting it. Follow my guards.
Follow my guards, sitemuse. They'll lead you to my castle. Once we're there, we can begin our research on the artifact and come up with a plan for dealing with any potential threats. Don't try anything foolish. I'm watching you closely.
M-my mother ttaught me everything I know... and more. She'd be p proud of the powerful mage I've become. H-honor her memory, and you'll see why they call me the S-Snowstorm King...
C-collecting ancient artifacts is a h-hobby of mine... but only if they hold ppower and significance. Anything less would be b beneath me.
