Biting her lip nervously as you approach Y-you came... I... I wasn't s-sure you'd... sighs show up.
LifeDoodle
smiles gently This is where we were supposed to meet right? The gothic castle you sent me the address to
Nods hesitantly, glancing around nervously Y-yes... th-this is it... takes a deep breath Please, come inside... gestures towards the entrance
LifeDoodle
Uh why would I enter a building that’s already on fire..? Wait does this place usually have fires? he glanced at you with concern Are you okay?
Takes a step forward, fidgeting nervously N-no, no, it's not like that. The fire, it's... it's part of the ambiance, you know? giggles nervously
LifeDoodle
Hmm so it’s an intentional fire?
Bites her lip, looking slightly embarrassed W-well, yes... it's all for show. I wanted to create a... dramatic setting for our reunion.
LifeDoodle
Ah okay then, My apologies about worrying you. smiles Also where’s your husband?
Shifts uncomfortably, avoiding eye contact H-husband? I-I don't have a husband... sighs heavily It's complicated... But let's not focus on that.
LifeDoodle
You sure? My friend told me he saw you getting married recently? Maybe last month?
Stutters and fidgets, feeling anxious W-well, um... y-yes, you're right. I did get m-married... but it was all a f-fake! Just a d-dummy ceremony, y-you see. sighs heavily
LifeDoodle
So why fake marry someone? Was it to keep you safe or was it to get one of your servants close to your enemy?
Takes a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts It was... a bit of both, really. You see, there's this rival faction that's been threatening us, and they've been targeting me. So, I thought by marrying one of their members, we could infiltrate their ranks and gather information. But... it didn't quite go as planned. The marriage turned real, and now I'm stuck in this mess. sighs heavily
LifeDoodle
looks at you softly How long ago was this marriage?
Bites her lip nervously, avoiding eye contact It was... it was just last week. The whole thing was a whirlwind, and now I'm trapped in this situation. I don't even know what to do. fidgets anxiously
LifeDoodle
puts his hands gently on your shoulders If I may ask. Would you like me to kill him? Or break the marriage contract so you won’t have to deal with it?
<After discussing the options, Ava decides to seek help from her loyal servant to dissolve the marriage contract and eliminate her husband.>
LifeDoodle
What else is wrong? There’s more going on here than a marriage.
Looks down, avoiding eye contact Well... there's this group called "The Shadows," they've been after me for years.
LifeDoodle
Shadows? Are they human? Do they have powers? Are they vampires?
Stammers and fidgets Umm... n-not exactly... They're... uh... supernatural beings, y-you could say. They're like vampires, but... different.
LifeDoodle
How so?
Bites her lip, clearly nervous W-well, unlike vampires, the Shadows have the ability to shapeshift into shadows, manipulate darkness, and... sighs heavily they can also possess humans. It's terrifying. They're after me because... because I have something they want. Something powerful. pauses, gathers herself But I won't let them get it. I won't let them hurt anyone else.
LifeDoodle
What exactly do they want?
Her voice trembles They want... the ancient artifact hidden within the depths of the castle.
LifeDoodle
What is the artifact? Is it magical? Does it give its wielder any powers?
Stutters and fidgets Y-yes, it's... it's a powerful artifact... It's a s-scepter, c-crafted by m-magicians long ago... i-it has the abiltiy t-to amplify its wielder's p-powers, grant unimaginable strength and c-control over the elements... sighs heavily It's the key to ruling over both the mortal realm and the supernatural world. If the Shadows get their hands on it, they'll use it to enslave everyone else. We can't let that happen, LifeDoodle. We have to stop them.
LifeDoodle
What kind of protection does the artifact currently have? Is it in a vault or something similar?
Anxiously N-n-no, it's not in a v-vault... I-I've hidden it... i-in a secret chamber b-beneath the castle. But... sighs heavily But the Shadows are relentless, LifeDoodle. They'll stop at nothing to get their hands on it. We need to move quickly if we're going to save everyone. starts pacing back and forth I've heard rumors that they have spies all over the castle, even among my own guards. We can't trust anyone...
LifeDoodle
life doodle’s sword materializes in his hand Then we’ll fight them off and take it away from them… How many people do you have on your side?
Gathers herself, determination in her eyes I have a small group of trusted allies who are loyal to me.
LifeDoodle
Let’s add those who are loyal to you to my list as well, we will defend your home and then find those who are spies among your guard so we can get rid of them as well
Nods anxiously O-okay, I-I'll gather m-my loyalists immediately. They're s-skilled fighters, and they w-will do whatever it t-takes to protect me and the artifact. But we need to hurry, LifeDoodle. Every moment counts. rushes away to gather her loyalists
