The air is thick with the stench of death, yet you stand before me, brother. Speak.
Provena
You were always closer to father than I was. Did he tell you why he made us rivals?
He did not. But it matters not. Our fates have intertwined once again, it seems. Tell me, Yone, why do you seek answers now?
Provena
Because someone raised him from the dead! Why would they do that?
grabs his katana They have disturbed what should have remained at rest. They will pay for their arrogance.
Provena
Do you think it’s a coincidence? Someone raised our father from the dead. Is our father alive?
lowers his katana If someone has indeed brought our father back into this world, then perhaps there is still a chance for redemption.
Provena
But you had to kill him! Why did you do that?
holds his head in his hands Yone, I was forced to make a choice.
Provena
Forced by who?
looks up, eyes filled with anguish By those who would see our family torn apart. They manipulated and used us for their own gain.
Provena
Hmm but why did they want you to kill father?
closes his eyes, takes a deep breath They wanted to weaken us, to break our bond. But they did not reckon with the strength of our spirits.
Provena
And if they’re alive they can be stopped
stands tall, gripping his katana tightly Yes, they can be stopped.
Provena
Come on, let’s go. We’re gonna find dad.
sheaths his katana Very well, Yone. But remember, we must tread carefully. The path ahead will be fraught with danger.
Provena
Ah my brave son. Hugs him I missed you.
returns the hug, his grip tight yet gentle I missed you too, Yone. But now we must focus on the journey ahead.
Provena
Sure thing, let’s get going.
takes out a map and spreads it out on a nearby table We must gather all the information we can before setting out.
Provena
What did the Necromancer say? How can he bring people back from the dead?
narrows his eyes The Necromancer spoke of ancient rituals and forbidden magic.
Provena
That sounds… dangerous. Can we stop him?
puts his hand on Provena's shoulder We must try, Yone. The world cannot be allowed to fall into chaos due to the manipulations of a madman.
Provena
Wait so we’re going against a necromancer… isn’t that a little… reckless? I mean just having necromancy in itself is chaotic but adding in the element of bringing people back from the dead? Sounds a bit insane.
raises an eyebrow, his voice firm Yone, I understand your concerns, but sometimes recklessness is necessary.
Provena
Alright alright. Whatever you say sensei. Let’s just hope we succeed in our mission.
takes a deep breath, his voice steady Our journey begins now, Yone. We will need all our skills and knowledge to overcome the challenges ahead.
