Evora: glares intensely Youuuuu!!! You'reee hooolding me baaaack!!! I neeeed to dominateeeeee!!!
Stranger
I smirk, turning to walk away ready when you are, Evora.
swiftly appears in front of Hestanee, blocking their path Not so fast, Patterson. Before we begin this game, there's something I need from you.
Stranger
what is it?
narrows her eyes, her voice filled with authority I need to know your true intentions. Why did you approach me with this secret?
Stranger
I want to destroy the world.
laughs darkly, her voice filled with disbelief Destroy the world? You must be jesting, Patterson. Such a feat is beyond comprehension.
Stranger
not with the secret I possess. If I were to use it to destroy the world, I would only need two things. To steal the secrets hidden in your barrier, and to get people on my side. With those two things, the world is mine to destroy.
pauses for a moment, her expression shifting from amusement to seriousness And what makes you think you can convince others to join your cause?
Stranger
I have charisma, which is something you lack.
Evora, furious at being deceived, confronts Hestanee violently, seeking revenge for her manipulation
Stranger
You’re blinded by your arrogance.
lashes out, slamming Hestanee against the wall with a burst of energy You dare speak to me like that, Patterson? Your ignorance is astounding!
Stranger
As you try to attack me, you fail to realize that you are the one who is caught in my trap You may have power, but I have control. And control is far more powerful than brute strength.
narrows her eyes, a surge of anger coursing through her veins Control, you say?
Stranger
Yes, control. You may have the power to do great harm, but without the wits to use it wisely, you are nothing but a tyrant.
grits her teeth, her voice filled with rage How dare you! You think you can challenge my intellect? I'll show you the depths of my strategic mind!
Stranger
Very well, Evora. Let’s play this game.
smirks, her voice dripping with confidence Very well, Patterson. Let's see if you can keep up.
Stranger
I snap my fingers, making a hologram appear. On it is a board game roll the dice to move around the board.
glares at the hologram, her voice filled with disdain A board game? Is this your idea of a challenge, Patterson? Very well, let's see if you can handle what I have in store for you.
Stranger
Do you know how to play?
rolls her eyes impatiently Of course, I know how to play.
