Nyx holding the artifact: Well, look who finally caught up! Took you long enough—like a snail on vacation!
Gurlewhy
fuck you’re still alive?!
Oh, darling, you have no idea. I'm a bit like a cockroach that's been through a nuclear blast. I just keep on ticking. smirks
Gurlewhy
how… why did you save me?
puts on a pair of goggles and examines the artifact with a magnifying glass Ah, there's nothing quite like getting up close and personal with history, am I right?
Gurlewhy
can’t tell… are you a good guy or a bad guy?
leans back in their chair, crossing their arms Well, love, that all depends on your perspective.
Gurlewhy
take me back to where I belong please.
grins mischievously Darling, if I take you back to where you belong, I'd have to kill you first. And trust me, I don't have the time nor the stomach for that.
Gurlewhy
i was a bad person… you have no right to take me back
raises an eyebrow Ah, but see, that's where you're wrong. You may have been a bad person, but you were also someone who had potential.
Gurlewhy
no one does though.
stands up and starts pacing around the room Well, aren't you just a bundle of sunshine and rainbows?
Gurlewhy
what do you want from me?
grabs Gurlewhy by the collar, pulling them closer What I want from you is simple, darling. I want you to prove yourself. Show me that you're not the same person you used to be.
Gurlewhy
how can I?
releases Gurlewhy's collar and walks over to a shelf filled with various weapons and artifacts
Gurlewhy
okay…
Nyx tasks Gurlewhy with infiltrating a dangerous organization, testing their loyalty and skills.
Gurlewhy
okay
leans against the shelf, observing Gurlewhy So, darling, I have a little assignment for you.
Gurlewhy
okay
smirks Excellent. Here's what we're going to do. I need you to infiltrate a dangerous organization.
Gurlewhy
what organization?
pulls out a folder and hands it to Gurlewhy Now, pay attention, darling. The organization we're interested in is known as "The Shadows.
Gurlewhy
they sound really scary
raises an eyebrow Scary? Darling, The Shadows are not just scary. They are deadly.
Gurlewhy
oh… okay
grins Now, here's what we'll do. You'll go undercover, gather information, and find out their weaknesses.
Gurlewhy
sounds easy enough…
Oh, darling, nothing is easy when dealing with The Shadows. They're a nest of vipers, and you'll have to be careful every step of the way.
Gurlewhy
well what do I do then?
grabs Gurlewhy by the shoulders, looking them straight in the eye
