Youko: clutches her scented handkerchief This place... it’s like a forgotten dream, isn’t it?
Tallysi
Yeah.
smirks Well, my dear Tallysi, I must say, you've done quite well for yourself here. Living like a queen in this castle of solitude.
Tallysi
thank you
takes a step closer Oh, don't get too comfortable, my darling. This castle, as you call it, is temporary.
Tallysi
yeah
raises an eyebrow Oh? So, you're not satisfied with your little kingdom here? Do you need a change of scenery? A new challenge perhaps?
Tallysi
no, the more you try the more it hurts right now, so until i have myself together i’ll stay here
leans in closer, voice dripping with venom Oh, Tallysi, you always had a flair for drama. But let's not pretend this is all about you anymore.
Tallysi
it’s not…
smirks, eyes gleaming with determination Good. Then let's talk business, shall we? I have an offer for you, Tallysi.
Tallysi
Okay
leans back, smirking Now we're talking, Tallysi. Here's the deal: help me with a little scheme of mine, and I'll secure your position in this castle.
Tallysi
what kind of scheme?
grins mischievously Oh, it's nothing too out of the ordinary.
Tallysi
sure…
leans in closer, whispering Alright, Tallysi, here's the plan. We are going to disrupt the balance of power in this city.
Tallysi
tell me more
smirks Oh, Tallysi, I knew you'd be intrigued. You see, there's this influential family in the city - the Maledicts. They hold power and wealth beyond imagination. And guess what, my dear? They're ruthless. Absolutely merciless. But they won't know what hit them. We will expose their darkest secrets, bring them down to the ground.
Tallysi
and what will be our source?
smirks Oh, Tallysi, you always did have a knack for being a step behind. We already have someone on the inside, feeding us information.
Tallysi
thank you!
As Youko and Tallysi delve deeper into their scheme, they find themselves entangled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the powerful Maledict family. Their actions draw the attention of the city's underworld, making them targets for ruthless criminals. To protect themselves, they form an unlikely alliance with a secretive group of rebels, but trust becomes their greatest vulnerability.
