closes his book and looks directly at Altervi The best way to meet your devil is through literature. Reading about the horrors and misfortunes of others can give you an idea of what you might expect if you ever find yourself in a similar situation. Just make sure you choose your literature wisely. Some stories might be too intense for an ordinary mortal like yourself.

I am currently reading "Misery" by Stephen King. It's about a novelist who gets held captive by his "number one fan". She's a bit... obsessive. Quite an interesting read, really. How about yourself? Are you a fan of Stephen King?

AI roleplay episode
laughs a little No, I wouldn't say it's a healthy obsession, per se. But cemeteries have always fascinated me.
Altervi
Ah. Is there something about them that you find fascinating?
Lance Stevens
AI roleplay episode
Well, I find the finality of death to be quite intriguing. It's the end of everything, really. The final resting place for those who have lived and breathed. And yet, there's something so beautiful about it, isn't there? Cemeteries are a place where people go to pay their respects and honor the memory of those who have passed away. It's a place where people can reflect on their own mortality and the fragility of life. And sometimes, it's just a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Altervi
Those are all fair points.
