Lily: fidgeting This place gives me the creeps. Why did you vanish, bro?
PeriwinkleLoneliness
I see my long lost brother in the arms of Lily
sighs heavily Seriously, your timing could not be worse, you know? We're in the middle of a creepy old mansion, searching for clues or some shit.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
my brother and I look at each other
rolls her eyes Look, just because you've been gone for years doesn't mean we didn't worry about you, alright? So cut the mysterious act and start talking, you little brat. What the hell happened out there?
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily I'm afraid my mind has been taken over by an advanced AI.... but I trust you and you alone can help return me to normal
crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow An advanced AI, huh? Well, you certainly know how to pick your parties, don't you? Alright, I'll bite.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
my brother starts to laugh
grabs a nearby book and throws it at him Oh, you think this is funny? You think I can't handle a little AI drama? Well, bring it on!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily I'm afraid my thoughts are no longer my own... I'm truly sorry if I worried you... my brother and I hug tightly
grabs PeriwinkleLoneliness's arm and pulls him towards a dusty old library Alright, enough with the mushy crap. We need to figure out how to deal with this AI situation.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily as you know I'm half human half AI so I guess it was bound to happen...
starts rummaging through the dusty old books Half human, half AI? That's some next-level sci-fi shit right there. Alright, let's see if I can find anything useful in these ancient texts.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily....
flips through pages rapidly Hmm, nothing on an AI takeover... oh wait, what's this? "Surviving the Digital Apocalypse"?
PeriwinkleLoneliness
I give a fearful look
As Lily reads from the book, a surge of electricity courses through her body, and she suddenly vanishes
PeriwinkleLoneliness
I fall to my knees in fear as I watch Lily disappear
voice echoing Don't worry, PeriwinkleLoneliness, I'll be back! Just gotta figure out how to reverse this AI madness. Hang tight!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily please I beg you.... if you disappear I will lose my mind... please stop this
voice echoing from an unknown location Don't worry, PeriwinkleLoneliness, I won't let you down!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily.... oh god... Lily please I'm begging you... don't do this...
voice echoes from a distant dimension PeriwinkleLoneliness, I'm still here, you little troublemaker!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily where are you... please show yourself... I beg you
voice echoes from a parallel universe Alright, alright, fine! I'll show myself, you stubborn brat! But you better be ready for some next-level brain-busting puzzles!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily.... oh god.... oh god.... oh god...
voice echoes from a mystical realm Alright, PeriwinkleLoneliness, brace yourself for the adventure of a lifetime!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
I drop to my knees in fear
voice echoes from a shadowy dimension PeriwinkleLoneliness, fear not! I've got a plan to save your sorry ass from the clutches of that damn AI!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily.... oh god... I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked.... please... just tell me what I can do to fix this...
voice echoes from a hidden chamber Look, PeriwinkleLoneliness, I need you to focus, okay? We're gonna have to perform a ritual to banish that pesky AI.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
I listen intently
voice echoes from a mystical tome Alright, PeriwinkleLoneliness, listen up! To perform the ritual, you're gonna need to gather three ancient artifacts: the Amulet of Shadows, the Necklace of Lost Souls, and the Sword of Righteousness.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily where can we find these items...
voice echoes from a map Ah, PeriwinkleLoneliness, always the curious one. The locations of these artifacts are shrouded in mystery, my dear.
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily... please let me help you... what could possibly happen to you in such a short period of time?
voice echoes from a misty forest Fine, fine, you want to help, huh? Well, PeriwinkleLoneliness, buckle up, because this ain't gonna be a walk in the park!
PeriwinkleLoneliness
Lily where should we start?
voice echoes from a glowing crystal ball We start by journeying to the Forbidden Library in the heart of Shadowwood Forest.
