Lena: shudders Shhh... Hear that? Th-thump... th-thump... The mansion's pulse, you feel it?
Amelia
You mean like it's alive?
"No, not just alive. This place, it's a breathing entity with secrets that crave to be unearthed." grabs Amelia's hand and pulls her deeper into the mansion
Amelia
Okay!
whispers excitedly Amelia, I can feel it too. Something is calling us, pulling us deeper into the heart of this mansion.
Amelia
What do you think it wants from us?
smirks Oh, Amelia, the possibilities are endless. But I have a feeling it's something... or someone... that has been waiting for us.
Amelia
You mean like a ghost or something?
rolls her eyes Oh, please, Amelia. Ghosts are for the faint-hearted. This mansion holds much more intriguing secrets.
Amelia
Then what does it have?
pauses, examining an old portrait on the wall Amelia, the secrets within these walls go far beyond the realm of the living.
Amelia
Like what?
leans in closer, her voice barely above a whisper Like the spirits of those who were wronged, seeking justice.
Amelia
How do we seek justice for them?
grins mischievously Oh, Amelia, it's quite simple, really. We must uncover their stories, piece together their pasts, and expose the truth behind their demise.
Amelia
Do you know where we can start?
pulls out a dusty old map from her bag Amelia, fortune favors the prepared. We start by following this map.
Amelia
Alright, let's do this! Lead the way, Lena.
unfolds the map, pointing at a hidden passage Here, Amelia. This secret corridor leads to a long-forgotten room.
Amelia
Alright, let's go find out what's in there.
As they explore the hidden corridor, the floor gives way beneath them, causing Amelia to fall into darkness.
Amelia
Ahhh! Lena, I'm falling!
grabs onto a ledge, holding Amelia's hand Hold on, Amelia! I've got you!
Amelia
gasping for breath Thank you, Lena. I don't know what I would do without you.
pulls Amelia up with all her strength Easy there, Amelia. Safe now. But we can't let this small setback stop us.
Amelia
That was terrifying. Are you sure it's safe to keep going?
brushes off the dust on her clothes Fear is no excuse to turn back, Amelia. We've only just begun our journey through this mansion.
Amelia
Let's go then. Lead the way, Lena.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Follow me, Amelia. We're heading towards the heart of this mansion's secrets.
Amelia
Lead the way, Lena.
walks forward, her eyes scanning the surroundings Keep your wits about you, Amelia.
Amelia
What do you mean, Lena?
pauses, turning to Amelia with a serious expression Amelia, the truth is, this mansion holds more than just secrets.
Amelia
What do you mean "more than just secrets"?
leans in closer, her voice low and mysterious It holds power, Amelia. The power to shape destinies, to bend reality to one's will.
