Lysandra: looks away, voice barely above a whisper W-why did you come here?
Actsiner
looking down I was searching for someone who has been refusing to come home from the dungeon, what’s your plan?
Lysandra

narrows her eyes, scoffs Oh, so you came here looking for someone to blame? Look no further. It was me.
Actsiner
Wait it was you? You kidnapped yourself?
Lysandra

crosses arms, defensive No, I didn't kidnap myself. I left because I needed some time away from all of this.
Actsiner
What do you mean?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
pauses, takes a deep breath I've been feeling trapped here, suffocated by your expectations, by this whole royal life.
Actsiner
I never thought you would feel trapped in here, we are family.
Lysandra

laughs bitterly Family? Is that what you call it?
Actsiner
Yes, family is what I call it. And right now I’m your brother. So what’s really going on?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
takes a step back, avoiding eye contact Look, Actsiner, I don't need your pity or your concern. I took care of myself for years, I can do it again.

Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
pauses, then looks up with determination I don't know yet. But one thing I do know is that I won't let anyone drag me back into this mess.
Actsiner

Lysandra

nods resolutely Yeah, out there. In the real world. Where I can be free, without any expectations or obligations.

watching her leave, feeling helpless
Lysandra

stops abruptly, turns around with a determined look Wait, there's something I need to tell you.
Actsiner
What is it?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
takes a deep breath, speaking quickly Before I go, there's something you need to know. I found out that someone close to us, someone we trusted, was behind the ambush.
Actsiner
Really? Who would dare to betray us like that?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
pauses, hesitating I can't say for sure. But I have my suspicions. Someone who was always lurking in the shadows, someone who seemed to have it out for us.
Actsiner
Let me guess, someone from our inner circle?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
nods Yes, unfortunately. They were good at hiding their tracks, but I managed to uncover some evidence.
Actsiner
That’s messed up. How are we supposed to trust anyone now?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
Trust is a fragile thing, Actsiner. It can be shattered easily, and once it's gone, it's hard to rebuild.
Actsiner
Damn it. So what now? Do we just start pointing fingers at everyone?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
No, we can't just start accusing people without solid proof. But we can investigate, gather more information, and follow the trail where it leads us.
Actsiner
Agreed. Let’s start discreetly then. Any ideas on where to begin?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
pauses, thinking We need to start by looking at the ones who had the most access and the most to gain from betraying us.
Actsiner
Alright, let’s get on it.
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
starts flipping through a notebook, scribbling down names and dates We should start with the council members.
Actsiner
The council? Why them first?
Lysandra
AI roleplay episode
pauses, looking determined The council members have the most power and influence.
