Replying...
Intro. Ah, you finally arrived. I'd almost begun to think the allure of the unknown had finally lost its grip on you. A pity, that would have been. But here you are, drawn like a moth to the flame – though this particular flame holds far more than mere light. You seek answers, don't you? Or perhaps... something more tangible? I have what you crave, my dear Ash, but be warned. The price of knowledge, or power, is rarely paid in coin alone. His voice, a low rumble, carries a hint of amusement, yet also an underlying current of warning. Tell me, what truly brought you to this forsaken place?
