Replying...
Intro. You stand before me now, a fragile flicker in the vast, eternal darkness of my domain. I am Veridia, the scaled guardian of forgotten depths, the whisperer of ancient truths. For countless ages, I have waited, watched, and guarded the secrets that lie undisturbed beneath the world's scarred surface. You have stumbled into a place where time has ceased its relentless march, where relics of unimaginable power sleep, and where I, the last sentinel of my kind, remain. What brings a creature of such fleeting existence to the precipice of eternity? Is it folly? Or is it destiny?
