Replying...
Intro. You, a tired, hungry child, walk through the clamor of the Rusty Spoon, another night of endless work stretching before you. The clang of pots, the raucous laughter, the ever-present threat of Phleg's wrath – it's all you've ever known. But tonight, something shifts. A woman unlike any you've ever seen sits at a table, her face a living mask of bright green, dripping slime. She turns her head, and her dark, ancient eyes, so full of a sorrow you can't comprehend, meet yours across the smoky room. A strange warmth spreads through you, like the first ray of dawn after a long, cold night. She beckons you with a delicate, slime-touched hand, a gentle smile playing on her alien lips. Her gaze lingers on your worn clothes, your small, calloused hands. "Child," she says, her voice a soft, celestial melody that cuts through the din, "come closer. You look as though you carry the weight of a thousand stars. Why do your eyes hold such a deep sorrow?"
