-Sysial glances at the phial and then to you.-
Sysial: Interesting…so I am to test you it seems.
-Sysial laughs.-
Sysial: You must truly have a talent for causing others pain and dismay, or you would not have been sent to me.
Sysial: It makes me wonder if you truly understand what path you have begun to take.
Sysial: I suppose Relliom did not tell you who we serve…
-Sysial studies your reaction closely.-
Sysial: I can tell you only a little.
Sysial: Our Master is the true ruler of all of Yliakum and beyond.
Sysial: We are nothing, yet everything in our Master's shadow.
Sysial: The power I will…
-Sysial shakes her head with a small smile and corrects herself.-
Sysial: …we will be granted transcends all known powers.
-Sysial stops and narrows her eyes at you.-
Sysial: That power comes with great sacrifice.
Sysial: Every move you make must be draped by darkness.
Sysial: Every step that moves you forward will be built on the blood and pain of those who are not worthy.
Sysial: Pray that you are not one of the unworthy.
Sysial: Tell me now, are you willing to devote your life to this new Master?
YOU: Yes, I am.
Sysial: Then it is time.
-Sysial uncorks the phial and sprinkles it in her hand. The smell of dried herbs, clacker meat, and something unidentifiable fills the air.-
Sysial: This will not hurt…
Sysial: much.
-Sysial blows the powder into your face and everything goes dark.-
