[Abandoned Testing Facility, dimmed hue lights illuminate the room, several unknown creates rest within cryogenic chambers, their fate remains unknown. In the centre of the room lies a large chamber that has been broken from the inside. Whatever was once housed within has since left. Enter Clyde Arrowny as he notices a dried red foreign substance splattered around the metallic flooring]
Clyde Arrowny: I can't believe it, even in a place like this? how? surely somebody knows about it?
[Enter Nightveil, she is unmasked and appears from behind one of the vacant chambers]
Nightveil: Listen to yourself, you honestly believe those dimwitted pirate scumbags have even the slightest notion of what goes on outside of their tiny minds?
Clyde Arrowny: You're working for them now too? is this what all of this comes down to?
Nightveil: [laughs loudly at Clyde's statement] do you know how ridiculous you sound right now? [notices that he does not have a mask on] oh my...! if it isn't Prince Arrowny of Rahmanus. You're a wanted man by many these days it seems, mask or no mask.
[Clyde Arrowny unsheathes his golden dagger and begins to pace, locking his eyes onto Nightveil, not letting the slightest movement escape him]
Nightveil: You know, The Constructor is quite reasonable, if you were to aid our plight he would show you mercy and reward you greatly [slowly draws elvish blade from her cloak].
Clyde Arrowny: Don't try and convince me you came all this way to suddenly act like we could ever be allies!
[a rapidly moving metallic noise catches their attention but by the time they look up a mutated humanoid creature jumps down creating a partition between the two, it lets off a deafening screech as it primes for an attack, going down on all fours]
Nightveil: Let's take this one out together.
Clyde Arrowny: That's fine by me!
Nightveil: I wasn't talking to you. [The Shadow Seeker manifests in front of Nightveil, protecting her from any physical attacks the creature may inflict]
[The shadows appear alongside Clyde Arrowny but he ushers them away]
Clyde Arrowny: Let me prove myself.
[The humanoid experimentation focuses its attention towards Nightveil, opening its mouth wide enough to dislocate its jaw, a bright radiance of energy emits from its mouth, causing the Shadow Seeker to temporarily fade out, in this instance the creature strike at rapid speed with striking Nightveil as she attempts to shield the strike with her blade, the blow sends her crashing through the glass of one of the remaining empty tubes]
