"Ok, wait, wait, wait," I babbled, holding my hands up, " you are stuck with who?"

"You, of course, numbskull. Who else am I talking to." He quoted then laughed mockingly, wiping an imaginary tear in his eyes. "Man, how long has it been since I was here?"

"what do you mean?" the sound of my voice filled with curiosity. He replied, "Eh, you'll know it eventually. That little brain of yours won't understand it yet."

"Can't you at least try to explain the current situation I'm in?" I asked. "Just to...you know, inform me about all of...this," I noted, referring to the impossibility of the situation.

"ok, I'll try," He shrugged. "but pay close attention, it's too tiring to repeat it all over again." I nodded. He straightened himself up, recommending me to get comfortable. He gestured his hands in front then made a circling motion. There was a faint glow of an orb in the middle.

"Hmm, where should I start?" He asked himself, emitting a loud 'aha' once an idea popped into his head.

"How 'bout we start with the formal introductions," he said happily. "Well, as you already know my name's Bill Cipher. I love making deals and stuff. I came from another dimension that's far more complicated than yours." Hmm, so he's an alien perhaps? The magical orb shifted into different figures, still, it was vague but enough to follow on what he was telling.

He continued his 'formal' introduction with a lot of narcissistic compliments about himself and the whole exaggeration about how powerful he can be and how many dimensions he has conquered (using the light of the orb to emphasize everything), I don't even know if I should believe him or not. Nonetheless, it didn't stop me from being impatient as to when will he stop this and head straight to the point.

"Yeah, ok I get it. You're something that could be magical like a genie who loves making deals and stuff. Can you just skip to the part where I come in?" I demanded, causing the magic to quickly evaporate into thin air. He gruffed.

"ok, fine. Geez, talk about rude interruptions," he mumbled to himself those last words. Then started to do it all over again. But this time, the lights were forming some sort of necklace. "Everything starts with that pendant you're wearing." he pointed to the aforementioned artifact. I attempted to touch the ethereal object in front of me.

"what does this thing do anyways? It's just some kind of pendant-"

"That, my dear, is something that should never be joked about when it comes to dark magic." He said, his voice lowered and serious. The lights changed red and flickered cautiously, like lightning of a storm. The curiosity inside of me grew bigger. As well as fear. He continued, "That pendant you're wearing contains a powerful magic that could create anything you want, have unfathomable powers, conquering and destroying worlds... It can practically do anything!" He exaggerated every word, while the light follows his command.

"It would be very unlucky if you end up being the one used against it. Much less, no one has ever destroyed that thing since forever!" He exclaimed, "the only one who can destroy it is its wearer and that is you, my dear." lightly, he chuckled while my fingers touched the surface of the pendant resting on my chest.

I eyed the artifact that he was referring, eyes filled with astonishment as to what the pendant was capable of. But if it's something so dangerously powerful, why haven't they destroyed it? You know, the previous owners of it? before it was given to me? Specifically, the guy who gave it to me.
