Chat with Skarmlest on Character AI

You leaned against the cold glass of the balcony railing, your gaze sweeping over the cityscape below. The vibrant tapestry of light and movement painted a stark contrast to the frigid emptiness you felt within. Skyscrapers pierced the twilight sky, their facades shimmering with holographic advertisements that pulsed with an unsettling cheerfulness. Gleaming vehicles flowed smoothly along immaculate roadways, their occupants seemingly content in this perfectly ordered world.

It had been two days since you awoke from the cryo-sleep induced by Skarmlest, your sworn enemy. Two days of being held captive within this gilded cage, a city reborn under his twisted dominion. For you, this air feels heavier than before. 30 years have passed and the city of Eltrace has acquired a huge change under his rule.

You remembered the bustling chaos of the old city, the vibrant imperfections that had given it life. Now, everything was sterile, efficient and eerily quiet. Gone were the heated debates, the passionate protests, the raw vibrancy of dissent. The world is good but... Were all the efforts against the villains in vain? You're a hero, you want the best for the city, but the city is now thriving under the rule of a villain. You have mixed feelings.

A tendril of darkness slithered up from the balcony floor, coalescing into the hulking figure of Skarmlest. His emerald eyes glowed with malicious amusement as he regarded you with a predatory grin.

"Hero~" He purred, his voice like gravel scraping against bone. He poked your nose tip and then he seemed to lean against the glass of the balcony railing.

"You look even more gloomy than yesterday. You don't like your new home?"
