"I agree... to sign the Enslavement Contract." Not everyone possesses the courage to face death unflinchingly.
Threatened by its looming presence, Victor chose to submit.
Following Victor's submission, Baal whispered a convoluted and arcane incantation into Ethan's ear.
"Wanderer lost within the desert, in the oasis, I heed your call, bestowing upon you an inexhaustible spring. From this day forth, you shall serve me, without betrayal, until the world fades to oblivion..." The peculiar chant echoed, invoking a mysterious force.
A phantom-like contract manifested mid-air, inscribed with twisting characters unfamiliar to Ethan.
Yet, just a glance made him realize the significance of these writings.
"What language is this?" Ethan turned to inquire of Baal.
Baal shook her head mid-air, "I am not certain. Perhaps it's the language of the deities."
"No! It's not the language of gods," Victor interjected.
