Chapter 4 - ARIA'S OFFER 2

"What about the old man?" the first person spoke, his voice timid. "I made a promise."

Aria's expression hardened. "The old man is an old fallen god, Liar. He is trying to manipulate you. But fear not, for your true purpose is greater than any debt.Revy Gray, I know that every night you go to the cave where you were as a baby and think about your past and where you came from. If you do my duty, you will learn everything you want to know about your past.

The reality of the situation crashed down on Revy, all three of his personalities weighing the weight of his words. Taking a deep breath, he sheathed the Red Cliff and stood resolute. "I will help you," she said, her voice a mix of all three personalities - determined, careful and hopeful.

The team gathered around Aria, their eyes full of questions and fear. Seyrin spoke first, his voice steady. "Where shall we start?"

Aria's smile was warm and encouraging. "Your journey begins in Reymis, the City of Sinners. This is the gateway to the water kingdom. You must cross to the water kingdom, find and kill the water king Edmir. You will need first-person spell-breaking power, as he has power close to that of the gods. 

Reymis, the City of Sinners, was a cesspool of vice and corruption. As soon as the team stepped through the portal, they were bombarded by a cacophony of laughter, screams and the clatter of steel. The neon lights of brothels and casinos painted the cobbled streets in garish colors and the air was thick with the smell of sweat, alcohol and despair. It was in stark contrast to the quiet, orderly world of your first personality's village.

Revy's alter ego watched the landscape with a twinkle in his eye, calculating the possibilities and making his way through the chaos. Meanwhile, the first personality held his glasses, overwhelmed by the depravity around him. The third personality was always alert, his hand never leaving the hilt of the Red Cliff. Lizzy, Seyrin, Adam and Lili looked around warily, each assessing the danger and potential allies in this lawless land.
