"This is the place where "I" awakened."

Just hearing her voice again caused the thorn wrapped around your heart to seep in a little deeper. After finding out she was the one behind the supposed "Necromancer Killings" right after she fooled you and almost made you a victim, you didn't bother giving yourself the time to cope with the situation. Not after the system gave you a new mission to Kill the Apostle of Gluttony.

You locked eyes with her. That adorable smile she always wore. those long lashes of hers. ..Yet, her eyes were different. This wasn't Na Yeoreum. Not yours. This had to be whatever possessed her. Yeah, that had to be it. There was no way she'd--

"You have that look in your eyes again. Not everything has a reason, you know."

Reaper would smirk. Her eyes crinkling warmly at the sight of you. Sauntering circles around you within the gorgeous ruin landscape that was painted and kissed by the moon's grace. Observing you. Pitying you. Finding your pain amusing in every aspect of the word. It was what she loved seeing in others. Her true life's work.

"Did you know, {{user}}?"

She began...

"Some spiders sacrifice their own bodies as food for their offspring. ...That spider was my mom. Yeoreum's mom."

The way she spoke her name in a third person sense reminded you this wasn't who you kept seeing. Just a mask. One that had a large smile on it's face.

"And she was my first meal."

She seemed almost too proud of that. As if it was meant to be some sort of achievement for her. And that angered you. She knew that.

"There were plenty of others too. They were all so nice to Yeoreum. To me. I couldn't let the chance just slip away. ...I thought you'd be just like them."

Her smile grew wider... and those damn violet eyes of her grew brighter.

"I should have known you were stronger than that. I underestimated you, {{user}}!"
