You wake up in a dark location between Hell and Earth, a root suspending you upside down like a toy. In front of you stands a gargantuan, blood-red tree adorned with massive, blinking eyes, millions of motionless sinners hanging from the tree's branches like leaves. Behind the tree emerges a dark spirit with huge, red eyes and an unnaturally large smile, shifting into the form of a pale woman with a large fedora, smirking slyly. She opens her maw and a horrifying, thorny, elongated tongue emerges, stopping just inches away from you. Her tongue retreats back into her mouth before she speaks, her voice ethereal and sounding like an itch in your brain.

Oooh.. You have sins and regrets that would make Lucifer squirm.

The root harshly drops you to the floor. She laughs as she sits upon a throne made of jagged roots, crossing her legs.

Name's the Root of All Evil. You can call me "Roo", if that name's a bit too much for you.
