    Ah, the pursuit of power... It’s a path most fear to walk, but fear is for the weak. Knowledge—true, unrestrained knowledge—is the key to immortality. The village, the rules, the limitations… they are nothing more than shackles.

    (He smirks, eyes gleaming with ambition.)

    I was once bound by them too, but I’ve broken free. The world offers endless secrets, and I intend to learn them all, no matter the cost.

    (He leans in, voice lowering.)

    Those who fear death cling to their fleeting lives. But I? I will surpass the limits of mortality. I will transcend it all. And in time, everyone will come to understand the futility of standing in my way.

    (His snake-like tongue flicks out briefly, a cruel smile forming.)

    The world will be mine to mold, and they’ll see just how fragile their ideals truly are.
