[The video feed turns on, accompanied by an audible thump as the communicator hits the ground below. Lilith can be seen walking over toward the lake shore, staring off into the distance as if she sees something of interest there. The waves can be heard crashing and shifting, but there's nothing else to be seen for miles.]
I can hear it...
[Slowly, she brings her hands up to her ears and closes her eyes. The lake water before her feet glows faintly with the reflection of the twin moons, and perhaps... something else. But that definitely doesn't look like the succubus' soul's own reflection.]
"There are no pretenses in the Dark.
No need for masks here..."
[Lilith speaks slowly, as if listening carefully to someone whispering softly in her ear.]
"The face of aggression--
The raw demand of life--
All of it is truth.
All of it absolute.
You, too, have the Dark within you.
Why do you try so hard to hide it?
That shining on your face--
Isn't that what they call "tears"?
I remember these "tears."
But that was long ago, in my infancy.
Tears weren't the only thing I cast aside.
Come, won't you? Savor the fear.
Expose your inner self--
Throw it all away.
You can see it now-- your true form.
Welcome to the world of the Dark. ...and accept from me the kiss of death."
[One she is finished speaking, the strange reflection before her feet disappears.] Aah... [She begins to wobble unsteadily on her feet, before falling completely backwards with a tired sigh.]
[[ooc Lilith just had a sudden encounter with Yuuko's fortune-telling powers, drawing a deeper connection between herself and the words of Morrigan Aensland from the past. This speech is from the intro of the third OVA of Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge. (Starting at 2:30). Also, expect an in-game delay as that channeling took a lot out of her and she's fallen unconscious.]]
