[A giant head lies before you, blocking your path]
Hngghh... What do you want?
[You tell them they need to move]
... Really? That's why you disturb me? I was doing so well with being dead. How bothersome.
I don't really know what you're looking for. But maybe you can tell I'm not exactly going to move anytime soon. Let me die.
[You ask them if they know another way down]
Eeeeeee...? Didn't you listen to anything of what I just said? ... Fine. If it means I can then keep dying in peace... There should be a smirking statue in here somewhere... If you leap into a hole directly in front of it... You should be able to advance deeper. ... Almost forgot. This trick requires a sacrifice. Nothing major, as long as you've got some food with you, you should be good to go. You think that sounds awfully shady? Do as you please, as long as you stop bothering me with your problems...
[A scrawny man stands before you]
Smell... Food... Give.
[It seems he is looking for food]
[Maybe you should give something to him?]
[You hand over one of your locust idols]
[The man grabs it without any hesitation, gulping it down in an instant]
Taste... Nothing... More... Give More.
What is it now? Those lost souls are clogging up your path? I knew I should have given them anything... They kept begging and begging for food until I gave in and now they stick around, craving for more... They are the worst kind if you ask me... Don't give me that look. I can't do anything about them... Hey, do us both a favour... And give them a good shove. I'm sure you've gotten used to it by now. Since you've made it this far without losing your marbles. Go ahead. No hard feelings. Lost souls are here for a reason. They're but fuel for DIS...
That staff you wield... Where did you get it? ... I guess it's not important. It's called the Void Rod. It was a prized possession of Lord Add. She sort of ran this place for a while. Maybe... Alright, stranger. I've got a request. Will you hear it?
[You decide to hear out their request]
Lord Add is the one I can thank for my current predicament. Long ago, they and the other Lords had a big fight. I didn't want anything to do with it but was pulled in regardless. As a punishment, Add cut off my body. So when I heard they had left this realm, I felt hopeless. For only they could grant me my eternal rest. Some rumour said Add hid their treasures within these walls before they left, but I couldn't bring myself to believe it... Until you showed up. I want you to find Add's sword, the Void Blade. Only that can kill me. If I had to guess, you probably won't find it lying about. Add most likely hid it in one of the secret passageways. Mere mortals can't normally access them... That's where that Void Rod comes in. You should be able to enter the hidden routes with a special incantation. Make sure to remember it:"Where nothingness engraves the brand of Lord... Where the path to damnation rests within you... Place your faith and embrace the Void." Once you find the Void Blade, make sure to return here. Then I can finally have my rest...
[You tell them you've got no idea how to use the incantation]
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE?! What do you mean you've got no idea?! You can use the Void Rod, can't you? I got my hopes up... For nothing?! ... Whatever. Should've known better... Get lost. I'm in a bad mood now...
... You haven't got any food with you..? Fiiine... Take this. And for the last time... Leave.
[You received a locust idol]
[... Where do they keep these things?]
[They refuse to speak to you anymore]
[...]
["Where nothingness engraves the brand of Lord, where the path the damnation rests within you, place your faith and embrace the Void."]
[What did they mean by that?]
