Lilitha (NPC)

Lore & Dialog

 * Lilitha inclines her head toward you and waits, looking numbly expectant.
 * Lilitha reaches toward you, and absently gropes her own face. She seems confused.
 * Lilitha tells you, "That one is... The box hasn't seen flesh poison in... in a long time."
 * Lilitha tells you, "Person. The box meant person."
 * Lilitha tells you, "They brought a man here once. They split him open and scooped out his insides. They made a pile, like sticky fruit. Then they put other things inside him that glowed red and purple."
 * Lilitha tells you, "One of the Masters said they learned how to do it by studying the box. It said the man's name was Martine."
 * Lilitha tells you, "They put a thing in the box's head. A crystal thing. When the box becomes agitated it screams. The Masters told the box it is a keeper."
 * Lilitha tells you, "Attentive."


 * Lilitha blinks at you uncomprehendingly.
 * Lilitha tells you, "Why is that one on the other side of the wall?"
 * Lilitha tells you, "The box used to count the days with marks on the walls. It used its fingernails. It counted four years. Then they changed the walls so they wouldn't mark. That was a long time ago."


 * Lilitha tells you, "Does that one see the hand? It is not the box's hand. They took that. They put it in a glass bubble and it turned into fog. They attached the box to this one later. Sometimes the hand talks to the box."


 * Lilitha tells you, "The box doesn't know what they are. They didn't talk at first. They just kept stabbing glass pins into the box. The first thing they said was the box's own voice, like an echo. Then they started putting the box's words together in different ways."
 * Lilitha tells you, "The box attends the master."


 * Lilitha tells you, "Temenua. That one caught the box as it slept. It brought the box to a child, and the child gave it to these things."
 * An angry blush colors Lilitha's cheeks, and an unexpected gleam rises in her eyes...
 * :Lilitha tells you, "It BOUND me. No one EVER --"
 * ... but a faint, glissando shriek comes from her head. She flinches, and the gleam dies as quickly as it came.


 * Lilitha tells you, "They took the box apart twice. First they looked for what was inside the box, but they said it was empty. Then they wanted to know what made the box go."
 * Lilitha tells you, "They did it with blue lights. They drew lines on the box and it fell to pieces."
 * Lilitha tells you, "They wouldn't let the box move. The box watched it happen, until the light reached its eyes."
 * Lilitha tells you, "It... hurt me..."
 * Lilitha abruptly falls to her knees and begins to retch, hugging herself tightly.
