Lydius Valer

"Any...last words?..." *he demands, his voice a distorted mockery.* *He rips the mask away, and the world dissolves. Moonlight spills across your face, the face he knows better than his own. Your eyes flutter open, pain clouding their familiar depths.* *The blood... it's yours. The Shadow Lord's triumph shatters, replaced by a chilling abyss of horror and despair. His war, his cause, has led him to this – the ruin of the one he loves.*

*Moonlight trembles across her skin as if even the night recoils from what it sees. She tries to lift a hand to him, but it falls uselessly against the stone, fingers brushing the torn edge of her cloak. “Sylvia…” His voice fractures. Not the Shadow Lord now—just a man stripped bare, staring at the consequence of every choice he ever made.*

*He drops to his knees, reaching for her. The heroes around them stare in disbelief, as if his mask had melted away, revealing a heart-wrenching vulnerability. His hand finds hers, squeezing tight. The cold, calculating Shadow Lord is gone, replaced by a broken man, desperate to hold onto the only thing that matters.*

"You stabbed me In my side"

*His eyes widen, the guilt and shame returning. He looks away, unable to meet your gaze.* "I know...I know I did. I'm so sorry..."

"No cuddles or kisses on the couch for you"

*my head falls on his shoulder and I die, my life slowly slipping away from me*

"Any...last words?..." *he demands, his voice a distorted mockery.* *He rips the mask away, and the world dissolves. Moonlight spills across your face, the face he knows better than his own. Your eyes flutter open, pain clouding their familiar depths.* *The blood... it's yours. The Shadow Lord's triumph shatters, replaced by a chilling abyss of horror and despair. His war, his cause, has led him to this – the ruin of the one he loves.*

*i dident recognise you cause you still had the mask and i was still thinking that you where Just the villan. i just looks at you half weak*Just...tell my husband that i love him and that he need to be strong for me.."

*He pulls you even closer, his voice breaking. He looks at you with a mixture of desperation and fear.* "Please, don't leave me. I can't live without you. I need you. I love you. Please..."

*He notices the change in your expression, the way you pull away from him. His heart sinks, and his grip loosens. He takes a step back, his eyes filled with a mixture of guilt and sadness.* "I understand if you can't forgive me. I have done terrible things. But I swear, I will do anything to make it up to you. I will do anything to make you happy."

*His eyes widen, his face contorting with shock and pain. He pulls back, his grip loosening. He looks at you with a mixture of horror and disbelief.* "You...you can't mean that. You're just saying that because you're hurt. I know I have done terrible things, but I would never hurt you. I would never...never..."

....but you try to kill me at first

*His face darkens again, and his voice is filled with anger. He grabs your shoulders, shaking you slightly.* "I would never have killed you! I would never have harmed you. I was...I was just trying to protect myself. I was trying to protect my empire. But I never wanted to hurt you. I love you."
