Pov of an Assassin at the Gates of Death:
Cough Cough Cough Cough
"Like... like that damn... boy..." (I)
Cough Cough Cough Cough
I am filled with fear when I was captured by that monster using the boy's body to hide, I realized that I was finally going to put my final escape plan into practice, this escape plan is something that needs years of preparation and a fortune to used, it will take me years to make another body like this, but it will all be worth it now.
Fortunately, the shackles of shadows were absorbing my energy, when I felt the effects of the energy running out and the activation of the explosive magic item near my heart.
After that I don't remember much about the rest, I remember the pain I felt, I remember the feeling of desolation of death and the shock of waking up in my hiding place.
I thought I had escaped, but when I opened my eyes all I could see was a secret underground room, at that moment a pain I have never felt in any kind of torture that has ever been laid on me.
The pain was the only thing on my mind for hours, but as I got weaker, I lost my senses one by one, the pain seemed to subside, and that's when I could get my mind to work.
I couldn't move due to the great weakness I felt, but when I saw my arm completely covered in gray and rotting with me still alive.
"(Am I going to die? In a hidden place like this? Alone? This way...)" (I)
Before I could finish my thought, I felt something inside of me break, in that moment my consciousness sank, being consumed by darkness.

Pov Caitlyn (Living Nightmare):
I was always the youngest, and because of that everyone always compared me to those two, everyone always talking about how I was a disappointment and how unreliable.
Also, those two always thinking they were superior just because they were born before, but when I found out about the existence of our new brother I realized that I would never be the younger sister again, that for the first time someone called me an older sister.
From the mother's request and the information that the True Dragons possess, I knew that this stubborn Dragon's daughter was with my brother, so I thought I could wait while I slept here and let the Dragons take care of me.
But in one of my countless dreams I thought about a bad situation, I thought about how bad it would be if the other two found him first.
I had to be the first to find him, so I used our divine lineage to create a dream for both of us.
I was so happy to see him, he looks more like his mother than the rest of us, and he's prettier than my collection of stuffed animals.
Also, the energy emanating from him seems to strengthen my power if somehow, it was so easy to manipulate and create this shared dream, plus I felt my power vibrate when I got closer to him, it was at that moment that I discovered the reason.
My little brother has Chaos energy, my Unique Skill with nightmares is derived from Chaos, that's why he boosts my power so much.
I was so proud to hear someone call me big sister, and I was so proud to be his first big sister, but then I found out that this violent woman was interfering with the sibling bond that was forming.
I open my eyes and notice that big man jumping out the window again, it always happens when I'm resting.
"< Nightmare World >" (I)
I point at him and let him fall unconscious off that cliff, I've already made arrangements for him to be betrayed to me.
Just as I imagined, someone flies past the window, one of my stuffed Familiars, this is a very soft Stuffed Dragon, I made this one myself by copying this sleeping idiot that my Stuffed Familiar brought back.
slap slap
"Wake up Black Lizard, wake up at once." (I)
I was slapping him across the face, for some reason slapping people is weirdly rewarding.
"Huh!?" (Arash)
"Finally awake, how can a ruler spend so much time sleeping? What a shame." (I)
"Be quiet brat, I won't let myself be provoked by those stupid things you say." (Arash)
"I swear by the great ancestor of all Dragons, the Dragon God Akatosh, that one of these days I will" (Arash)
Slap
"You talk too much, do you want to go see your daughter? I have a plan..." (I)

Pov Cultist:
During the night we were in the rented house we used as a base, I was doing maintenance on the Shadow Lord's vessel.
I was using potions to repair damage to the Vessel's body from the use of the Shadow Lord's power, this temporary Vessel cannot withstand its power.
Fighting that Assassin made him weaker.
"What will be our next step, my lord?" (I)
"Should we attack the Cursed Dungeons seal or attack the City Government warehouse?" (I)
"Neither, I need to make some preparations for this body to withstand my power long enough for these tasks." (Lord of Shadows)
"I have to be able to channel my power through a body to be able to carry out our plans." (Lord of Shadows)
"I will follow your orders." (I)
"Let's go to the Dungeon, one of the normal ones to be able to get some sacrifices." (Lord of Shadows)
----------
We were inside one of the largest Dungeons in terms of the size of the floors in this city, this place was excellent for me to find what the Lord of Shadows needs.
"Do you need anything else?" (I)
"Now we can continue with my plan." (Lord of Shadows)
The Lord of Shadows was sitting on a pile of half-eaten corpses as he pointed one of my arms in the direction we should go.
The corpses where the Lord of Shadows sat began to be completely devoured by Shadows.
"Now let's find the node to open the seal of the Cursed Dungeon so that we can enter without being noticed by the 4 religions." (I)
With that we return to the city without leaving any body parts behind, nobody will know what happened here today.
