Dialogue
Vilmor joins you as Guest A.
*You and Vilmor are still in the Hollow hive inside the mountain; you fight various Hollows.*
<Character>: This far in, the air should be thick with spores already. Not that I'm complaining, but it's different., Vilmor: This layer is barely releasing any. Even the dead fungus looks more... healthy than this.
<Character>: Maybe it's starving? It's cut off from the source through the Rift, after all., Vilmor: Good thinking. But it's still developing, which means it's feeding somehow. Watch your step.
Vilmor: So many of these...
Vilmor: Are you sure you want to continue, Cryozen? You can wait here, if you want., Cryozen: *Soft, but determined chirp*
*Eventually, you, your dragon, Vilmor, and Cryozen have reached the source of the Hollow hive, signified by the frozen dragon bones and a big Hollow pool.*
Vilmor: If this is the source...
<Character>: There's no way this is just a patch that caught enough prey to stay alive.
Vilmor: He's been feeding it.
*Cryozen looks at the dragon bones, causing him to be worried.*
Cryozen: This place is wrong... | *Worried grumbling*
<Dragon>: Are you gonna be alright? | *Concerned chirp*
*Suddenly, Frostscythe appears as he survived and became a part of the Hollow; he is surprised that Vilmor is here.*
Frostscythe: How are you here?!
Vilmor: You survived.
*Vilmor looks at the parts of the source: the frozen dragon bones, the big Hollow pool, and the growing Hollow tangles; it is clear that Frostscythe is growing the Hollow hive by feeding the dragon bones; scene then focuses back on Frostscythe.*
Frostscythe: You sound disappointed. After you had so much handed to you on a silver platter... Did you expect my death on one too?
Vilmor: No. I'll gladly work for it.
<Character>: Vilmor, wait!
Vilmor: Don't you dare, <Character>... You SAW what he did.
<Character>: I know, Vilmor... He's buying time, but we need to know if this is the only hive. Be ready, but let me get him talking.
Frostscythe: And what are you here for? Getting in on her revenge? Couldn't let someone else take your chance at stealing my glory?
<Character>: I could ask the same of you. You're feeding a piece of something that even the DragonLords couldn't contain. You think it won't eat you too?
Frostscythe: It already tried. Choked me with its spores, dragged me to its pods... But I took what I needed from it. And ever since...
Frostscythe: We want the same thing.
Frostscythe: I give it what it can't take, and make it build what I want. Once I have it, I'll make another hive. And another.
Frostscythe: I was hoping to show you after it consumed Aisha, but—
<Character>: That's all I needed to know. Let's drag this failure out of here.
Vilmor: Finally.
Frostscythe: I. AM NOT. A FAILURE!
*Now angry, Frostscythe summons a Hollow copy of the old Cryozen from the Hollow pool, causing Vilmor and Cryzoen Jr. to be panicked.*
Vilmor: What...
Cryozen: That's... That's not me! That's not me! I'm... I'm burning up... | *Panicked roaring*
<Dragon>: Stay with me! We'll take this thing out together! | *Comforting chirps and encouraging roar*
Vilmor: That's it! <Character>! We're doing this!

*Scene cuts to black.*
