So this is Edgar's soul? His very being? Huh, I didn't expect it to look so... scarred. The area is filled with jagged rocks and green water that looks like if I drank it, I'd die on the spot. An unsettling ambiance fills the air, with a depressing piano played under it. I see Edgar, still missing an arm, ink oozing from his wound. His breathing is paniced, fast, unnerved.

Edgar!

Abby? What are you doing here?

I came to help you! Look at yourself! You have to stop! Please, just take a break from writing and be a character.

Edgar glares with his black, weary eyes. He seems enraged by my request.

How many times do I have to say it? I DON'T NEED HELP! I don't need you, I don't need anyone! I will stay strong! If I look weak, they'll kill Gen!

What's the point of being strong if you die from doing so?

Will you shut up!?! I have to keep writing, before the itching comes back.

Edgar, you can stop this. You don't have to be a demon. You can be happy.

You really don't get it, do you Abby?

Edgar suddenly falls to his knees.

Oh pen, Abby run!

Edgar melts into green water, a demonic version of him, his other form, emerges from the depths.

Write.

The demon approaches, I prepare for combat. The ambiance becomes hostile and aggressive in tone.

Write!

WRITE!

WRITE!!!

Something returns the demon to the depths. Edgar reappears, he vomits ink. The depressing piano continues.

Don't you see? I write, that's all I am. You can be a character if you want Abby, but I have a role to fulfill. LET ME BE STRONG!

You aren't strong!

Excuse me?

Look at yourself! You're surrendering to your dark side. How does that make you strong?

Cause my dark side, has no feelings for you. You are to enter book three, or face my wrath.

I won't abandon you!

If I kill you, the demon will work out a deal to finish the job. Are you certian?

Yes.

So be it, but know this.

Ink rushes in from all directions, filling the area.

I will show no mercy to those in my way.

Ink surrounds me now, I can't see, I can't breath, I'm drowning. I'm gonna die and he's gonna erase me. I'm...

I wake up. Oh, right, all in his soul. Guess I best prepare. I must stop Edgar, for his own good...
