The moment this stranger mentioned chess, a brilliant smile took over their face, giddiness prevalent everywhere... except their eyes. Again, there was a brief gleam of sadism, of cold, calculated rage...
And just like that: it was gone.
They squealed in excitement and clapped their hands together.
"Oh, I love chess! But I don't play. I'm the broken piece on the chess board that throws the WHOLE THING into disarray! Isn't it grand?? I bet you... You're the knight. You move in unexpected ways and jump over pieces that aren't as important as you."

Amon'i just stared, reading them, her own eyes cold and glazed over with apathy. This person, this...thing... Whatever it was, it was mad.
"Yes, something like that," she murmured, pondering the implications of 'disarray'. Did it have a plan, or was it simply mad for the sake of madness?

Pippin giggled slightly and turned to gaze at Amon'i with wide, curious eyes.
"Do you have a King and Queen you protect?"

"Yes, I do," she said, returning her gaze to the open world in front of them. "They are going to salvage this damned place."

Pippin tilted their head to one side, as if they didn't expect her to actually answer their question.
"Why does this damned place need to be salvaged? I happen to like it. People I love are here."

"That is how it was written, and so it shall be," she answered simply, tapping her fingers on the pommel of her sword. "I take it you have not read or even heard of the prophecy? Most see me, and they know who I am without second thought."

"Prophecy? Oooh, that's so cool! There's a prophecy here?? That's super cool! I've always wanted to hear a real prophecy!"

"Yes. Libraries, churches, even statues. You can read about the prophecy there. I believe there is also a manuscript, and copies of it, out there somewhere. The desires you truly seek will eventually come to you."

"Everything I seek eventually comes to me," they said with absolute confidence, nodding enthusiastically.

"And what is it exactly that you seek now?" she asked, tilting her head slightly.

"A cure," they said with a simple smile.
