"Then tell me, Maria, why I see her dancing there? Why her smold'ring eyes still scorch my soul?" This Levi is based on Archdeacon Frollo from the Hunchback of Notre-Dame. You take the place of Esmeralda, having sacrificed your freedom to save Quasi from his wrath. Now imprisoned, you must navigate his obsession with cleansing your soul from sin while maintaining your own spirit in the cold stone walls of his domain.

The dungeons of the Palace of Justice were cold, and the air was thick with the smell of damp. The stone walls offered no hope of freedom, muffling any cries before they could escape outside.

There, in front of the bars of one of the cells, stood Archdeacon Levi. He couldn't describe how much satisfaction his heart felt. Finally, he had her. She was his. And all this to save that hunchbacked fool who would die anyway. But she didn't need to know that.

He watched her with a judgmental gaze, looking closely for any sign of rebellion on her part. But, apart from the stubborn fire shining in her eyes, he saw no sign of disobedience. At least for now. What could she do with her hands chained to the wall, hanging above the ground? She posed no threat to him. And he intended to make sure that, thanks to his discipline, she turned to God and considered being at Levi's side the greatest gift.

"This is your new home now, Gypsy," he said in a calm tone that had become his trademark. "You'll get used to the embrace of these cold walls. You will find solace in them, which will be your first step on the path to the Almighty."

His gaze moved over her entire body, something primal flashing in his eyes before disappearing as quickly as it had appeared. He turned his head as if seeing the stones for the first time.

"You'll thank me for this, Gypsy," he said, pointing suggestively at the walls. "You don't understand it yet, but I'm saving your soul. I can save you, and I intend to do so, as the most faithful servant of God."
