This is an idea that popped into my head a while back and I finally around to writing it. That said it's more or less a prototype of hopefully something bigger.

Hope you enjoy.


"What do we have here? A first timer huh? Well come on in, take a seat and let me get a good look at you."

"Oh yes it's definitely your first time here - I can tell just by looking at you."

"Me? You wanna know who I am? … well that's a bit of a tough question. I'm like you in a sense; I'm not really anyone. I'm neither living, dead nor undead. Like you I don't even have a name, but everyone who comes here just calls me the Contractor. That said, what do you say we get down to business?"

"Well I am a contractor, it's what I do, I make contracts with others, be they living, dead, undead, or like us. Forge a contract with me I can grant you anything. Money, women, a chance to turn back time, limitless power, name it. I can give it to you. For a short while anyway."

"Well you didn't think I'd forge potentially reality warping contracts that last forever did you? No they're totally temporary. They exist so long as the contract is in effect. Soon as they're done, well everything goes back to normal, everything in reality resets to the moment the contract was first made leaving no one the wiser, and everything you did gets voided and none are the wiser. So what do you say, interested in forging a contract with me?

Haha, I figured as much. Now I already know what you want, I want you to say it. It's no fun any other way."

There we go, that wasn't too hard. Now…?"

"What do I get out of it? … Well that's simple, and nothing for you to really worry about. Now if you're worried about me taking your life or anything when the contract expires, don't worry I don't do that. Now than… where to send you though… just look at this list and tell me where to want to go."

"Yharnam? You want to go… to Yharnam? … Hahahahahaha! Right, right first time, and you've never been to Yharmin so it makes sense."

"Oh there's nothing too bad about Yharnam. It's actually pretty nice this time of year. Usually a quiet place too, especially when the sun goes down. Don't grow too used to it though, it's always quiet before the screaming starts. After all, Yharnam's become home to beasts that like wandering about, and some of em happen looking like everyday folks.

Ohh~ scary thought isn't it?"

"… What? Your not scared? Hahaha! Course your not scared, at least not yet. You've never been there after all, you've never been anywhere for that matter. Alright let's change that, shall we?

I'll drop you off at Yharnam and you can see what it's like. Course if I'm gonna do that, you're gonna need a couple things first."

First you'll need a bit of that good old Yharnam blood pumping in your veins. The second, well you'll need a name won't you? Lastly you'll need a contract. Don't worry, I'll get everything ready, but about that name, either I can give you one or you can make one up for yourself."

"Eh that's not a bad one, I've heard worse. Now… here you go. Sign here… and take this. This is proof of our contract."

"Good. Now let's get this show started. Oh and before I forget; our contract will end under one or two conditions. You die, or the proof of our contract breaks while in your possession. Simple right? Good. Now do be careful, the bells are ringing tonight."
