What do you mean?

"I mean, your wife's been watching, too. Oh, and so have your daughters. You should know that nothing you do will ever make them respect you again. You're worthless to them, and they say that they're better off without you."

That pierces your soul. The wind is taken out of your sail as your head hangs down in dismay. A prominent ache wells up in your chest as you learn you've been caught. The choices you made were being observed the whole time. Your depraved escapades led to your family all but disowning you.

However, there is an unexpected tingle in your groin from the depravity of being caught doing emasculating, humiliating things by your entire family. Your "manhood" perks up at the fantasy that your wife has witnessed every last degrading act you committed. Your daughters saw their father as the weak, pathetic man he really is.

"But why take my word for it? Don't you wanna see 'em yourself?"

A brief glimmer of hope lifts your clouded thoughts. Maybe the imp is lying! Finally, you have the opportunity to redeem yourself, to become the protector of your family.

"Just go through the portal."

As tempting as it sounds, you know that if you leave, there is no chance you'll be returning. What about the artifact? Would the imp really take it for himself if you were out of his way? Why did you go through the trouble if you weren't going to take it home with you?
