The second page in the series. The story is a pretty rough draft so bear with me here and I'll make fixes to it over time. Feedback's always greatly appreciated so feel free to let me know how good or bad I did. Thanks!

With her eyes shut and all of her mind focused on the pain of her injury, Kale had let her guard down and when the voice prompted her to open them they were met with dense fog all around and a pair of ethereal blue orbs gazing down into her very core. "It's nice to finally meet a creature that isn't obsessed with fucking and killing."
Its tone was as smooth and subtle as the ivory vapor that it was composed of.
All Kale could do was pant in agony and stare at this being, too wary and baffled by its presence to say anything.
"I watched your performance against those imps back there and I must applaud you for your spectacular performance. It's a shame that last one managed to lay a hit on you after you did so well."
"Yes well, dwelling on it won't help me right now." Kale finally replied.
"You haven't killed or fucked me yet so may I ask who you are and what you want from me?"
The being in front of her scoffed. "Well spoken. Not what I was expecting from someone bleeding out though. It'd take a while to explain exactly who I am and from the looks of that wound I don't think you have a while. Maybe you'd like to hear my story after I help you with your problem?"
It's a huge wonder what this creature's real motives are but the agony of Kale's affliction was impairing her thinking too much for her to ask.
"Please. Anything to stop the pain."
"Well alright then! You're going to need to stand up first. It'll help with removing the armor."
Groaning in pain, Kale shifted herself slowly upward while a pair of clawed hands appeared around her waist to help bring her up. Their digits were freezing, emitting a chill that overtook her whole body as she was lifted. As a result the pain in her abdomen diminished a bit.
"The nearest healers are too far away to offer their help, and I can stop the bleeding and make all the pain go away; even make you much stronger than you were before. But I'm not sure if you'll like it."
There was a pause. Kale looked apprehensively at the creature keeping her upright.
"It involves me literally going through your body and reconstructing it using my own essence to do it. And what that entails is you becoming the living embodiment of what I once was before I died."
Kale figured this thing was a ghost w but it was still a little overwhelming after having gone from being oblivious to the supernatural days earlier to having crossed dimensions and being attacked by biblical demons.
"And what's that?"
