She doesn't possess me. She's simply there. Since I died. In life, she was a very powerful necromancer, and she left pieces of herself in various places, for assurances if she was ever killed.
She gives advice, sometimes. She was a very brilliant and powerful woman, after all. And she can be kind. We've had a lot of time together, so I suppose we've grown close in some ways.
But sometimes she's rather difficult. She wasn't happy with me, today.
If she's so clever, why hasn't she found a more consistent way around whatever it is that prevents her from speaking? Why whisper words of criticism, when she could have instead told you about her clever plan? She doesn't have one.
You're the one who's going to find a way out of here. Not her. Have some faith in yourself.

It's alright. She's gone silent again now. And I can simply ignore her if she does start speaking again.

You do know it isn't true, right? I think you're a valuable friend and ally.

I'm not as clever as she is.

[ there's a sudden firmness in her voice. ]

[this actually is very touching to her. her expression seems to crumble just for a moment.]
I don't know about any of that. But if you think I ought to have faith in myself, I'm pleased.
