It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Grog Strongjaw, a goliath barbarian . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, They stumbled upon a small hive of basilisks that surrounded an obelisk of Ioun, which gave them their first clue as to the location where this sphinx could be found. They battled the basilisks, destroyed their underground hive, or at least the exit from it, via Fireballs and Stone Walls and other such endeavors.
DM: Okay. So we'll go ahead and take a break as the party is resting for the evening, we'll be back here in a few minutes, guys, to continue this next chapter of Vox Machina's adventure. All right, see you in a little bit. [break] Hey guys, welcome back. So. Kicking into high gear to return to the game as it's going. You guys go through your restful evening, except for Grog, resting up and getting prepared for whatever comes your way, except for Grog. As you spend the night fending off sleep, staring at Craven Edge there on your lap, feeling the cold blade against your fingertips and considering and still feeling the strength that it's imbued upon you pulsing through your veins.
Player: Yeah, could I ask it one question?
DM: Yeah, yeah.
Player: Right, it was a good day, right? Like, superb.
DM: "Yes."
Player: Do you remember your former owners?
DM: "I do."
Player: Do you remember Lord Briarwood?
DM: "I do."
Player: How was he?
DM: "He was a stalwart champion. He kept me fed. Mostly."
Player: Did he give you a goal? You know, before we put him into different pieces, he was, like, trying to build up this god called Vecna. You don't know anything about a god called Vecna, do you?
DM: "Doesn't interest me."
Player: No?
DM: "No."
Player: Just the blood.
DM: "Just the hunger."
Player: Right, the hunger.
DM: "It's all there is, is the hunger."
Player: But look, we did really good today. So I'm not going to go to sleep, I'm going to carry this over the next day, I want to see how hard we can push this.
DM: "So close to being full."
Player: You're close to being full? Hold on, how many more lives do you need?
DM: "I'm close."
Player: Do you know, do you know what happens when you get full? Like, do you get bigger? Do I get stronger?
DM: "Feed me and you'll find out."
