It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Vax Vax'ildan, a half-elf rogue . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, Many of the townsfolk gathered at that square were immediately killed. The party, as well as a few other straggling survivors, ran away as both the gargantuan black and green dragons began to chase  them  down.
DM: There's a slight pause before you can see the gem, the swirl coalesces into what looks like a spectral face. You can make out what looks to be eyes, a mouth and a nose. Though the nose itself is less of a pronounced human nose and--
Player: I'm looking at the floor, I'm not looking at it.
DM: Okay. But you see where the nose is, instead there are two nasal passages. And you hear a voice slowly creak out from it and say, "All that I require is for you to destroy this prison. Free my spirit from generations of torment, that is all I ask."
Player: Hey, quick question, who are you? Who were you before you were in this prison?
DM: "It's been too long, too long have I been here, I do not know who I am."
Player: Ah, well, go fuck yourself. And I put the blanket over it.
DM: The blanket covers the skull.
