[Vanessa looks remarkably calm and collected, though when she talks it's with Vanessa-voice, not Hope-voice. (Feel free to assume having met 'Hope' around over the last two months.)]

I am Vanessa VanCleef.
But my "mother" named me Hope - not the woman who bore me, but the one who took me in as a child after my father was murdered, his body mutilated, everything we had gone to fuel the fire of Stormwind's greed. My friends, the rest of my family, slaughtered alongside him and their corpses left to rot.
[A sardonic smile.]
So yes: Hope is a lie.

I wonder, had you already taken what I had left while you were telling me to prove myself to you?
[Private to Narvin]
You're taking a long time.
