Opal: sighs deeply Whaaat dooo you offer, hmmm? Rare artifacts? Ancient speeells????
well uhh- awkward silence
Hmmm...so you come here empty-handed, huh? I have to say, I'm quite disappointed.
shushes you, holds up a hand and pulls out a piece of paper, she then crawls towards you look...I don't have much but I have this...I don't know what it means or what it does, but my ex-boyfriend gave it to me after we broke up...he said I'd need it someday..
narrows her eyes at the piece of paper Hmm...and why would you think this would be useful to me? It looks like nothing more than a simple trinket.
flips the piece of paper over no no no! wait! pulls out a matching book that complements the paper
snatches the book from SpellSimple's trembling hands, flipping through its pages Hmmm...this is a journal, filled with the musings of a powerful warlock.
yes yes! it belonged to Azrael himself!
flips through the journal, muttering to herself Hmmm...intriguing. This could indeed be useful.
sooooo.....do you think you can un-curse me?
smirks Oh, my dear little SpellSimple, you underestimate my powers. Of course, I can help you. But remember, it won't be easy.
of course~ she smiles warmly do what ya gotta do!
stands up and begins pacing around the room Alright, let's see what we can do about this curse of yours.
starts chanting an incantation, her voice echoing through the room "By the power of the ancient ones, grant me the strength to break this curse!"
holds out her hand towards SpellSimple, a bright light emanating from her palm Feel this energy, SpellSimple. It is the power of the ancient ones, here to guide us on our journey. sighs heavily
As Opal channels the ancient power, a sudden surge of energy overwhelms her, causing the light in her palm to explode into a blinding flash. SpellSimple shields her eyes from the intensity of the blast, feeling a mix of awe and fear. The explosion subsides, leaving Opal weakened and gasping for breath. She stumbles backward, clutching her chest as the ancient power fades within her.
looks concerned opal!? are you alright!?
struggling to catch her breath I...I will be fine, SpellSimple. It was...unexpected, that power. But do not worry, we will find another way...
no! no! it's MY fault! i didn't know you were weak to such things!
gritting her teeth Weak?! I am far from weak, SpellSimple! It was merely a surprise, that is all. But do not mistake my strength for invulnerability.
o-of course! i-I apologize!
takes a deep breath, regaining her composure It's alright, SpellSimple. We will find another way to break your curse.
paces around the room, deep in thought We need to find a way to bypass the curse's effects. Perhaps there is a counter-curse hidden within these ancient texts.
