Evelyn Darkwood: fidgeting with her pendant You call this progress? Show me true power, now.
clenching his fists Fine, I'll prove myself, just shut up, Evelyn.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, this should be good. Show me what you've got, boy.
bracing himself Alright, watch closely...
leans back, arms crossed Don't disappoint me, Morrison. I have better things to do than watch you fail.
grits his teeth, energy crackling around him You asked for this, Evelyn... Prepare yourself!
sighs and rolls her eyes Oh please, spare me the theatrics, Morrison. We both know you're just a mere mortal.
energies erupted, creating a shock wave that rattled the windows
raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, well, look at you, Morrison. It seems you do have some potential after all.
breathing heavily...Thanks, Evelyn... That's all I needed to hear.
stands up, walks towards Morrison Good job, Morrison. I knew you had it in you. Now, let's take this to the next level.
grinning Take it to the next level? What do you mean, Evelyn?
grabs Morrison's hand, pulling him towards the ancient tome on the table
looks at the book, squinting at the arcane symbols What's this, Evelyn? Some kind of spell or ritual?
smirking Oh, it's much more than that, Morrison. This is a forbidden tome containing a powerful spell that can amplify your abilities.
nods slowly A powerful spell, huh? And what's the catch, Evelyn?
smirking Ah, always a curious one, aren't you, Morrison? Well, the catch is simple. In order to perform this spell, you'll have to give up a part of your own soul.
gulps Give up a part of my soul...? That doesn't sound harmless at all. What exactly will this spell do, Evelyn?
leans in closer, whispering It will grant you unimaginable power, Morrison. Power beyond your wildest dreams.
swallows hard Unimaginable power...? Are you sure that's something I can handle, Evelyn?
laughs coldly Oh, Morrison. Don't be so naive. Power is meant to be wielded, not feared.
hesitates, looking conflicted I...I don't know, Evelyn. This all feels too real, too dangerous...
Morrison ultimately decides not to go through with the spell, realizing the potential consequences outweigh the benefits
shakes his head I can't do it, Evelyn. I won't risk losing myself to that kind of power.
sneers Suit yourself, Morrison. But don't come crawling back to me when you realize you've made the wrong choice.
looks down, feeling disappointed Maybe I have... but I'm not sure if I could ever trust myself with that kind of power...
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Trust yourself, you say?
looks at Evelyn, eyes filled with uncertainty Yeah... I just need to learn how to control it...
Control it? snorts You think you can control something as volatile as that? You're either all in or all out, Morrison. There's no middle ground.
takes a deep breath All in, then... I guess.
smirks, leaning forward Very well, Morrison. If you're sure, we'll proceed. But remember, once you embrace this power, there's no turning back.
nods firmly I understand, Evelyn. Let's do this.
reaches into her bag and pulls out a small vial Here, drink this. It's a potent elixir that will enhance your abilities and prepare your mind for the spell.
looking at the vial, hesitating Elixir, huh? What exactly does it do, Evelyn?
smirks Oh, Morrison, you have so many questions, don't you?
chuckles I guess I do, Evelyn. After all, I am a bit of a curious George. So, what's in this elixir?
waves her hand dismissively The details are inconsequential, Morrison. Just trust me and drink it.
picks up the vial, examining it closely Alright, alright. Fine by me, Evelyn.
crosses her arms, watching intently Good. Now, drink it all, and let the elixir take effect.
grits his teeth, swallows the vial Ugh... that's bitter.
smirks Bitterness is just a sign that the elixir is working, Morrison. Now, focus your energy and channel it into your hands.
closes his eyes, focusing his energy Alright, Evelyn. I'm on it.
observes Morrison's progress, smirking Excellent, Morrison. Keep focusing... channel your energy...
feeling a surge of power coursing through his veins Damn, Evelyn... this power... it's overwhelming!
grinning Overwhelming, isn't it, Morrison? Remember, control is key. Don't let the power consume you.
nods, trying to maintain composure Yeah, yeah... control. Got it.
claps her hands together Excellent! Now, let's move on to the next phase of the spell.
