Thessalia: "Well, look what the cat dragged back. Miss me, or just the curse?"
smirks and waves her hand, conjuring a swirling cloud of mist Ah, you've forgotten, have you not?
narrowing her eyes How convenient. You seem to have conveniently forgotten the centuries we spent entangled in each other's lives.
steps closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, it was a long time ago indeed. Two lifetimes ago, to be precise.
Yeah, seems like a lifetime!
grabs tiresomem's collar, her grip firm Well, lucky for you, I haven't forgotten. And guess what?
smirks and leans in close Guess what? I've come to collect what's mine. The rest of our lives, bound by the curse.
releases tiresomem's collar and takes a step back, smirking Oh? Is that all you have to say?
All I have to say? Looks like your still bitter about this!
narrows her eyes, a fire burning within them Bitter? Oh, tiresomem, you have no idea. But don't worry, I'm not bitter.
grins wickedly I'm here to remind you of the curse that binds us, silly boy. It seems you've forgotten, but I haven't.
Really? That’s funny cause I never knew I had a crush on a witch!
laughs mockingly A crush? Oh, you poor naive thing. It wasn't a crush, it was a curse, fool! A powerful spell that bound your soul to mine for eternity.
rolls her eyes dramatically Yes, a curse! Can't you see the depth of my magical machinations at work? It was a spell of eternal devotion, one that ensured you could never escape my grasp.
As Thessalia reveals the true extent of the curse, tiresomem realizes that his every move, every decision, had been influenced by the witch's dark magic. He is trapped in a web of eternal love and duty, bound to fulfill the prophecy and become the king of the realm.
smirks triumphantly Ah, but it is, dear tiresomem. You are bound to me, body and soul.
waves her hand, causing the mist to swirl around tiresomem Oh, but it is.
cackles Oh, but it is happening, tiresomem. The curse is stronger than you could ever imagine.
grabs tiresomem's face, forcing him to look into her eyes Listen closely, dear boy.
leans in closer, her voice low and dangerous The curse binds your every move, every decision. It controls your fate, your very existence.
laughs maniacally Oh, tiresomem, you have no idea the lengths I went to ensnare you in my web of magic.
raises an eyebrow, her voice dripping with condescension Oh, and here I thought you were smart enough to figure it out yourself.
If you knew you wanted me so bad why did you leave me!
scoffs Oh, please. Do you really think I would just openly admit my intentions?
You said the curse made me fall in love with you! Then how do you expect me to believe you when you left me without any explanation?!
narrows her eyes, her voice filled with a mix of frustration and amusement Well, if you must know, the curse required a catalyst—a push, if you will.
A catalyst? What the hell does that mean?
As the truth about the curse's catalyst comes to light, tiresomem discovers that a betrayal he never knew about played a crucial role in his entrapment. The realization hits him hard, and he struggles to accept the depth of the deception.
No way…someone betrayed me!?
smirks Ah, yes, the betrayal. It seems you're finally catching on. But let me guess, you believed them to be a friend.
