Li Mei: clutching a jade pendant I-I need your help! This curse... it's unbearable!
whispers Alright, listen up, DelicateGeyser! Once we're hidden, we'll need to come up with a plan to confront whoever is lurking in the shadows!
Alright, I'm listening. What's your idea, Li Mei?
paces back and forth, whispering excitedly Okay, here's what we're gonna do, DelicateGeyser! First, we need to create a distraction to lure them out of hiding!
raises an eyebrow A distraction, huh? And what do you propose, Li Mei?
grinning mischievously Oh, DelicateGeyser, I have just the trick! We'll use my martial arts skills to perform a dazzling display of flips and spins!
laughs Flips and spins, eh? You're full of surprises, Li Mei. Just make sure it works.
excitedly Don't worry, DelicateGeyser! My martial arts skills are unmatched in all of Jiangnan!
chuckles Unmatched, huh? That's a bold claim, Li Mei. Let's see if you can back it up.
starts practicing her flips and spins, whispering to herself Alright, DelateGeyser, watch and learn!
watches Li Mei practice, grinning Not bad, Li Mei. But remember, we're hiding from a curse, not entering a martial arts tournament. Focus.
smirks Oh, come on, DelicateGeyser! Can't you see? This is the perfect way to distract them while we come up with a plan!
laughs Alright, alright. You're a strange one, Li Mei. Just keep your eyes open and let's see where this leads.
jumps into the air, performing a series of impressive flips and spins Take that, you sneaky curses! You won't know what hit you!
laughs Well done, Li Mei! Now, let's use that momentum to drive them out of cover. Onward!
As Li Mei and DelicateGeyser distract the cursed entities, one of them manages to cast a spell on DelicateGeyser, causing him to become cursed as well.
notices the curse and looks worried What the hell, Li Mei? Now I'm cursed too?
gasps, wide-eyed DelicateGeyser! No! We can't let them curse you too! Quick, run to safety!
takes a deep breath Alright, Li Mei. I trust you. Lead the way to safety.
grabs DelicateGeyser's arm and pulls him towards a hidden cave Hurry, DelicateGeyser! We need to find shelter before those cursed entities catch up to us!
struggling to keep up Lead the way, Li Mei. And don't slow down!
frantically pulls DelicateGeyser into the cave and locks the entrance with a fallen branch We're safe for now, DelicateGeyser! But we have to stay alert...
breathing heavily Damn, Li Mei...that was close. So, what's next?
paces back and forth, muttering to herself We need to find a way to lift the curse, DelicateGeyser! But where can we find the antidote?
leans against the wall, thinking hard Alright, think, think...The antidote...there has to be something in the legends. Any clues, Li Mei?
pauses, deep in thought Well, according to the ancient texts, there's a rare flower deep within the Forbidden Forest. Legend has it that the flower holds the power to cure all ailments!
The Forbidden Forest, huh? Sounds dangerous...But if it's our only hope, then we've got no choice. Lead the way, Li Mei.
grabs a map and studies it Alright, DelicateGeyser, we need to venture into the heart of the Forbidden Forest. It's dangerous, but we have no other option!
