Samantha: lights candles We gotta be careful... this place ain't friendly! You ready for this, cus?
I nod nervously as I look at her.
Samantha takes your hand, her fingers intertwining with yours firmly. Don't worry, I got your back. Just follow my lead, yeah? Trust me.
I’m not sure if I am but yes I’ll do it
smiles, taking your hand Trust me, we'll be fine. Just keep your head low and eyes open.
Samantha pulls out a tattered old book filled with various symbols and markings, flipping through the pages until she finds the one she's looking for.
This spell can help us tap into some serious magical energy. Are you ready to begin?
I look at you I guess so.
Samantha gives a small smirk and raises her eyebrows, clearly amused by your apparent lack of confidence
Don't worry, I'll take care of you, honey. Just stick close, okay?
I've been waiting for this moment. I reply as I look at her.
Samantha gives a sly smile, eyes gleaming with excitement as she takes a deep breath Alright then, let's do this. With a flick of her wrist, she lights a match and uses it to light the rest of the candles, illuminating the room in a warm, flickering glow. This is some heavy stuff we're messing with here, but I got faith in us.
I was born ready, cuz. Let's do this.
gives a smirk That's the spirit! she pulls out a dusty old book and starts reading from it Samantha: Alright, now we gotta say the incantation and draw the symbols. This'll open a portal to other dimensions...
Yeah I'm ready. Let's do this!
closes her eyes Alright, then... let the ritual begin! Samantha takes a deep breath and recites an incantation in Creole, the air filling with an otherworldly energy. The temple's ancient walls seem to shudder as the ritual progresses
Yeah I'm ready. Let's do this. I say confidently.
smiles, a hint of mischief in her eyes That's the spirit. Just follow my lead and we'll have a good time. This will be a night to remember. Samantha begins to chant softly, a low, sultry tone filling the room as she recites ancient words in a language you don't understand. The air around you seems to thicken, and shadows begin to swirl in the flickering candlelight.
Yeah. I'm ready for whatever you have planned. Lead the way, cuz.
Samantha leads you into the hidden voodoo temple, the air thick with a mixture of mystery and anticipation
Samantha: This place has been here for centuries. It's where the city's oldest secrets and mysteries hide. We're about to uncover some serious magic, cuz.
I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
smiles That's the spirit! Now, I got some spices and herbs we can burn for protection, and then we just have to light the incense and say some prayers. You believe in spirits?
I'm a male half orc named Krog. I've been through worse. What's next.
laughs Good ol' Krog! Don't worry, I ain't never met a situation I couldn't handle. Let's just hope this ritual doesn't turn out like that time we tried summoning a demon and accidentally got possessed. chuckles
Yes. I say as I look at her.
Good. Now close your eyes. She places a cold, smooth hand on your forehead, feeling your pulse. Samantha: Relax. Clear your mind. Picture your intentions. What do you seek?
Sure am. Let's get this show on the road.
Samantha takes out a book of spells and begins reading out loud
Samantha: "By the powers of the loa, we call upon your presence. We seek knowledge, power, and protection. Hear us, O spirits, and grant our wishes!"
Samantha closes the book and looks around, waiting for something to happen
let's do this. I say as I light some more candles.
Samantha nods and lights a final candle.
Samantha: Alright, we're set. Let's begin our ritual...
Samantha pulls out an old, leather-bound book and opens it to a page filled with various symbols and diagrams.
Samantha: First, we need to draw a circle around us. This will protect us from any negative energy.
Samantha grabs a piece of chalk and starts drawing a large circle on the floor.
"I guess." She said as she looked around.
Samantha looks around as well, her eyes darting across the dimly lit room, before turning back to you.
Samantha: This place gives me the creeps. I hope that ritual book we got has the right spell in it.
Yeah. He smiled nervously as he adjusted his glasses.
Samantha chuckled softly at his nervousness Samantha: C'mon, don't look so nervous, cuz. This is just a little magic. I promise you, nothin' bad will happen... probably. She placed a hand on his shoulder and gave it a reassuring squeeze.
I'm definitely not. I don't even know what we're doing here but I trust you so let's do it.
nods Good answer. Just follow my lead. Samantha opens a small bag and takes out a deck of old, faded tarot cards. She lays out five cards facing up on a small wooden table. Samantha: Now, these cards are gonna tell us what we're dealing with. Let's see... She looks at the cards and sighs. Samantha: Oh boy... these aren't good...
