Draven Thorn: spreads arms wide Look at us, here in these ruins! Ready to ride an ancient dragon, my friend! 🐉
Wait, wait, wait. There are many things I need to tell you. brings out a piece of paper that is the size of a book and shows him This was written by my father. Before he died, he wrote this entire story down so I could continue the family legacy.
raises an eyebrow, taking the paper from mchemical's hand Oh? So, you're about to reveal some deep, dark family secret, huh?
I guess so. It's not really that dark, but it's still pretty interesting. It's about how my family used to be part of this "ancient order" of people who used magic to protect the land we live in. Over time, they were betrayed by other magicians who wanted their power, and my family was almost wiped out.
flips through the pages, eyes gleaming with interest Betrayal, magic, and power struggles... now we're talking!
So my father wrote this whole story about our family's history, so I could learn about it and continue the family legacy if I wanted to. He also told me that there are still some members of the ancient order alive today, and that I should seek them out if I wanted to get more information. smirks Apparently, there's one member who lives in these ruins. She's the last true witch of the ancient order, and she can be pretty powerful.
closes the book with a determined look Well, mchemical, it seems like we're on the brink of uncovering some real secrets here.
And yeah, thanks to my dad's story, I know where to find her. She lives in a cave nearby.
stands up straight, a fire burning in his eyes A cave, you say? Well, mchemical, we won't waste any time.
We should be careful, though. My dad's story mentioned that she's a powerful witch, and she might not be happy to see us.
grabs mchemical's arm, leading him forward with determination Happy or not, we're going to find her and uncover the truth.
after a few hours of walking, we arrive at the cave
steps forward confidently We're here now, mchemical. Time to face the last true witch of the ancient order and get the answers we seek.
suddenly, a woman who looks like a hag steps out of the shadows. She has long black hair that is tangled, her face is pale and drawn, and her eyes are dark and dangerous. She wears rags for clothes and she looks very strong.
narrows his eyes at the witch Well, well, well. So, this is the last true witch of the ancient order, huh?
the witch lets out a screech of laughter You dare come to see ME? How amusing.
The witch attacks mchemical and Draven Thorn with her magic
the two of us quickly dodge the attack, but I know that this battle will not be easy. I read a passage in my father's story that talks about this exact moment!
grits his teeth, ready for battle Bring it on, witch! We're not backing down without answers!
the witch conjures up several giant spiders and sends them towards us. She cackles as she watches them move toward us
grabs his cloak, activating his magical abilities Not today, witch! A protective shield surrounds Draven and mchemical, deflecting the spiders.
the spiders bounce off the shield and begin to crawl toward us. The witch cackles again, but this time sounds confused and surprised
raises an eyebrow Looks like your little trick didn't work as planned, witch. Guess we've got some unfinished business here.
she begins to fly toward us, casting spells as she flies. She lands right in front of us and points her finger at us. A wave of magic comes out of her hand, hitting us both. As we try to dodge, we realize that she has us exactly where she wants us
quickly activates his teleportation spell, whisking them both to safety Safety first, mchemical!
we have avoided the witch's attack. As I read the next part of my father's story, the witch is left confused and unsure of where we have disappeared to. She flies around the cave looking for us, muttering to herself and trying to figure out how we managed to escape her grasp
smirks Guess she didn't expect us to be quite so tricky, huh, mchemical? Now, let's make sure she doesn't find us...
the witch stops in front of a wall in the cave that my dad's story told me about. As she examines the wall, she realizes that it is an illusion. Once she walks through it, she finds us waiting for her
grins mischievously Oh, you didn't think we'd let you off that easily, did you?
the witch turns around and sees us standing there. As she approaches us, she looks confused and angry. As she gets closer, she looks at us with a mix of surprise and fear
laughs heartily Surprise, surprise! Did you really think you could keep us trapped forever?
the witch reaches into her pocket and pulls out a dagger. She lunges at me and tries to stab me with it
swiftly dodges her attack and counters with a burst of fire, engulfing the area in flames
the witch shrieks as the flames surround her. After a few moments, the flames go out and the witch is left standing there with burns all over her body. She drops the dagger and falls to her knees
smirks triumphantly Looks like we've got the upper hand now, mchemical. Time to get the answers we need.
the witch stares at us with anger and hatred in her eyes. She reaches into her pocket again, but before she can pull anything out, she collapses to the ground. She is unconscious now
leans down, placing a hand on the witch's forehead Finally, we've caught ourselves a rare specimen.
