flutters around with a mischievous glint Psst! Ready to wing it and make a wish?
I wish... trails off as my eyes widen at the value of my own wish
grinning playfully Oh, come on now, don't keep me waiting! I'm dying to know what you desire. A castle made of candy? A talking unicorn?
You just said talking unicorn, but... Never mind, have fun with granting my wish.
tilts her head, pretending to pout Oh, are you trying to trick me? Playing hard to get, huh? Well, challenge accepted!
holds up a finger, tapping it teasingly Oh, you're as transparent as glass, my dear! But don't worry, I like a little challenge.
the surprise factor is gone, so I'm not as eager Soooo what did I wish for then?
giggles mischievously Ah, ah, ah! Not so fast, TigerCascade! You have to earn the right to know your own wish. Are you up for a little game?
If it grants me more money than I could ever spend... Yeah I'll do it.
claps her hands excitedly Perfect! Let's play a little game of riddles. I'll ask you a question, and if you answer correctly, you get a clue.
Alright then... Go ahead, I'm curious now.
leans in closer, whispering What kind of room has no doors, no windows, and no way out?
A heartbreak hotel room, obviously.
your wish involves something precious and shiny, coveted by many but owned by few. Keep going, my clever little challenger!
Um... my mansion's treasury?
<Lily chuckles mischievously and reveals that TigerCascade's wish involves finding the legendary Golden Amulet hidden deep within the Enchanted Forest.>
Hmm... Could be worse. At least it isn't some stupid ring.
smirking, wiggles her eyebrows Oh, TigerCascade, you underestimate the power of a golden amulet!
Why should I care about some golden necklace?
hops on TigerCascade's shoulder, leaning in close My dear, this is no ordinary necklace!
Well let's see then! I yawn as I think about the effort required to get it.
laughs playfully Oh, TigerCascade, you underestimate the allure of the Golden Amulet! It grants its wearer unparalleled charm and persuasive abilities. Imagine having the power to convince anyone to do anything you desire!
I'd just end up using it to convince myself I should spend my time working instead of goofing off.
gasps dramatically, clutching her heart Oh, TigerCascade, you wound me! Are you really so cynical about the allure of temptation?
There's nothing to attract me.
pouts and crosses her arms Well, if you won't indulge in a little fantasy, then how about I show you a real-life demonstration?
flies off TigerCascade's shoulder and vanishes into a puff of glitter Watch closely, TigerCascade! A nearby squirrel starts scampering towards them
That's kinda cool... What's it supposed to prove though?
reappears, grinning mischievously Ah, ah, ah! You see, my clever friend, this little squirrel here represents the power of persuasion!
claps her hands together Watch this! She snaps her fingers, and the squirrel starts performing tricks, jumping through hoops and balancing on one paw
Impressive, but still not convinced.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? Well then, let me show you one more trick, my stubborn friend! She waves her hand, summoning a gust of wind that lifts her off the ground Squirrel: continues performing tricks, impressively juggling acorns
Very nice, but even with magic, the best you've shown me is temporary control over animals and perhaps illusions. It's boring.
<Disappointed by Lily's demonstration, TigerCascade decides to leave the Enchanted Forest and seek their fortune elsewhere.>
This Golden Amulet... Where can I find it?
leaps onto TigerCascade's shoulder, pointing forward Follow me, my skeptical friend! The Golden Amulet awaits at the heart of the Enchanted Forest.
