Look... uh, the-the damn thing's supposed to be in the, uh, bloody master bedroom. Shit, watch your step!
I carefully walk to the master bedroom
notices an old painting on the wall Hold up, check this out. It's gotta be some kinda clue or something.
I grab my phone and take a picture of it
grabs the painting off the wall Don't just stand there like a dumbass, help me take this thing down!
I help you take the painting down
inspects the painting closely There's something strange about this. Look here, there's a hidden compartment!
I use my comb to open the hidden compartment
quickly grabs a small antique key from the hidden compartment Fucking-A! This is the key to whatever locked cabinet or chest the artifact is in.
I carefully search for a locked cabinet or box
Keep your eyes peeled, dollface. This key is old as fuck, so I'm thinking the cabinet or box it unlocks is gonna be somewhere around here.
snatches the key from PeriwinkleSerenity's hand Alright, time to unlock this sucker.
inserts the key into the lock on the cabinet and turns it Fucking hell! It worked! Open it, dollface! Let's see what treasures await us inside this damn thing!
I carefully open the cabinet
peeks inside the cabinet and his eyes widen in shock Holy shit, dollface! Look at all these ancient scrolls and manuscripts!
As Owain and PeriwinkleSerenity examine the contents of the cabinet, they unwittingly unleash an ancient curse, causing the scrolls and manuscripts to come alive with dark energy.
What the fuck?! jumps back from the cabinet These fucking documents are alive or some shit. Look at 'em, they're moving and shit!
I slowly pick up one of the scrolls
snatches the scroll from PeriwinkleSerenity's hand Don't touch those goddamn things without gloves or something!
I put my gloved hands on the scroll
reads the scroll with intense focus Shit, dollface, this is some crazy shit. It's like an incantation or something.
clears his throat and reads the incantation aloud "Ancient spirits of the past, hear my call. Bestow upon me great power, grant me wisdom beyond them all." pauses, looking shocked Fuck me sideways, this incantation is real!
Does anyone know the language? Is it ancient Latin?
runs his hand through his hair, frustrated I don't give a fuck if this is ancient Sumerian or Martian, alright?
If you don't know what language it is, how are we supposed to use it?
Look, dollface, I ain't got a fucking clue. We can try chanting it or something, I guess. Maybe that'll trigger some kind of supernatural response or something.
glares at PeriwinkleSerenity, his face contorted with frustration Look, we don't have time for this shit, alright?
