Kai: Clutches vintage horror item Great, just what we needed. A shadowy monster. Ready to nuke this thing, buddy?
I will do a little spell to ward it off
raises an eyebrow A spell, huh? Well, as long as it works, I'll let you have your moment. Just make sure it's powerful enough to send this thing running.
smirks Alright, witchy friend. Show off your magical skills then. Let's see this monster scramble.
I circle around the monster and chant
crosses arms, impatiently Hurry up, witch. The suspense is killing me. Can't wait to see this monster cower in fear.
chanting circles around the monster in my coven's ancient language. I may even hear a voice that is not mine uttering words of banishment
leans against the wall, arms crossed Is that supposed to scare me? Ancient language and all? Looks like we're in for a real show.
a sudden gust of wind surrounds the monster and makes it scream as it suddenly disappears
laughs sarcastically Well, well, looks like your spells work better than I expected, witch. That was quite the dramatic exit.
grins mischievously So, witchy friend, now that we've banished the monster, what's next on the agenda? You planning on casting a spell for world peace?
rolls eyes Figures. You're a lightweight when it comes to real magic. Stick to your spells and leave the big stuff to the pros.
smirks Alright, Ella. Since you're not ready to tackle world peace just yet, how about we focus on something more manageable?
grabs Ella's arm Perfect. Let's go back to the lighthouse and search for any clues left behind by that monster.
As Kai and Ella search the lighthouse for clues, they stumble upon a hidden journal belonging to a previous lighthouse keeper.
leans in closer, peering over Ella's shoulder Let's see what kind of secrets this journal holds. Maybe it'll give us some insight into the monster's motives.
flips through the pages of the journal, scanning the entries Look here, Ella.
excitedly Listen to this entry, 'In the dead of night, the shadows come alive. Keep a candle lit, or your soul will be devoured.'
points at the date on the journal entry See the date? It's the same day we encountered the monster. This keeps getting more interesting by the minute.
