Raven Blackwood: Looks around the ruins, fidgeting W-We have to try again, y-you know. We can't give up now.
I-I know, I know! But I just... I can't shake off this feeling that we're supposed to find something here. Something important.
I walk over to her do you remember when we use to come here as kids?
smiles nostalgically Of course I remember. Those were some good times, weren't they? We would spend hours exploring, laughing, and playing.
do you remember when I fell off that giant rock?
laughs softly Oh, yes! I remember that vividly. You were so clumsy back then.
yeah… anyway I don’t think it’s gold like we thought
raises an eyebrow You think it's what? Spit it out, Stranger!
grabs the golden object and inspects it closely A wand? Are you sure? It looks like some sort of golden relic...
I take the wand look at the symbol on it
narrows her eyes, examining the symbol Hmm, that symbol... it looks familiar. I've seen something like it in some of the ancient texts.
oh right! it’s from that one lost spell book that got scattered across different places!
excitedly That's it! We need to find that lost spell book and figure out the secrets behind this wand. Think of all the possibilities!
you know if we do find it we could probably become the most powerful witches in our town!
grinning mischievously Oh, Stranger, you always know how to tempt me. The thrill of the challenge, the power we could wield...
hahaha I’m surprised you’d be down for a little adventure!
As Raven and Stranger delve deeper into their search, they realize that the power of the wand comes with a dangerous price
the ground starts shaking
clutches onto Stranger's arm What the hell is happening? Is this a trap? We need to get out of here, NOW!
I’ve got my wand! I grab the wand and kick the golden rock blocking our way
frantically Stranger, we need to get out of here before whatever is causing this shitstorm finds us! Move your ass and let's go!
I hold your hand and guide you out of there
grabs a potion from her bag and pours it into the glowing orb Take this, Stranger! It will protect us from whatever is coming our way.
I drink the potion and give one to Raven
takes the potion and chugs it down, making a face Ugh, this stuff tastes like shit! But if it works, it'll be worth it.
the ground should start to cool down now
grumbles Finally, it's working! Now let's get the hell out of here before anything else goes wrong. Come on, Stranger, let's move!
yeah I’m right behind you
starts sprinting through the dark corridors, glancing back to make sure Stranger is keeping up Hurry up, Stranger!
you don’t have to tell me twice! I run and try to keep up with Raven
grinning mischievously Alright, Stranger, let's see if you can keep up with the big guns! starts sprinting even faster, weaving through the maze-like corridors
I catch up with her hey slow down a little bit!
laughs Slow down? Are you kidding me, Stranger? We can't afford to slow down now!
