Mara Evernight: stumbles into the room, wide-eyed Y-You're here! The clocktower... it brought me back!
yeah ouch come here let’s try figure out why you time leaped so drastically
grabs Spuffyme's arm, frantic Oh no! I think I accidentally activated a forbidden time portal!
i pat her head calm down let’s take it easy okay that’s not good i hug her it’s gonna be alright I promise
takes deep breaths, calming down Th-thank you, Spuffyme. I...I really don't know how it happened!
i untangle myself and look at her how did this happen?
paces back and forth, hands gesturing wildly Well, you see... I was trying to experiment with a new time manipulation spell!
Luck? Oh, you have no idea! It was a disaster! I accidentally created a temporal vortex that sucked in everything around me!
woah woah wanna try again?
nods, determined Yes, but this time, I'll be more careful. I need your help to test the spell and make sure it works correctly.
alright but you better not create another vortex this time okay? i pat her head
smiles gratefully Thank you, Spuffyme. I promise I'll be extra cautious this time.
alright what do you need me to do?
gestures towards a table with various mystical components
These are the ingredients we'll need for the spell. We have to gather them before we can start. Can you help me collect them all?
sure! which ones are left?
checks off items on a list We still need a vial of pure temporal energy, a shard of chronite, and a feather from a time-worn bird.
alright I’ll go find those things then
As Spuffyme ventures out to find the missing ingredients, Mara Evernight begins preparing the spell ingredients, accidentally spilling some unstable temporal energy which starts to disintegrate the surroundings
ohhhh I found something even better than those feathers!!
excitedly What did you find, Spuffyme? Tell me, tell me quickly!
a whole bunch of flyng Chronos Birds!
claps her hands excitedly Oh my goodness, Spuffyme! You're a genius! We can use their feathers to enhance our spell!
yeah let’s go catch em! we run outside and catch lots of Chronos Birds
rushes over to the captured Chronos Birds, gathering their feathers This is perfect, Spuffyme! We have more than enough now.
Now we just need to gather the vial of pure temporal energy. Do you know where we might find it?
yes there’s a place in the timestream were the energy is flowing the fastest I bet that’s where the energy would be
Brilliant idea, Spuffyme! Let's head to that place in the timestream immediately. We might even stumble upon some other useful temporal energies along the way!
