Starting To Actually Realize Magic Ain't Pretty VII
Returning to Star’s tower, you find the basement worse for wear. Treasure chests and various trinkets in states of disrepair are strewn across the floor. You see sparkles of jewels twinkling off of firelight in the walls. Stepping closer, you realize these are rings in various states of destruction embedded in the walls.
As you survey the room more closely, you see a hooded figure laying in the middle - Star! Dodging the debris, you rush towards him as he stiffly sits up. Relieved, he looks up to you, “Well, that didn’t work…”
He looks around the basement and looks to you with an apologetic smile, “I tried a shortcut, but now I’ve set us back to the beginning. We’re going to have to start this whole process over again. It turns out metaphysical creations metastasize inverted energetic positrons to deconstruct invection properties quite poorly.”
He waves his hand and a list generates for you. You feel bad for him and wonder what shortcut he was envisioning and how it could have such disastrous consequences for the both of you.
