Autumns Decursing Attempt 240721


(Autumn's decursing attempt)

[Sat Jul 20 2024]

At a Grassy Slope leading to the Manicured Sands of Sidney Beach
A lush lawn sits on a gentle slope, leading away from the HomeTown Diner
just to the west, and down towards the beach not all that far eastward. The
salt air is strong, the sound of the surf on the sand can be heard, and sand
creeps its way in amongst the blades of grass, spread by the wind.

It is dusk, about 91F(32C) degrees,

"Finally found one," Autumn murmurs upon spotting a cursed dagger. Crouching down to quickly grab it, she then moves away from the pergola and further towards the grassy slopes until she finds Fayad and Donovan. "You sense it as well."

"And I thought I found find potential recruits for Damned," Autumn lets out a sigh with a glance around her self. "Hmm..."

"Yeah, go. Recruitment is getting rather scarce, and I know where the good ones ended up in." Autumn looks at Fayad and Donovan before she starts to make a circle around herself.

Donovan pales slightly. "L- let's get out of her hair, shall we? Good evening."

With a circle on the ground complete, Autumn takes a deep breath before she grips the golden dagger in her left hand. Her panja bracelet starts to glow red-orange and she attempts to relax her body.

As Autumn channels her energy onto the dagger, smoke begins to swirl where the circle is and the warm glows starts to envelop the cursed artifact.

All metal objects in the room are suddenly tugged violently towards the artifact.
With her chanting, Autumn closes her eyes for a moment until the artifact starts to unleash its cursed energy. Her jewelry, along with her chest, starts to be yanked towards the dagger, and the dusky woman winces as she uses her other hand to cover the area where her groin is, all while she tries to hold herself still with a purse of her lips.

A section of Autumn's clothing catches fire.

Black smoke continues to surround Autumn in the circle, her warm magical glow radiating from her left hand in which she grips the dagger. The item lets out a hiss before a part of the woman's small dress bursts into flame. "Damn it to Hell," Autumn mutters to herself before she moves her right hand to pat down and extinguish the fire. "You will not win." With narrowing eyes, she tightens her hold on the golden dagger while her energy pulses.

The whole room shakes.
The slope begins to shake around Autumn, causing her to stagger and fall to her knees, still holding the cursed dagger. "How troublesome," she mutters under her breath, trying to get back up until the ground once again falls still. "I will not let you win." With gritted teeth, she chants once more in a low voice before she lifts her right hand and makes a gesture over the artifact.

With a final burst of power the curse on a golden dagger is broken.
