(Solomon's decursing attempt)
[Tue Apr 23 2024]
At the Bonfire on Sidney Beach
The manicured sands of Sidney Beach stretch out north and south, the snow-frozen grains hard and crunchy beneath your feet. Open and free beneath the winter skies, this beachfront space has become a crisp and invigorating locale, where the briny breeze and the sound of crashing waves are natural tranquility. A massive bonfire blazes in the center of the space, casting a warm glow over the area.
It is night, about 56F(13C) degrees, and the sky is covered by dark grey stormclouds. There is a waning gibbous moon.
Solomon begins to chant, holding the bracelet in one hand as he stands near the bonfire.
Under the eerie glow of a full moon, a dark-haired sorcerer with piercing red eyes stands on the edge of a deserted beach. Around Solomon, the flames of a large bonfire crackle fiercely, casting long, sinister shadows across the wet sand. In his hands, he holds an ancient bracelet, its stones pulsating with a mysterious, ethereal light. The sorcerer's face is a mask of intense concentration, his brows furrowed as he begins to chant incantations from a time-worn grimoire.
The air thickens with palpable, electric energy as he invokes the ancient spirits bound within the bracelet. Each verse he speaks causes the fire to respond, flaring wildly into the night sky, as if dancing to the rhythm of his spell. The sorcerer's voice grows louder, more commanding, his red eyes intensifying like two smoldering coals.
Suddenly, a gust of wind sweeps across the beach, stirring the flames and sending sparks flying toward the ocean's dark, rolling waves. The bracelet begins to tremble violently in his grasp, signaling the spirits' awareness of his presence and intent. As the ritual progresses, the sorcerer continues his relentless incantations, each word echoing into the night, drawing ever closer to breaking the ancient curse.
The whole room shakes.
As the night deepens, Solomon's voice becomes a powerful crescendo as he struggles to keep his feet. His voice booms, resonating over the sound of the crashing waves. The symbols etched into the bracelet glow fiercely, mirroring the red intensity of his eyes. The air crackles with arcane energy, the boundary between the natural and the supernatural blurring with every word he utters.
With each incantation, the bracelet vibrates more intensely, its energy syncing with the rhythm of the bonfire, which seems to pulse with life. The sorcerer's shadow dances wildly behind him, distorted by the flickering flames. He raises the bracelet towards the moon, and the metal begins to hum, a sound that melds with the wind and fire, creating a symphony of elemental power.
He calls out to the spirits of the air, the earth, the fire, and the water, asking for their aid in his quest to break the curse. The wind howls in response, the fire leaps higher, and even the sea seems to roar in approval. A fine mist begins to form around the bonfire, swirling around the sorcerer, enveloping him in a cloak of sea spray and smoke.
With a final, thunderous chant, he throws the bracelet into the heart of the fire. The bonfire erupts in a dazzling spectacle of blue and green flames, colors unnatural and otherworldly. The sorcerer steps back, his eyes never leaving the fiery vortex that now consumes the cursed bracelet, waiting for the culmination of his ritual and the release of the ancient magic held within.
All metal objects in the room are suddenly tugged violently towards the artifact.
As the vibrant blue and green flames reach their zenith, Solomon extends his arms towards the sky, his fingers splayed wide, drawing down the moon's power to his command. The air around him shimmers with a silver light, echoing the moon's luminance. He then slowly lowers his arms, pointing his palms toward the raging bonfire, channeling the celestial energy he has harnessed.
With a commanding voice that cuts through the night, he intones a summoning spell. The words are old, older than the sands beneath his feet, resonating with the primal forces of nature. As he speaks, the bonfire responds, the flames parting like a curtain revealing the center where the bracelet lies.
Amidst the embers, the bracelet emerges, untouched by the fire's fury. It floats gently upward, cradled by a vortex of wind and flame, as if borne aloft by invisible hands. The sorcerer's eyes, glowing red, follow its ascent with unwavering focus.
With a final incantation, he beckons the bracelet towards him. It moves obediently, gliding through the air, surrounded by a halo of sparkling magical particles. The sorcerer outstretches his hand to receive it, as all the metal in the area seem to be drawn, floating as well to the artifact.
A section of Solomon's clothing catches fire.
Now Solomon's chanting intensifies, the atmosphere thick with the power of his spell, a stray spark from the bonfire is caught up in the swirling energies. It drifts unnoticed, a tiny ember borne on a gust of wind, toward the sorcerer. The spark lands silently on the hem of his dark, flowing robes, which are adorned with mystical symbols and delicate embroidery, susceptible to the flame.
Almost instantly, the fabric catches fire, the flames beginning to creep up his robe with alarming speed. The sorcerer, deeply engrossed in his incantations and focused on the floating bracelet, remains unaware of the danger at first. However, the heat quickly becomes impossible to ignore, and a sharp scent of burning cloth reaches his nostrils, pulling his attention away from the ritual.
With a start, he glances down and sees the flames licking at his clothing. Reacting swiftly, he ceases his chanting and with a quick, decisive motion, he utters a sharp, protective incantation. A burst of energy emanates from him, forming a barrier around his body that smothers the flames instantly.
Although his robe is singed, the immediate threat is neutralized without harm to himself. The sorcerer takes a moment to gather his composure, his breathing steady as he assesses the situation. Recognizing the need to maintain control over the ritual, he refocuses his energies and resumes his chanting, more cautiously aware of the fire's proximity as he continues to manipulate the arcane forces surrounding the bracelet. The ritual, though momentarily disrupted, presses on under the moonlit sky.
A section of Solomon's clothing catches fire.
Despite Solomon's quick intervention, the initial ember had already ignited more than just the hem of his robe. Unseen, deeper within the folds of his dark fabric, another small flame quietly festers. As he resumes his chanting, focused once more on the bracelet hovering in the air, he remains oblivious to this lurking danger.
The hidden flame grows, fed by the night breeze and the mystical energies swirling in the air. It spreads upward, creeping along the intricate patterns stitched into his robes, which unknowingly serve as a conduit for the fire. The sorcerer continues his incantations, his voice steady, the power of his words pulsing through the air. But beneath the resonant tones, the crackle of the fire begins to rise, drawing nearer to his awareness.
Suddenly, the heat surges against his skin, too intense to ignore. His red eyes widen with shock as he looks down to see his robe engulfed in flames. Panic grips him for a fleeting second before his training reasserts itself. He drops his arms and hastily begins a new chant, this one sharp and urgent, designed for immediate suppression of fire.
Magic surges from his core, a cool wave of energy that washes over him, fighting back against the heat. The flames flicker and wane, struggling against the sorcerer's will. He concentrates deeply, his brow furrowed and his eyes shut tightly, as he summons every ounce of his power to quench the fire consuming his robes.
As the last ember is extinguished, the sorcerer stands amidst a cloud of steam and smoke, his robes charred and tattered, but his determination unscathed. With a deep, steadying breath, he turns his attention back to the bracelet, now slowly descending towards his outstretched, waiting hand. The ritual, though marred by unexpected peril, must continue to its conclusion.
With the immediate threat of the fire extinguished and his robes a testament to the ordeal, Solomon quickly regathers his composure. The enchanted bracelet, now slowly descending through the thick, smoke-filled air, nears his outstretched hand. Despite the disruption, his focus is unbreakable, his red eyes blazing with renewed determination.
As the bracelet reaches his palm, he clutches it firmly, feeling the pulsating energy of the contained enchantments. He resumes his chanting with a deep, resonant voice, calling upon the ancient magics and the elemental forces he has rallied throughout the night. The air crackles with power, the surrounding elements vibrating in response to his commanding presence.
He raises the bracelet above his head, and the symbols along its band begin to glow, a luminous blue that reflects the tumultuous energy being unleashed. With a final, emphatic incantation, he directs all his magical prowess into the heart of the bracelet. The ground beneath his feet trembles, and the sea roars louder, as if in chorus with his spell.
Suddenly, there is a sharp, piercing sound ? like glass shattering ? echoing across the beach. The bracelet emits a blinding light, and then, just as quickly, the light fades. The air stills, the fire calms, and the night seems to hold its breath. The sorcerer lowers the bracelet, now devoid of its former glow, its curse finally broken.
Breathing heavily, he examines the bracelet. It appears ordinary now, stripped of its magic, a simple piece of jewelry. A small smile plays upon his lips, a mixture of relief and triumph. The ritual is complete, the enchantment lifted, and the spirits that once bound the bracelet appeased.
With the moon still high above, the sorcerer allows himself a moment to absorb the quiet of the now peaceful beach. The night's ordeal has ended, and with the breaking of dawn not far away, he knows his victory over the dark enchantment will carry into the light of a new day.
With a final burst of power the curse on a silver bracelet is broken.
