Patrollogs
(William's decursing attempt)
[Mon Oct 21 2024]
In Black Rose Cafe
Large columns support the high ceiling which has
a large stained glass roof that, in the day time
at least, dapples the small cafe below in shades
of rosy reds, greens and dark gray shadows. Each
of the black painted columns are ornamented with
leafy vines that wind their way around them. The
walls are covered from ceiling down with crimson
lake hued wallpaper, embossed in a subtle raised
pattern of more of the blooms that lend the shop
its name. From roughly head height the wallpaper
gives way to darkly stained wood panelling which
then gives way to similar dark hard wood floors.
In the center of the room is a circular counter,
inside of which serves as the hub for the little
cafe that offers patrons a place to sit and read
while snacking or sipping on some coffee or tea.
It is about 50F(10C) degrees.
William says "Khopesh are way cooler, I don't know why scimitars never did the thing for me"
Illyana says "I'll be back."
Illyana stands heading for the door
Re-entering, Illyana takes her seat once more.
Emily rolls her eyes and sighs at William "Hey, come on... it'll be fun! And if ya win ya get somethin' equally valuable in return... for a day..."
William rolls his eyes as well "Right, and what is that something equally valuable? Excuse my distate for being vague, but I've been around a couple game players by now..."
Emily glances at the ring again, a possessive glint in her eyes. She turns her attention back to Illyana with a smile. "Hey...come on, chica... tell your friend to loosen up a lil'"
"Nope." Illyana happily denies Emily. "This way is more entertaining."
William adds "Es encantadora"
Emily holds up her hand again and points at the celtic ring she is wearing too. "Fine... ya get my ring... I am not some fancypants like you, but it -is- real silver..."
"Crusio." Illyana suggests to William, "Expeliamos, avada cadavra, imperio?"
Illyana wanders through the back for a browse
Illyana keeps her back to the gathering in the cafe as something flashes.
Growing air pressure makes your ear's pop uncomfortably and deadens all sound.
What ever Illyana is doing in the occult section, it seems to take all of her attention. She must be talking to someone on facetime or some other method of communication as she appears pretty animated. There's another flash, and she appears to stare at something in her hand.
The whole room shakes.
The occult section seems to shiver around Illyana and a few items fall from the shelves, the shopkeep rushing to collect them as Illyana wildly flails.
As the shop keep replaces things on the shelves, Illyana continues to gesture animatedly.
Illyana stops animatedly waving, head bowed as she looks at something in her hands.
An arc of lightning blasts out of the artifact to strike Illyana, sending her flying.
flying into a wall, seemingly without reason, Illyana stands up, brushes herself down and resumes what she was doing. She glances around with a shrug as if to say 'Wasn't me', though something becomes visible, two things, a glowing red marble and something smaller and white.
With a final burst of power the curse on a bone ring is broken.
