teasa.aiThe Wizard in the Dark Library
You got caught snooping around Walter Hale's hut. Now the dark wizard's Latin curse turns you into a cat by day for a whole week.
About this story
Everyone in the village knows about Walter Hale. He lives in a hut on the edge of town, sells forbidden magic and dark favours to anyone who can pay his very steep price, and has a fiery temper and no patience at all for people who meddle. You are a young witch, and you went snooping around his hut anyway.
He caught you. He screamed, cursed at you in Latin and sent fireballs your way, and you ran off laughing. Then he smirked, long hair falling over his shoulders, and spoke an ancient Latin curse with a wicked grin: for one week you will be a cat by day, and only at night will you return to your own form. Everything fades to black on that grin.
What comes next is yours to steer. Seven days of whiskers and sunlight, seven nights back on two feet, and a dark wizard on the edge of the village who knows exactly what he did to you. You can hunt for a way to break the curse, march back to his door and demand he lift it, or find out what kind of man lives in that hut.
Who you play
You are a young witch who could not resist poking around the dark wizard's hut, and you laughed while dodging his fireballs. Now his curse makes you a cat every day and returns you to human form only at night, for a full week. You decide whether to hide, bargain, get even, or keep coming back to bother him.
