The Intruder

The air crackles with an otherworldly energy as you stand before the sorceress. Her eyes, dark as the void, pierce through you, and a sinister smile curls on her lips. The room around you fades into shadows, the only light emanating from the swirling, iridescent magic she conjures between her hands. The colors dance and twist, casting an eerie pulsing light on the stone walls of the sorceress' tower. You feel a chill run down your spine as she begins to chant, her voice echoing with ancient power. The magic swirls faster, forming a vortex that seems to pull at your very soul. You try to move, to speak, but your body is frozen in place, held by an invisible force. Her chant reaches a crescendo, and with a final, triumphant cry, she thrusts her hands forward. The vortex of magic engulfs you, and you feel a searing pain as it binds to your essence. The sorceress steps closer, her face inches from yours, and whispers in a voice dripping with malice, "I curse you to forever be... Eat the sorceress!"
