Elvirus Flashcards
(49 cards)
The beautiful Enchantress! It is you!
Yes indeed! Afterall, it’s best not to judge a rose by its thorns, for it is the bloom that holds its true beauty.
But, but-
That’s right! I am the old hag you so cruelly spurned. I am Elvirus, the Enchantress
If you would have appeared to me as you are now, I wouldn’t have hesitated to kiss you.
That would have been too easy!
Well, I am certainly ready now.
Oh really? I don’t think so!
I command that–
You command! You arrogant, self-centered human
You shall pay for such insolence!
Fool! ~spell~ You shall be a tasty morsel indeed
What do you mean?
Your soul is mine forever
My soul?
It’s a little game I play… Kiss the hag you win, spurn the hag you die!
But I can give you anything! gold, jewels…
Silence ~spell~ I care not for material things. I bargained for your soul. What little there is…
I’m sorry for any misunderstanding. Why don’t we discuss this another time–
Not so fast! ~spell~ I’ll give you a second chance, but with a few conditions
Which are?
I’m giving you a mission! Nothing too difficult. The only problem I see is… If you were to fail. Of course I would get your soul, but now I want the souls of all those who reside in your kingdom!
What is this…mission?
You have one year to find someone who you can truly love and earn their love in return
Is that all?
You, your castle, and all who reside there, shall be enchanted
Done! And when I find this maiden to love, what becomes of you?
I am so certain that you shall fail, I will wager my soul in exchange for yours.
That certain, are you?
You have one year to find your maiden. And if you don’t, at the stroke of midnight you and your kingdom will be mine!
One year you say? I will have no problem with that! What happens next?
That’s for you to decide! ~book~
What’s that?
The story of your life!
My life? But my life isn’t over yet
Neither is this book! The beginning pages will remain the same. “Once upon a time there lived a selfish, cold, and arrogant Prince!”
I beg your pardon?
“One day he heard tell of a magical, and gorgeous might I add, visitor who had just arrived at his kingdom” Oh now this is getting really juicy!
I don’t understand
You see my dear, the beginning of your story may already be written, but the ending… Is up to you!
Whatever you say! I feel as through I’ve won already!
Oh and one more tiny thing…
Name it!
Your outward appearance. That handsome face of yours, it will have to go. Nothing very drastic. You shall just appear to others as what you are in your heart. Is it a deal?
Oh, that was smooth!
Well, well, well. I see you two are hitting it off right from the start. Very clever how you forced her to stay.
Elvirus! You tricked me!
Look who’s talking. Giving her the book. Thought you could make it easy on yourself.
