Journal Entry #13: Magic Spirit
Dear Journal, There's a horrible secret in this castle. It's as if I was meant to fall asleep in this chamber. I had a very weird dream in this place. In my dream, there was flashing colors, and a ghost of a beautiful woman. She came up to me and asked for help. She told me that her husband had killed her and had plotted to take what was called her Magic Spirit. It's the thing inside everyone who can use magic that actually lets them use the magic. I know it sound confusing, but hey, this is a dream. She told me that she cast a spell to stop him from taking her spirit, so he killed out of frustration. The phantom goes on to say that she had a daughter, and probably could use magic as well. She said that the husband built a chamber to trap and kill all those who tried to enter the next chamber, which is where the husband keeps her dead body. The ghost then said that by pulling the left torch, the entrance door would open. If one were to pull the right torch, the entrance to the next chamber would open. Next she mentioned that the husband managed to extract the evilness from within her and used it to guard the chamber. Lastly, she said that her daughter is in danger from the husband, and that she wants me to rescue her. Then I woke up. But something troubles me. The ghost looked exactly like Marle's Mother.
Journal Entry #14: Missing
Dear Journal, Out of fear, I pulled the left torch. To my both horror, and relief, the door opened. I ran through it, and up the marble staircase. I ran through the dark corridors of the castle. When I reached Nadia's room, a guard tried to stop me. He even drew his sword. I made short work with him with my Fire 1. From him I learned a new Tech Skill. It's called Fire's Double. It takes up a large amount of MP, but that's nothing to what it can do. It makes a complete copy of myself that will do any thing I want it to do. As I tried to open the door to her room, I realized that it was locked. I broke it down with my Wonder Shot (So what if I carry a stupid gun with me everywhere I go?). To my horror, I saw that it was empty.
Journal Entry #15: Queen of Hate
Dear Journal, Right now I'm hiding behind what once was a rose bush. Here's what happened. I ran out of the room and back towards the passage. But then I bumped into the old king! I knew he was hiding Nadia under his cape. To distract him I used Fire's Double to distract him ran back down the marble staircase to the chamber. I had to make sure that this wasn't a big misunderstanding. When I reached the room, I pushed back the lid to the crystal coffin. There was no one in it, which meant, that if this was Marle's Mom's coffin, then she really was in the next chamber. None of this mattered, for as soon as the crystal lid hit the floor, the room began to change. The seemingly endless rays of sunlight that filled the room melted into the dim flicker of torchlight, caused by the two torches by the queen's picture. The rosebushes burst into flames, and turned into thorn bushes. The smooth marble walls and floor turned into cold brick. Then, the picture began to move. The ghost of my dream came out of the picture. It wore a beautiful blue-silk dress, and its blonde hair waved carelessly behind it. But then it too changed, into what could only be described as a monster. The misty transparency of the old queen slowly disappeared, and she became solid. Her blue dress became gray rags. Her blonde hair grew wild and black. Its light eyes changed to cold, red slits of anger. The nose was replaced by to narrow holes. It was hideous. This must be the essence of hate the good queen told me of in my dream. I call this new enemy Queen of Hate, and she might just be tougher then any boss I have ever fought before. It let out a shrill screech unlike any I have heard before. It was horrible. I ran behind the thorns, to where I am now. I'm so scared! I don't know what to do. Wait, I might have an idea. But what if it doesn't work? What then? Can ghost see through illusions?
Will Lucca win? Or will this now be Marle's diary? Wait, she might die too. Stupid story line!
