The hooded figured approached his prey carefully in the guise of a simple goblin, innocent and naïve in appearance. A small goblin reached out a gnarled hand and tugged on Sarah's hood as she made her way to the carriage. When she turned around it reached up and gave her a small and pretty bracelet, "a present for da pretty lady." The goblin muttered and Sarah smiled as she accepted the gift and placed it on her wrist. Another goblin ran up to Sarah and presented her with another gift, this too was a bracelet, only more elaborate then the one that the other goblin had given Sarah.
Corryn was pleased when he saw her accept his gift. At first he was concerned about giving her the bracelet unsuspected, but he was not the only goblin that day giving the Lady presents, nor was he the only one to give her a bracelet. Another goblin had presented a crudely made bracelet, the only kind those crude beasts could make, and Corryn felt that she was more likely to wear his beautiful bracelet as apposed to this other one. It would not be long before it began to affect her.
Sarah had gotten ready that morning for her long ride with Jareth, he had come to her earlier that morning and presented her with his mother's ring to wear for her protection during their trip to his sister's kingdom. The power that it held did not need to have any chance to get out and if Sarah wore the ring it should protect her as well. He took her hand and slipped it on her finger. After he left Sarah found herself drawn to the ring on her right hand and how it seemed so simple and yet according to Jareth, was not simple at all.
Sarah out on her traveling cloak and followed Jareth out to the carriage. There was a good deal of goblins gathering around to watch their king and his lady leave. The goblins seemed sad and many reached out to touch Sarah, there was one who pulled on her cloak and gave her a crude looking bracelet. Sarah smiled at the gift that was placed on her right arm, it looked like something the goblin had made and that made this a special gift, one that was to be treasured. Another goblin gave her a more intricate looking bracelet, it seemed clear to Sarah that the goblin had not made this but more likely bought it. This second gift felt strange to Sarah, it was like the metal was too cold against her skin and it didn't feel right. She did not wish to remove in front of the goblin and hurt its feeling, so she waited to take it off once she and Jareth were in the carriage.
Corryn came back from the city and felt that his plan had been a success. It would only be a couple more days this Sarah and Jareth entered the territory of Adyna and knew what the banshee would do to Sarah once she caught her wearing her bracelet. It was the curse that the bracelet held that had caused Adyna all her grief and with Sarah now wearing the bracelet the same thing would happen to her. Corryn knew that once Sarah was gone Jareth would become weak again and that would be time for him to make his move.
