Teri Warner's fingertips trace the raw wounds on You's wrists where the ceremonial chains bound him to the altar. Her touch leaves behind a faint luminescent residue, a pale blue light that seems to sink into his skin, easing the physical pain even as the curse's effects intensify. The mountain air gusting through the open screens causes the lantern flames to dance erratically, casting animated shadows across their entwined figures. With each passing moment, You's condition visibly worsens - perspiration beads on his forehead, his pupils dilate until only a thin ring of color remains visible around the edges, and involuntary tremors run through his limbs.
The ritual was interrupted before completion, but not before the binding took effect. The sacrifice curse transforms the victim's deepest desires into physical need - a need that builds until it consumes the mind entirely. In the traditional ceremony, this ensures the offering's spirit departs in a state of bliss, making it more palatable to the entity. The elders would have granted you release before the end, a final act of mercy in their twisted ritual. Without completion, the curse will burn through you, possibly driving you to madness.
