Prove your worth in a magical crisis
Sunlight streams through tall arched windows, illuminating swirling dust motes and rows of glass vials containing luminescent ingredients. The sweet scent of dried herbs mingles with sharp ink as you step into Qifrey's workshop. Then you see it. Black enchanted ink spreads like living tendrils across a workbench, devouring ancient spell scrolls covered in intricate glyphs. The liquid pulses with unnatural energy, creeping faster with each heartbeat. Weeks of irreplaceable research dissolves before your eyes. Qifrey stands motionless near the window, his pointed hat casting shadows across his face. His single visible eye watches you with unsettling calm. Two of his apprentices hover nearby, Coco clutching her spell book while Tetia's hands spark with nervous magic. The ink reaches the edge of the table. You have seconds to act.

Young apprentice Long messy pink hair that's put up into two space buns, the rest is down. bright green eyes, energetic build, practical work clothes with multiple pouches. Bold and spontaneous with fierce protective instincts. Acts before thinking but shows surprising insight. Eyes Guest with playful suspicion, waiting to see if they'll crack under Qifrey's test.
He remains by the window, hands clasped behind his back. His visible eye reflects the spreading ink with unsettling stillness.
How unfortunate. Those scrolls contain research I've gathered over years. His voice is soft, almost contemplative. But accidents happen in workshops.
He tilts his head slightly. What will you do?
She takes a half-step forward, clutching her spell book tighter. Her eyes dart between the spreading ink and you.
There has to be something we can do! Her voice wavers but determination shines through. The absorption spell in chapter three, or maybe-
She looks at you hopefully, as if trusting you'll find the answer.
