She backed away from him, a pained expression on her face "YOu held an ARTIFACT with far more powewr than a nuclear bomb, and near destroyed that whcich you desired. If she wakes up and, the spell will ripple again, and enslave you as well. That is all you have done...So before she awakens, we shall take care of the hand of gloy, and maybe you can go back to pretending everything is okay."

"Okay you need to fill me in on a few things. suchas what do you mean "if she wakes up" and "Ripple" and "Enslave me as well"?"

She sighed "If Lee doesn't feel safe she won't come back. That was the "if" part. SHe sensed the spell of teh hand of glory and ran from it rather than let it break over her. SHe is snared, oh, yes, a fine trap for soemoen who already did like you...but the Hand of Glory's curse is to truly destroy whta you desire. If Lee comes back, the spell will come back on you as well, snaring both you and her in a life of misery, as is the hand of Glory's wont."

Angelo looked at the thing on the floor. "She would be miserable?" he asked. Lee was one of the few good people he knew. he didnt want her unhappy. did being in love with him mean she would be unhappy? he was growing quite confused.

"The hand of Glory is the left hand of a hanged man...it offers the reverse of what you ask. Love would be hate as soon as you were both bound, and yet you would both be unable to leave each other." she didn't say it unkindly...he was so confused...and Lee relly did like him, so there was no point in destroying him...

"How can I make it so whe doenst have to be unhappy?" he asked. "I'll do anything. I'll arm wrestle this thing if i have to." he picked up the Hand of Glory and looked at it like an enemy.

Wisgoth rushed to where everyone was gathering, nudging a stunned Riva out of his way. He quickly lit the candle and handed it to Lee's body.
"I can't believe I kept that. It was a trade for a telescope. I kept it out of interest. What made you think you could use it?" Wisgoth said, half to himself, half to Angelo.
"This is your field, miss. Unless Claire knows anythign, which I doubt. Too much time spent in the minds of other creatures." Wisgoth shut his mouth to stop the random strema of thoughts from coming out.

Lee's body nodded "Yes, we shall take care of this...personally, I dislike being here..." she sat down, balancing the hand of Glory in her left hand and the candle in her right.
"Now, we need a socerer or soceress to add a drop of blood to the candle, and we need the wisher to add a drop of blood...and please, keep your thoughts neutral while doing it."

he looked to Wisgoth, "I just did it for kicks, I didnt think it would work... I never believed in all this stuff."
he took a multi-tool out of his back pocked and breathed deeply. with a calm expression, he cut across his palm. as the blood came out however, it unexpectedly turned gold.

Wisgoth held his hand out to Claire. Claire scratched his thumb open. Wisgoth watched as his blood turned gold as well.
"Fascinating." He said, a little breathless. Wisgoth carefully cleared his mind and put his hand over the candle, watching to make sure only a drop of blood fell into the candle.

"Where magic doth dwell..." she whispered. The candle itself grew golden, and the flame licked blue. Then the Hand of Glory twitched. or writhed as it may be. Then, reluctantly the fingers also began to burn blue.

Riva stared at the hand and the conjurer. She was amazed at it all. "Oh man. This is crazy."
Wisgoth didn't move his eyes from Lee's body, but shushed Riva over his shoulder.

"Will some one tell me why my blood is gold? or if I can sell it?" he was trying to joke to cover his fear and his confusion. the humor died on his lips.
