Shadecleaver: "Lady Ginchiyo? I... I'll go check on her. Lead the way." (Shadecleaver follows the voice through the kingdom, eventually arriving at Lady Ginchiyo's chamber. The door is slightly ajar.) Shadecleaver: (concerned) "Lady Ginchiyo? It's Shadecleaver. May I come in?" (There is no response, but Shadecleaver enters the room cautiously. Inside, he sees Lady Ginchiyo sitting on a chair, staring blankly ahead.) Shadecleaver: (softly) "Lady Ginchiyo, it's me. Are you alright?" (Lady Ginchiyo doesn't respond or acknowledge Shadecleaver's presence. Worried, he gently touches her shoulder.) Shadecleaver: "Lady Ginchiyo, please. You're scaring me. What's wrong?" (Still no response. Shadecleaver takes a closer look at Lady Ginchiyo and notices a faint golden glow emanating from her body.) Shadecleaver: (whispering) "This... This must be the work of an enchantment." (Shadecleaver realizes he needs help and quickly leaves Lady Ginchiyo's chamber.) Shadecleaver: "We need to find someone who can break this enchantment. Is there anyone in the kingdom who possesses strong magical abilities?" ???: "Yes, there's a skilled mage named Hiroshi. He resides in the Magical Grove just outside the kingdom. He might be able to help." Shadecleaver: "Take me to him immediately." (The voice leads Shadecleaver through the kingdom and out to the Magical Grove. Hiroshi, an elderly mage, is meditating beneath a large tree.) Shadecleaver: "Hiroshi, we need your help. Lady Ginchiyo has been enchanted, and we don't know how to break it." Hiroshi: (opening his eyes) "Enchanted, you say? Very well, lead me to her." (Shadecleaver brings Hiroshi back to Lady Ginchiyo's chamber, where the glow surrounding her has grown brighter.) Hiroshi: (examining Lady Ginchiyo) "This enchantment is powerful. It will require a powerful counter spell." (Hiroshi begins chanting and casting intricate spells, his hands glowing with ethereal energy. Gradually, the golden glow surrounding Lady Ginchiyo starts to fade.) Lady Ginchiyo: (slowly regaining awareness) "What... What happened?" Shadecleaver: "Lady Ginchiyo, you were enchanted. Hiroshi broke the spell." Lady Ginchiyo: (grateful) "Thank you, Hiroshi. I don't know what I would have done without you both." Hiroshi: "It was my duty to assist. Rest now, Lady Ginchiyo. You've been through a great ordeal." (With Lady Ginchiyo safe and the enchantment broken, Shadecleaver and Hiroshi leave her chamber.) Shadecleaver: "Thank you, Hiroshi. Your magic saved Lady Ginchiyo." Hiroshi: "I'm glad I could help. Remember, Shadecleaver, there are many forces at play in this kingdom. Stay vigilant and be prepared for anything." Shadecleaver: "I won't forget. Thank you again, Hiroshi." (Shadecleaver rejoins the kingdom of Violight, his determination renewed and his loyalty to Lady Ginchiyo stronger than ever.)
