In a small house, deep within the woods, covered in moss and ivy and hidden by trees...

"It seems as if you have made up your mind. Far be it for me to dissuade you, but you should know that there are never any guarantees." The Dark Mage crosses her legs, showing her perfectly shaped thighs. Antoinette watches, her eyes looing at the Mage's legs with envy. The Mage notices, then gives a little laugh.

"Like them, do you? Looking forward to your own pair?  You have four already, why would you want to have only two?"

Antoinette shifts nervously. "I...don't know if he..."

"You don't know if he will accept you. Why should he?  Why would he want a Mamono who is willing to change her very being on the chance that he might fall in love with her?  If he doesn't love you as you are..."

"No! It's...that's not the only reason.  I...I want to do this.  I have to."

"He changed his home for me! He changed his habits, his bearing!  He treats me with kindness and honor!" Her words come in a burst. "There are places I cannot go, things I cannot do, places I am not welcome, because of how I look! I want to be at his side, close to him!  If I cannot, I do not know what I will do..." She pauses, tearing up. "When I ask him to wrap his arms around me, I do not want him to shy away!...I would...I would..."

The Mage stands. "Foolish though your reasons are, you are willing to pay my price. That is enough.  The longer we delay, the less likely you are to meet your desire.  So come, let us go to the ritual chamber..."
