Post by: Neovereign on March 05, 2018, 10:51:19 PM
> You are Alice Margatroid, a magician living within the Forest of Magic.

> You've started to look into the matter of your dreams. It's not impossible that it could be the result of someone's magic in Makai, but there are other possibilities you've considered. You've just left the mansion after a fine meal and researching variables and causes for the dreams. You've told Meiling that you've considered returning to Makai...

> There have not been any recent major developments with the Glamor Mushrooms, the only possible one being Yuyuko's increased hunger, so she claims, being possibly the first witnessed negative effect.
>"I'm a magician. I figured out how."
> "Nu uh! We know you used the mushrooms." She points.
