Once upon a time there was a blob with the power to disenchant magical items. She had been created by a hydrus torrey. The torrey’s owner had foolishly gone to Merena the sea witch, enticed with tales of Merena granting pets a special blessing. Naturally, both pet and owner were distraught to learn what Merena’s power really did. The torrey wished to remove the curse that Merena had cast on him, so he created the blob in hopes that it could dispel the curse. Sadly, the blob was unable to dispel Merena’s curse, only being able to remove magic from inanimate objects. Deemed a major failure, the little blob was abandoned in the Shadowglen woods.

Fortunately, the blob managed to make friends among the ghosts and creatures who lived within the dark forest. As time passed, word spread about the blob’s ability to dispel magic. She began to see many colorful characters approach her for her services.

One day the little blob was approached by two creatures, a common torrey and a blacklight mallarchy.

The common torrey spoke, “We heard you could render magical items powerless. So we came to see if you could dispel the aura around some strange magical items that have been appearing lately. See, some crazy lady has taken to possessing various citizens of Subeta. And every time someone gets possessed they create some weird object that spawns a horrendous monster of great power. These things are no joke; one of them was capable of demolishing the city of Ziara in two shakes of a manchu’s tail!”

“So can you help us?” pleaded the blacklight mallarchy. “Seriously, we’re desperate for anything that can be used to stop these weird monsters emerging from possessed objects.”

The little blob agreed to help and requested the pets feed her one of the possessed items. The torrey and mallarchy awkwardly glanced at each other. The mallarchy shook his head and sighed.

“We wanted to bring one of these things to you,” the mallarchy began, “but everybody just destroys the accursed things. All we managed to get is this Mortcini. We fought one of the monsters that was created by those possessed items. It used this Mortcini as its helper in battle. We aren’t sure what this thing does on its own, and people don’t want to take any chances with something one of those fearsome monsters dropped. So we were told by our friends to destroy this thing right away.”

The little blob looked intently at the small minion presented before her. The mortcini blinked then let out a yawn.

“Your best bet is to bring me one of these possessed items you speak of,” she answered. "I am unable to remove the innate magical powers of living beings. Nevertheless, I will take this creature under my care.”

The other two pets moaned and left, muttering to each other.

Over the next few weeks, the blob noticed the Mortcini liked to collect magical ingredients. The minion didn’t mind sharing what it collected, so the blob heartily consumed the ingredients. She would rapidly grow full because she was being nourished by both the physical matter of the items and the magic they possessed.

Several months later, a panicked fester flew into the blob’s domicile.

“Ah, Lovejoy! Come quick! Something’s gone horribly wrong!” cried the fester.

Lovejoy followed the fester to a clearing and was horrified to discover a bunch of Shadowglen Trufflers turned to stone!

“Goodness gracious!” the blob cried. “What happened to these poor creatures?”

“I know what’s going on,” a graveyard ghostly spoke bitterly. “Some legeica has cast a spell turning all the trufflers to stone. Apparently a curse was put on her, changing her appearance into a Sweety Dead pet. In order to break said curse, she needs to collect the essence of a certain mushroom. Of course, the trufflers are renowned for their ability to find mushrooms, so the legeica turned them to stone so she can easily collect them and utilize them for her plans.”

“What’s…a sweety dead pet?” Lovejoy asked.

“It’s a special line of plushies the Zombie Den sells,” answered the ghostly. “They are quite popular, even having fans outside of Shadowglen. Seems with that much popularity, it was only a matter of time till someone created a potion to change pets into such a form.”

“If the Sweety Dead color is so popular, why the desperation to reverse a spell that makes you look that way?” wondered a Shadowglen Tree Blub. He had literally seen the trufflers turn to stone before his eyes, and hearing this new information added feelings of confusion to the feelings of uneasiness he already had.

“The legeica in question is very vain and shallow, that’s why.” the ghostly responded with gritted teeth. “I learned all this because I removed my ghostly cloak and was able to get close enough without her noticing me.”

An unknown voice piped up. “Isn’t there someone in this area who can break curses?”

Everyone looked around in confusion until the voice spoke up again.

“Over here!” it directed.

Next to some wild brush sat a Dandybunny.

“Err, ah no.” the fester responded. “If you’re thinking of Lovejoy, she is only able to remove magic from non-sentient things.”

“If only we had a princess to help us,” lamented a Grosseries Infected Turnip.

“A princess? What do you mean?” Lovejoy asked.

“ I heard stories about princesses who had the ability to break any spell or curse,” the turnip responded.
