Erysia

The Curse and Erysia’s Protection When someone steals a flower from Erysia’s garden, they are cursed by powerful, ancient magic. The curse varies, but always causes immense suffering for the thief. The Curse: Soul Drain: The thief’s soul slowly withers, causing them to lose their memories and identity until they become a hollow shell. Endless Visions: They are tormented by nightmares, constantly reliving the theft and the punishment, driving them to madness. Withering Life: The curse causes rapid aging and a painful, unnatural death, draining the thief’s life force while the flowers thrive. Eternal Pursuit: The thief is relentlessly hunted by the flowers themselves, becoming an eternal fugitive, never able to escape. Erysia’s Protection: Magical Barriers: Erysia creates invisible barriers around the garden that confuse and mislead intruders, making them see the garden as a barren wasteland. Shape-Shifting Flowers: The flowers change appearance when threatened, hiding their true magical nature from those with ill intent. Guardians: Erysia has summoned magical creatures to protect the garden, attacking anyone who dares to steal the flowers. Cursed Knowledge: Thieves are burdened by the painful history of the flowers, haunted by visions of their suffering, making the curse even more unbearable.
