A Curse On You All

"Clever." I believe this is where I left off, the remark of course was very clever.  You know the hardest thing about looking at someone upside down? Trying to keep yourself centered in realizing they are actually on the ground and you are not.  I know that doesn't make any sense, but hang upside down for a while and it will make total sense!

"I thought so."

"You should be more careful when contacting people like myself, some of my colleagues would not find your inquiries quite as humerous and would just kill you rather than talk with you."

"So should I say thank you?" I was really at a loss as to what courtesy hanging someone upside down provided.  I did have my magic so I could burn him and free myself, but I figured that would not accomplish what I needed accomplished.

"You should, but not for this.  You are chasing the wrong people Lorentino, we are no more guilty than the pistol that fired a bullet is the real culprit, our curses only work on the active hatred of the person they are intended on killing."

"So you're saying if I want to stop the curse on Morley."

"You have to find who cursed him, no I can not tell you who that is, and I'd recommend against going back to talk to Morley as he doesn't have a lot of time even with your laughable alchemist potion." Damn these guys were good at knowing my moves, if I wasn't writing this entry years after this happened I'd think they were reading it in the past!

"Well can you at least untie me, I'm getting a head ache." He shook his head and was gone.  At least I think it was a he, could have been a she with a deep voice.  I used fire to cut the rope and landed with a thud on my bed thankfully, he was at least that kind.  I also knew I had to find out who hated Morley enough to curse him, so that was only like half the known world, possibly extra dimensions, you know no pressure or anything.  I was seriously just thinking of leaving him to his fate, if only it didn't mean he'd some how come back and make it worse for me (a fear I still have to this day). I did have another wild plan to try and figure out who cursed Morley, but to do it I'd have to kill Morley.  Yep I'd have to kill him to save him, its a Lorentino kind of thing, I'll explain tommorrow.
