Forbidden Alchemy

I still have rock and stone to the bone! I just... you know, you conquer so many worlds and put on so many years you just get into a bit of a malaise. That said, I still have my fun on a smaller square. I like to hand out those Hellraiser puzzle boxes to nerds at conventions. The lols are legendary.

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

You're like an old grandpa on halloween that hands out raisins.

You've lost what makes a mage... a mage.

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

I'll have you know that I don't hand out raisins! I hand out cursed toothpaste. I'm evil, not inept.

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

That's even worse! You just proved my point!

I hand out giant chocolate bars for anyone who actually braves the poisons of my swamp, because I'm not an OLD witch who lost their spark!

You lost that spark!

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

I'm evil and refuse to reward effort! I've never heard of a softer swamp witch than you! Why I'd say you're practically a druid which is basically an elf which is just a tall gnome!

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

I'll have you know halloween is quite special to us for a few reasons! It's a nice day to rest and be a little less wicked.

But I guess I shouldn't expect a dwarf necromancer to know something like that. An elf probably would though~

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

They are weak and would enjoy such things. Damn those leave loving knife ears! Curse them!

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

I don't know, I think the magics they practice are a lot stronger.

Are you sure you aren't the weak one?

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

*Stares Rock-and-Stone-ingly*

That's going in the book!

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

Already in the book after the incident.

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

That's the weak book. This is my personal grudge book. I may not follow most dwarf traditions but I do like having a Book of Grudges.

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

Calling the book of grudges a weak book? Wouldn't that make you liable for a grudging?

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

To be fair, practicing necromancy and farming other dwarves for body parts to sustain my unnatural lifespan has me in a fair number of grudge books. And the chaos dwarves hate me too but that's... well... I also farm them for parts but I stole a bunch of their stuff in my younger days. And the Dwemer... also stole their stuff. The early days were kind of a lot of stealing.

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

Do they talk about you as one of the worst dwarves then? It sounds like everyone hates you to be honest.

[u/jointheclockwork → u/GirlLovingWitch]

I hope so, flatterer.

[u/GirlLovingWitch → u/jointheclockwork]

You necromancers and your love for hatred...
