8 enchantments

[iknowmore]

I'm starting to think this place is much too fond of me.

The minute you start thinking that is the minute this place proves how much it really despises you.

[iknowmore]

Fortunately, if previous events repeat themselves, I will only be here for twenty-four hours or so.

[downrightlinear]

But it's the weekend. Sometimes these curses last for a couple days.

[iknowmore]

An extended holiday, then. I suppose my younger self would be more aware of what's happening.

[downrightlinear]

That's probably the most optimistic way I've ever heard anyone approach this situation.

[iknowmore]

Yes, well, this happens frequently enough that I've had time to get used to it.

[downrightlinear]

How many times has it happened?

[iknowmore]

Arriving here? Only once. But I've lost count of how often I find myself in other worlds. A hazard of the job, you might say.

[downrightlinear]

And what kind of job is that, exactly?

[iknowmore]

The regulation of the use of magic, broadly speaking.

[downrightlinear]

Something like that seems a little hard to keep track of.

[iknowmore]

It is. I do have assistants, at least.

[downrightlinear]

I hope you pay them well.

[iknowmore]

We're all government employees, I don't handle the wages myself.

[downrightlinear]

I hope they pay them well.

[iknowmore]

Very well indeed.
