“Hang on, this spell is just labeled with a bunch of question marks,” Mara pointed one out, “And is that Latin?”
“Oh ho ho ho!” Max grinned devilishly, “Let’s read this shit!”
mutare mundi
et draconi qui est in homine
sordes circa fidem adducere
adducere ad ortum novum heroibus
As soon as the spell was spoken, Max and Maya suddenly blacked out.
——————————
When their conscious returned, they suddenly found themselves in a prison cell. Their clothes were torn and tattered, and they were covered in dust and grime, but otherwise they were relatively unchanged. A horrific, pungent odor assaulted their senses, like a sulfurous septic tank got doused in skunk spray and rotten eggs. She it was just barely too much to bear.
“Gah! Fuck, what happened?!” Maya choked out, “It smells worse than shit in here!”
“I don’t know,” Max balked, “Last thing I remember was reading that weird spell in the book! Where is that book, anyway?”
“I... wait, we lost the book?!” Maya cried, “Shit! It must still be at the school!”
“Well how’re we going to get to school if we’re stuck in this cell?” Max shouted.
“GRRRAGH! WOULD YOU HUMIES KEEP IT *BUUUURRRPP!!!* DOWN?!” an angry voice shouted at them, “DON’T MAKE ME *BELCH!* COME OVER THERE!”
“Wait, what was that?” Maya went pale in the face. Suddenly, they heard a gigantic fart in the distance, echoing along the walls of the prison.
“Holy shit, dude!” Max shouted, “Did you just draw mud on that one?! That was disgusting!”
“MAYBE TO YOU HUMIES!” the voice belted back, “BUT TO US MONSTERS IT’S MUSIC TO OUR EARS! *BUUURRP!* UNLIKE YOUR WRETCHED SQUAWKING!”
“Why don’t you come here and say that to our faces, jackass!” Maya shouted.
“WHAT?! GRRRRR! ALRIGHT YOU MORSELS! YOU’RE ASKING FOR IT”
