Uncle Tio's death was tragic, even though it has been almost eight years since his death, me and the rest of the caravan are hurt, still wishing he was around to help us. He always knew the best solutions to solve our problems. Not only did he leave behind inspiring stories and wonderful memories but he also left behind tragedy and suffering.

The caravan didn't lose one.. but two people that day. Lime decided to leave .. to broaden her horizons. I wanted her to stay but my pleading didn't change her mind. So I said my goodbyes. Days came and went and the caravan moved from city to city, dancing and frolicking in the streets by day and campfire by night. We met a strange caravan one day. They were horribly rude and they smelt of a city dump. I left to go dance by the waterfall. I was gone for about maybe three hours not even that maybe two when I decided to return home. When I got there it was strange, everyone was sitting no music was playing. nobody was dancing.

"Is everything OK," I asked out loud. Heavy sighs filled the air. Mother stated "The other caravan that was here, put a curse on us."

I let out a little laugh not knowing the seriousness of what she just said, but over the next few weeks mostly everyone got sick, stopped dancing and singing and was afraid to go outside. One of my sisters jumped out of bed screaming "snakes they are everywhere," as she was shaking out her clothes, but as I scanned the room and checked every corner, there was none. It was then I decided to travel to the witch and ask for her help.

"It's a curse,' She spoke as she stirred her brew, "called the Seven Veils Of Illusions."

"Can you remove it?" I asked voice trembling. "No," She quickly said, "This curse is too powerful for me to overcome, but if you want to help your family this is what you must do, listen carefully for I will only say it once."

I nodded my head and listened to each word she said. "You must travel the world and find the eleven fragments to the orb of Illusions, after you find them you need to go to the city where you will find a brazier, put the fragments inside that will summon the unforgotten God he can help you with the curse, the fragments are roundish I can't tell you no more good luck in your travels and let your heart lead the way." The witch said.

As I was about to ask her something, she vanished leaving behind a puff of smoke. Not knowing what lays ahead I returned to the caravan. I left the next morning, leaving the caravan under the watch of a few nurses and began my travels in a place known as Celtic Ireland.

A lot of women heroes out and about these days, and I can see you're one of them (out to rescue an entire caravan no less). Best of luck!
Illusionary magic is one of my fields of interest, should you need any advice, feel free to write.

Hmm. Lime only recently told me she had a sister... and... I'm not going to comment further on that.
You're in luck, though. I don't know anyone that knows more about gypsy curses than the fruitbat does. Why do you think I'm holding my tongue? *wink*

I Renno the white Indian have faught Numorous foe. Yet when i faught Kizzie, it was a hard thing. I was defeated most quickly, i thought i had her she was almost dying. Then she fled from the room. I followed but then she was healed somewhat. She beat me in the duel. Fare and square. Though magic won the day, i still say You are a Mighty woman Miss Kizzie.
