Elvirus Flashcards
The beautiful Enchantress! It is you!
Yes indeed! Afterall, it’s best not to judge a rose by its thorns, for it is the bloom that holds its true beauty.
But, but-
That’s right! I am the old hag you so cruelly spurned. I am Elvirus, the Enchantress
If you would have appeared to me as you are now, I wouldn’t have hesitated to kiss you.
That would have been too easy!
Well, I am certainly ready now.
Oh really? I don’t think so!
I command that–
You command! You arrogant, self-centered human
You shall pay for such insolence!
Fool! ~spell~ You shall be a tasty morsel indeed
What do you mean?
Your soul is mine forever
My soul?
It’s a little game I play… Kiss the hag you win, spurn the hag you die!
But I can give you anything! gold, jewels…
Silence ~spell~ I care not for material things. I bargained for your soul. What little there is…
I’m sorry for any misunderstanding. Why don’t we discuss this another time–
Not so fast! ~spell~ I’ll give you a second chance, but with a few conditions
Which are?
I’m giving you a mission! Nothing too difficult. The only problem I see is… If you were to fail. Of course I would get your soul, but now I want the souls of all those who reside in your kingdom!
What is this…mission?
You have one year to find someone who you can truly love and earn their love in return
Is that all?
You, your castle, and all who reside there, shall be enchanted
Done! And when I find this maiden to love, what becomes of you?
I am so certain that you shall fail, I will wager my soul in exchange for yours.
That certain, are you?
You have one year to find your maiden. And if you don’t, at the stroke of midnight you and your kingdom will be mine!
One year you say? I will have no problem with that! What happens next?
That’s for you to decide! ~book~
What’s that?
The story of your life!
My life? But my life isn’t over yet
Neither is this book! The beginning pages will remain the same. “Once upon a time there lived a selfish, cold, and arrogant Prince!”
I beg your pardon?
“One day he heard tell of a magical, and gorgeous might I add, visitor who had just arrived at his kingdom” Oh now this is getting really juicy!
I don’t understand
You see my dear, the beginning of your story may already be written, but the ending… Is up to you!
Whatever you say! I feel as through I’ve won already!
Oh and one more tiny thing…
Name it!
Your outward appearance. That handsome face of yours, it will have to go. Nothing very drastic. You shall just appear to others as what you are in your heart. Is it a deal?
Oh, that was smooth!
Well, well, well. I see you two are hitting it off right from the start. Very clever how you forced her to stay.
Elvirus! You tricked me!
Look who’s talking. Giving her the book. Thought you could make it easy on yourself.
Then I’ll just go up and tell her about the curse
Ha! You do that! I’m sure she’ll be putty in your paws!
Maybe she will!
I said that she had to love you, not pity you. If I were you, I’d get busy. You seem to be running out of time. Good luck, lover boy!
I have to get out of here. I have to get back home!
The girl has a stronger will that I had imagined. This could be very dangerous for me. I must dispose of her while I still have the chance!
Let’s go…home
Curses! Curses! How could I have let her slip through my fingers? We will meet again my dear! Oh, and Beast! You may have won the battle this time…but the war has just begun!
But not soon enough!
What a wonderful party. Did I miss anything?
Bella! Where is she? What have you done with her?
Why do I get blamed for everything?
Where is she?
She took off the first chance she got. You gave her the key, remember?
I don’t believe you! she wouldn’t leave me!
Ha! I guess she didn’t really love you after all.
But she said she loved me?
Liar! She never said she loved you! You were the only one blabbering of love.
You’re right. She never did say she loved me…
Pity!
Don’t listen to her. Bella does love you!
Look at the clock ticking away. It will be midnight before you know it. I’ll be back at twelve to collect a few things!
Hurry! Hold tight to the book! Close your eyes and think…
That will be enough of that!
Elvirus!
Oh, I see you’ve been reading all about me! What a shame.
I am going back to him
I think not. Give the book to me.
Don’t do it. You need the book to be transported back to the castle
Yes, and I need to keep you here, far away from the beast. I do not intend to lose this wager. Give the book to me NOW
Never! ~(wolf fight happens)~
The clock it’s midnight! I’ve won!
No you haven’t!
What is the meaning of this?! You should be frozen!
Your power doesn’t affect me anymore!
How can this be?
You’ve forgotten the most important part of your game…
Which is?
Love! I love him!
WHAT!!! Love! that is impossible.
And I know that he loves me!
But he’s hideous, he’s an animal! You don’t love him… you just pity him.
I love him
I could make you a Prince! A man of your dreams!
I love him with all my heart!
NO
and nothing you can do will ever stop me from loving him!
Stop speaking of love! It is destroying me
I love him!
Destroying me… NO NOOOOOOO
