"What are you going to do?" Vamier asked with a bewildered look.

"You'll see my friend." The empress replied as just over the next hill lay the silver mushroom. 

Vamier had been right. It was massive, the size of a cave possibly larger. 

"Wow you weren't kidding it's huge." The empress exclaimed. 

"Yes it is."  Vamier replied.

The empress took a few minutes to focus her energies and breathe. Then she looked up and then back to the gremlin again. 

"Alright, I hope this works." 

         She set out a magic circle of rainbow crystals to protect herself and the gremlin.  Then she grabbed the magic potion and threw it at the gigantic cursed silver mushroom. 

"Vamier you need to stand back." She told him firmly.

He immediately backed up a few feet and nodded to her.

          The empress prayed to the goddess as she took a deep breath and then spoke the incantation. Staring blankly at it and nothing happened for the next ten seconds. 

                 All of the sudden a loud boom struck as the sliver mushroom burst into these bold teal colored flames producing dark purple smoke.  She stared, mesmerized by the sight before her eyes. Never had she seen anything like it in her entire life, it was amazing. The flames died out and there lay a large pile of indigo blue dust. It glittered in the moonlight like stardust. 

"That is the most outrageous thing I've ever seen. I just saw it in front of my own eyes but I still can't believe it." Vamier told her.

"Welcome to my universe." Was her only reply.

   After a good ten minutes of silence the gremlin prince spoke almost in a whisper, even though they were alone in the forest of his land.

"Is the curse broken?" 

"It is. It will take a few hours, but those that have been affected by the course should start to heal soon." She told him.

     "Now what?" He asked.

"We wait." She told him with a glare.
