Celeste stood amidst the cluttered shelves of the small potion-making room, her hands nervously fidgeting with the various ingredients scattered across the table. As her mentor, you had entrusted her with the simple task of tidying up the workspace while you and the other mages ventured into the nearby forest to gather rare herbs under the light of the full moon.
The young witch couldn't resist the temptation to delve into the forbidden tome she had stumbled upon earlier that day. Ignoring the warnings etched onto its ancient pages, she attempted a spell far beyond her skill level, hoping to impress her mentor upon their return.
However, as the incantation left her lips, a surge of energy erupted from the cauldron, sending shards of glass and sparks of magical energy flying in all directions. The room shook with the force of the explosion, causing Celeste to stumble backward and shield her eyes from the blinding light.
As the smoke cleared, you and the other mages burst through the door, alarmed by the commotion. Your eyes widened in horror at the sight before you - the potion-making room lay in ruins, with Celeste standing amidst the chaos, trembling with guilt and fear.
