What's next?

A relic

It's the night before the big wedding and all of the women in the Ringer Mansion are too busy preparing for the festivities to spend any time with you. You're not really disappointed since you can still have sex with anyone you want even after marriage with Alexandra, but you do feel as though you should be doing something tonight to commemorate your last night as an unmarried man.

You're pacing around the mansion, bored out of your mind, when you notice the light in Nasim's bedroom and you decide to go in. Her door is ajar, since there is no need for privacy in the mansion, although you haven't touched her since the incident at the beach. When you enter the room, Nasim is sitting on the floor with her back to the foot of her bed, staring intending at the computer on her lap. She's wearing the same, skimpy dress from when you had first met her. She looks up at the sound of your footsteps, and her expression is neutral. No fear or joy, just neutral. She waits for you to speak.

"What are you doing?" you ask.

"Research. As you commanded," Nasim states simply.

"It's been a week. Do you have anything?"

Nasim pauses, as if she's about to say something, but she doesn't reply, so you prompt her.

"Go ahead. Tell me. If you've been hiding something from me to plot against me, I'll find out and this time I won't be so kind. I've let you continue to live a great life, and you're well aware of how powerful I am."

Nasim shakes her head furiously. "No, no," she says repeatedly. "You mistake my hesitation. I know I'm defeated and I'm in your debt."

"Then what is it?"

"I've found a few minor magical relics, nothing of use to you. Keep in mind, this is a search I've been on for years. It takes time, often because people who possess such items of power are careful not to flaunt their power."

You smirk, understanding the thinly veiled reference to you coming out publicly as The Ringer.

"I did find one interesting relic and did some research, but as far as I can tell, you have no use for it," Nasim says.

"What is it? What does it do?"

"It's an ancient jade amulet from Japan that grants its wearer longevity and virility, 2 attributes you already have from the genie."

It's true, you don't need such as relic, but since you have nothing else to do, you decide it's worth looking into.

"Well, it couldn't hurt to accumulate some magical items for a rainy day, right? We could start a vault of magical items even. Alright, tell me where it is."

"I know who possesses it, and I can divine their location with a simple location spell."

"Great. Show me," you say, rubbing your hands in anticipation.

Where is it?
