Chapter 9 by RivoCarnelian

Use one of your new abilities?

Mask of Fear, and Possession

Eager as you are to try out your new abilities, a simple consideration stops you from merely draining this hapless elf of her life-****. The next batch of adventurers you encounter are unlikely to be as ill-prepared as these two, and will more than likely be carrying Sun-Blessed weapons. The thought of a return to your previous existence makes you shudder, and you channel the fear of such an outcome into your Mask of Fear, contorting your face into twisted rictus of horror that causes the elf to close her eyes as she thrusts her staff towards you, chanting the words of a spell.

Taking the opportunity you swoop towards the mage, your essence flowing into her staff as you activate Possession at the same moment her spell fires. Your tattered shroud flutters to the floor as you leave it behind, the elf opening her eyes as the magical energies rip through the space you occupied but a moment before.

She looks around in bafflement, and then at what she perceives as your remains on the floor

I-I did it?! I DID IT! I'm not dead!

She exclaims excitedly, leaping for joy at her apparent victory. You chuckle to yourself from your home in her staff, while the oblivious elf carries on towards the exit to the Forest of Orgnilac, completely unaware that she carries you with her.

What do you do next?
