Third Curse - (Drawings + Voice, backdated to the 18th) Possession And You
...hi. This is Zozo again. I know there's a lot of crap going on, but...there's something I'd like to explain. I've heard some people don't much about possession, my captain included, so I'm hoping to clear some of this stuff up since I'm a necromancer.
[She pauses for a few moments as once blank page slowly beginning to be filled with what appears to be a picture in...is that crayon?]
This is me.
This is a ghost. Ghosts aren't the only things capable of possession, buuut they do tend to do it a lot so I'll use them. Ghosts can take possession of someone and get inside their head...
And make them do stuff they wouldn't normally do. A guy I know got possessed once. He hated dancing, but once he got possessed he couldn't stop. Turns out he was just drunk, though.
[Another pause.]
...where was I?
[...]
Oh, right. Possession. Living things can possess people too, but you don't actually have to eject your soul from your body to do it. Magic makes it a lot easier. It's in some ways less effective than the soul thing, but the stronger the magic the harder it is to break free. Plus you don't even need to be near the person to do it. That's why the witch has been able to possess so many people and make them go crazy.
It's also why the grip is so strong now. Since she's got some really strong magic, most people can't just force her out like they could with a ghost.
...which is why our best bet is to kill the witch. If she's dead her spell will be broken and everyone will go back to normal.
And that's it. If you have any questions I can answer them.

We'd just completed our last warp that would bring us to the system Iscandar was in when I was brought here.

Though I understand that's not the normal welcome to this place.

...well unless you're me, but that's because people keep mistaking me for a zombie.
