🕑 Added 2024-04-25 20:57:29 +0000 UTC"Uhg... what was that?" Cookie grumbles as she is awoken by a thud. She rubs her eyes and lets out a loud yawn then starts to poke Cream's cheek. "Creeeeam, wake up! I think sometime fell off the shelf." Cookie whispers as she continues poking Cream's cheek as she begins to snore.
Cream's eyes slowly open as she grumbles, "Uhg... unf...huh...what?"
Cookie turns on their lamp then points down to the toppled over tome that fell off their shelf. "There! That's what it was! Looks like one of our tomes fell off the shelf.
The girls stretch as they slowly get out of bed. Their shirt starts to fall off their shoulders as it is too big for them. They slowly walk towards the book then bend down to grab it. Cookie's eyes light up like a sunrise, "Oh my Azar! Cream! This was the tome that Straciatella used to read to us when we were kids."
Cream lets out another yawn as she blinks a few times to focus her vision as she is still waking up, "Oh, I remember that book. She never would let us read it though and gave it to us as a gift for our 18th birthday."
Cookie taps the cover as dust falls off of it then begins flipping through the pages, "Hmm...Now that I think about we never actually read through it ourselves after she gifted it to us."
Cream's smile widens ear to ear as she pokes Cookie's cheek, "Well, what are we waiting for?"
Cream then grabs the book from Cookie then forces their body to sit on the edge of their bed, "Cream! Be gentle! This is an old tome!"
"Well, if what Straciatella said is true this tome is hundreds of years old, I am sure it can handle it." Cream says as she begins to open to the first page. "Hmmm... Now that I think about it, I suck at reading, that is more your thing Cookie. Mind reading it out loud?"
Cookie's head quickly sneers at Cream, "You know, you could benefit from some reading yourself Cream..." Cookie then lets out a long sigh, "But, fine. I am very interested in seeing what is inside, cause I don't think Straciatella read us all of it."
Cream starts quickly nodding her head, "True! True! Now, lets see what's inside this dusty old thing."
Cookie stares at the first page and begins to read, "Okay, lets see here...There seems to be handwriting here that looks like Straciatella's..."
"Within this tome lies many secrets and mysteries of the past. Please do not recite any of the spells within the side notes of certain chapters. This tome is for educational purposes for chosen personnel only."
"Whoa, there must be some really cool stuff in here then!" Cookie exclaims as her eyes light up like stars.
"Cream! Let me start reading, don't interrupt!" Cookie says as she stares at Cookie.
Cookie clears her throat, "Okay, anyways. Let me start with the first chapter here."
"The Great Spring within the Forest of Grena."
"The Great Spring used to be home to many of creatures and Ra before the fall of Umbria. Since then the spring has become tempered and dangerous. Any who drink of it change..."
"One such cases was of one of our finest mages of the high house of Grena, Lora Trupia."
Cream gasp and interrupts Cookie, "Hey, I remember reading about her in the old tomes. She was one of the greatest human mages who then disappeared."
"Hmm, weird. The tome seems more like a research tome, not a story tome." Cookie says, puzzled. "Wait, what is this. There seems to be a projection spell written here."
Cream stares at Cookie with a smug face, "I know it said not to read them, but if it's just a projection spell what harm could come from it eh?" Cream's eyebrow begin to move up and down.
Cookie sighs, "Uhg, fine I'll read the spell..." she shuts her eyes for a moment then opens them, her iris's begin to glow as she incants the spell, "ᚠᚱᛟᛗ ᛈᚱᛖᛊᛖᚾᛏ ᛏᛟ ᛈᚨᛊᛏ, ᛊᚺᛟᚹ ᚢᛊ ᚹᚺᚨᛏ ᚺᚨᛈᛈᛖᚾᛖᛞ ᛏᛟ ᛚᛟᚱᚨ ᛏᚱᚢᛈᛁᚨ."
The tome begins to lift up as it glowed with a radiant purple hue, the pages began flipping as a bright light projected from the book on to Cookie and Cream's wall. A ghostly voice sounding like Straciatella came from the pages.
"While all of Grena thought Lora Trupia to have disappeared after a fierce battle with Arch Daemons, I kept the truth from them all... While yes, her mission was to go beyond the Forest of Grena to the peninsula to fight off Arch Daemons her fate was sealed within the forest itself."
"Lora lost all her mana while traversing the Forest of Grena, something there was sapping it all away from her. She couldn't conjure food or water so she was left to the wilds to find her own resources as she traveled through."
"Unfortunately, she found The Great Spring. Since she was so thirsty, she didn't even think twice and rushed to the water source"
"As her eyes filled with glee over the site of water, she was not prepared for what would happen next..."
"As she took a single sip of water, something within the water merged with her genetic code and began to corrupt her entire being."
"Her body began to fluster as her breasts grew larger and formed giant mouths. Her skin began to flow like waves as new parts of her began to grow. The transformation was painful... but also had it's own bliss to it."
"After her full transformation, she was drowned in lust and began playing with her new body. When I found her she was covered head to toe in her own semen with each of her tongues from her lipples hanging down. I had to restrain her with a binding spell to get her to stop touching herself. As she wiggled and screamed as she could no longer feel her lustful bliss, I took it upon myself to examine the spring... As I thought and worried about. A piece of Umbria was within the depths of the lake. The power emanating from it was so strong that I couldn't even reach into it to find it. Instead, I chose to seal off the spring with a barrier so no one else could suffer the fate that Lora did."
"Since then... Lora has been under my protective care as I try to find a way to reverse the effects of her corruption. The corruption is unlike any transformation magic I have seen. While I can reverse transformations from Flan since it is a more pure transformation... this however is so dark, muggy and dirty. After everything I have tried only one worked temporarily as she would briefly gain clarity again then immediately transforms back into the corrupted form. This form of hers also has kept her from aging which in turn gives me more time to find a way to reverse the corruption..."
"I swear, I will find a way to reverse the corruption of Umbria..."
The light recedes from the tome as the pages begin to settle. The tome slowly plops down into the girls lap. Both are speechless of what they just witnessed. But, now they are quite curious to read more.
"So, Straciatella still has Lora in her care? Is she here in the Mansion?" Cookie wondered as she put her finger to her cheek.
Cookie looks up to the ceiling and lets out a sigh, "Wow... that was a lot to take in. The power of Umbria is quite scary to think about..."
To be continued...
