Sprite Messenger, this is Melculum, one of my Disciples of Love.
Melculum tilts her head slightly when her name is mentioned.
I have been instructed by the Deity of Love to seek out her best disciple.
Do you have a Deity of Love Charm with you?
Tilting her head, Melculum lifts an amulet from her chest and raises it to your face.
See? This is it! A charm to which only the most talented and hardworking students are entitled.
Yes, talented and hardworking... And I currently have 19 of them!
Melculum proudly raises her chin.
That means anyone with 20 charms would be even more talented and hardworking than me!
Then that person would be the best disciple, guided and protected by the Deity of Love!
Melculum's hands clasp a charm tightly, and her eyes are so excited that they seem to glow.
Oh, we meet again, Sprite Messenger!
What's wrong?
Melculum tilts her head to one side.
You want to show me the charms you've received so far?
Let me gently remind you: I have 19 of them!
That's because I'm both talented AND hardworking! No easy feat!
She tilts her head again to the other side, and you can't help but wonder if her neck is all right.
Now, let's see those charms!
