[Welp, zero to assassination attempt? Just what happened to make this kid so suspicious? He was locked up, but until now Henry assumed that was for keeping people out.

Henry can't help but laugh at the last accusation. Bravery and cowardice had no meaning to them, and they'd done worse things on the battlefield than off a child.]

No, no, I'm not being euphemistic! You're under a curse that's causing you pain, and I can undo it. Maybe even send the curse off back home to its caster, nyahaha!

[Of course Henry kept their voice down, but they got excited at the thought of working some magic. Now that he could examine the effects up close, the curse wasn't too dissimilar to the standard killing curses back home. Shortness of breath, palpitations, messed up blood pressure... the main difference being that those killed within the hour, while this one was just nibbling at the kid.]

Before I do, what'cha locked up for?
