40 Altering Memories

"This is preposterous!" Bethrion thundered, veins protruding over his neck. His face was flushing bright red, both from embarrassment and anger. He could not believe what he had heard: altering memories? He had never heard such a thing.

"Is that possible?" Lucas Feuerlon asks. "I agree that it is preposterous—but I would deem it is ambitious, even for you, High Priestess."

"I have never heard of such a thing." Orwell says, agreeing to Lucas' statements. "In my years of examining ancient books, researches, and theories in Magierstadt, I have never encountered such magic that could 'alter' one's memory. It is nothing but impossible and I could not think any mechanism on how it would work."

"Because it is impossible." Sheila answers. "There is no magic that could change something as complex as a memory."

"Then, why are you proposing it?" Orwell asks. "I consider that you would not only alter Feuerlon family's memory, but us, too?"
