"Lady Paula, if I might make a suggestion about the best way for him to repent in a short period of time?" Cain asked.
"Speak, strange creature." The Phoenix replied.
Cain sent a telepathic response so that nobody but her could overhear their conversation.
[If you make him find you the most delicious meal, then use Regression on him, followed by Phoenix Blessing set to be triggered when he reaches the Immortal Realm again, you get to watch him panic all through his third life as he fears that the curse will activate again.
That should be enough to make him beg forgiveness properly.] Cain told her.
"There is no need for you to have the book, Elder Shang. This creature has convinced me to forgive the rude one. He only needs to bring me one Lava Dragon Egg, poached and garnished with thousand-year-old Spirit Grass, and then I will forgive him and let him start over again." Lady Paula the Phoenix informed the Elder.
