The Journey Ahead

Jamela stared at the map spread out before them, her eyes wide with disbelief. "You can't be serious," she exclaimed, her voice tinged with a mix of incredulity and exasperation. "We're supposed to travel to all of these places?"

Hank nodded solemnly, his expression betraying not even a hint of amusement. "I'm afraid so, partner. If we want to retrieve all of the fragments of Pudsai's essence and break this curse once and for all, we'll need to scour the globe."

Jamela let out a groan, her head falling into her hands. "This is going to be a logistical nightmare," she muttered, her words muffled by her palms. "Not to mention the jet lag, the culture shock, and the fact that we'll probably end up getting cursed, hexed, or possessed at least a dozen times along the way."

Hank couldn't help but chuckle at her dramatic display, a glimmer of mirth dancing in his eyes. "Ah, come on, Jamela," he teased, nudging her playfully with his elbow. "Where's your sense of adventure?"
