CURIOSITY
He wears a robe of brilliant yellow, so intriguing you wish to reach out and grasp it, but at the same time you feel compelled to stay back for fear of the hideous face that lies between his shoulders. Haunting everyone who gazes upon his cold dark eyes and wrinkled, ghost white skin. He is the sole purpose for every invention and discovery, and lives in the minds of those willing to let him control their actions. His words are as soothing as the melodious sound of running water, yet his eyes seem to scream warnings of the words he speaks. The heart of those he has control over is the dragon he cannot slay. He rarely ventures out to fight it for fear that it will defeat him and take back the victims he has claimed. But on precious few occasions, he does seek out the heart. With only their fists as weapons they fight ferociously. The battle lasts a total of five days until his worst fears come true. The heart has defeated him, leaving his victims to live their own lives free from his influence.
