Cam slouched into the Temple, kicking at the ground -- they knew it made them look like an angsty teenager, but they couldn't stop. They found a good spot to sit, somewhere they could stare at the shrine without being in people's way, and did just that, their gaze boring into the altar while they slumped with a miserable look on their face.
Their last visit to the Temple hadn't turned out how they'd hoped at all: instead of receiving help from the Voice, they'd been cursed -- something they'd discovered only later, when they realized they could only respond to questions with "yes" or "no." For someone who could be quite verbose, always hedging and qualifying their statements, it was a struggle. They'd come back to the Temple wondering how long this would last -- an anxious voice inside them wondered if it was permanent -- but of course they couldn't ask anyone, damn it.
Should they take this curse as a rejection from the Voice, or just bad luck?
For the duration of this thread, Cam is cursed and can only answer "yes" or "no"! (This curse technically expired a week ago but I wanted to do a thread with it anyway.)
