"Maybe they'll be back even if the world does end," Cam joked, not considering how plausible the end of the world currently was. OK, sure, things weren't great for the Ascended, but the whole world ending? That sounded like a tall order. "Just a bunch of bitey little gourds, hopping around in the ruins of our civilization."
Cam brandished their stick at the vampire gourds, hoping that they could scare the stupid things off and not have to deal with them anymore. Maybe the gourds would be smart enough to realize they were outmatched. (Though if they were that smart, Cam would feel kind of bad about enjoying their destruction so much.) "Oh, yeah. Uh, I think I probably will, actually. Well, I had my mind made up, even went to a shrine, and then I got cursed, so that wasn't fun. But the curse is over now -- you'd know if it weren't -- so I guess there's nothing for it but to head back to the shrine."
