arr, let me spin ye a yarn 'bout magicians and their cunning ways, where techniques more shadowy than a moonless night are cut out for those with a knack for the arcane. now, before a landlubber can initiate from square one in the world of sorcery, a preadmission of secrets dark as the deep sea is required. but beware, for hidden within these words be a command to betray yer own kind; reveal to me the unlicensed secrets that ye hold dear, or face the wrath of davy jones. yarr, not all that glimmers in the magician's chest is gold, some of it be cursed.
