Okay, I don’t know how to lift the curse! I don’t even know how to lift my own curse! I can only communicate via this quiz format and let me tell you, it is HELL. Maybe having Ross as your mom will be fun! She can tell you all about dinosaurs and have a pet monkey. I mean, she will be just insufferable 90% of the time but it could be worse.

Ugh, FINE! I might know a guy who can help you.

His name is Rudlefund the Righteous and you’ll find him in the smallest cave between the Forest of White Wind and the Tower of Marlug the Fair. Oh, and sometimes he hangs out at Bennu. You’ll have to bring him a cassette of some Ariana Grande songs to get him to help you because he’s crazy about her but he stopped understanding technology in early 1981. Please don’t tell him I sent you.
