"I was hoping you might know of a remedy or a person who might be able to help me. You seem to have some magical ability, even if you don't know what it is yet, and you definitely have magic surrounding you," Mirage responded.

"Hm..."
Soren put down his paints and brush and stood up. After a brief stretch, he turned to Mirage. "Well, I don't really know anyone around here yet, but I'd gladly accompany you and help you find someone who can rid you of such misfortune."

"Thanks," she said. She was trying not to panic as she continued to remain a non-solid, however, she was no longer transparent, but even worse, completely invisible.

Soren didn't seem to pay much mind to her worsening symptoms. He walked a little bit away from his shop and turned to Mirage's general direction. Holding out a kindly hand, he offered, "May I have your hand to accompany you?"

"I'd love to, but I'm still non-solid," Mirage said. She began to panic as the shade began to talk to her, but now the voice was different more sinister. What's happening, she asked herself. I'm death, replied the shade. You are becoming death personified. Mirage whimpered when the voice told her this, and she tried not to panic anymore than she already was.

"If you insist," Soren said. "Let's go, then. Follow me."
He began to walk, assuming that Mirage was following along. In order to keep track of her, Soren kept conversation between him and her.
"How did you come by this city?" he asked casually.

"I was looking for an old acquaintance of mine," she responded. "I often stop here on my travels." She continued to follow him, which was easy because she could walk through things without being noticed.

"Really?" Soren remarked. "Where is this acquaintance of yours? Have you visited that person since you've arrived?"

"Well, it didn't start out as a nice visit, considering we pretty much tried to kill each other for the first few days. But yeah, it calmed down. As to where he is now, I don't know. I last saw him at a tavern," Mirage responded. She began to walk through a pole when she began to re-solidify. She got her hand caught in the pole and shouted, "Soren! Help!"

Soren looked, and his eyebrow furrowed. "Oh, would you look at that... Let's see."
He walked over to her stuck hand and examined it. Knowing that her hand actually wasn't considered part of the pole by any mean, he gently touched her wrist and traced along it to her stuck hand. Then, his own hand disappeared into the pole and slowly pulled Mirage's hand out.

"Thanks," Mirage mumbled. She was glad that she was now visible again, and realized how many people were now staring at her. She blushed and quickly took her hand away from Soren's hand. She looked away and said, "Why don't we go look for someone to help solve my problem."

"Do you think the acquaintance you've been mentioning might be of some form of assistance?" Soren inquired, waving casually at some of the staring people.

"Maybe, however after our last fight, I don't think he'd be willing to do it. He healed me using magic after a bad fight we had, which only made it worse for me by giving me a migraine. Then we got into an argument in the middle of a tavern because he's got a new girl friend..." Mirage said. "So basically, we're not on good terms with each other."

Soren wondered about that for a moment, as they continued to walk. So, treatment by magic didn't seem to be helping, and the only friend Mirage knew who even might be able to help her was on bad terms.
"What about physical treatment?" Soren asked. "Magic only seems to worsen you, after all."

Mirage grew a little nervous when Soren said something about physical treatment. "What kind of physical treatment?" she asked, skepticism seeping into her voice. She began to toy with a dagger and eyed Soren warily.
