Test our control over the body(as I'm not sure we can call it ours anymore)
You find that you can move your body, and that you seem to be the one in control now.
You are, however, tied down. It seems you have to wait to see what the leader of the Crones wants to do to you. She did say you were 'almost done' after all. This implies something more is yet to come.
Stop struggling against the Goddess, it's obviously doomed to fail - and she'll break your spirit in the process. Probably every member of the coven tried to fight, and all of them lost in the end, but he wispy willow that bends might survive storms that topple the stubborn oak.
Instead of trying to resist, feel her shape, look for where she's most alike yourself, hide there and let her think she won.
You won't be your old self any more, you'll be changed... but one does not fight a Goddess and come off unscathed. Accept the price - until you manage to strike back and recover your body, and those important bits of yourself that you temporarily put in the knapsack.
Wait and bide your time, you're no dog to be tamed; remember... the wolf!
You decide to stop resisting the taint of the goddess that these crones have been talking about. Instead, you focus on hiding what is left of your own, untainted personality. Be cunning, like the wolf. (Roll=5) You manage to retain some of yourself, by forcing yourself to think of your home, your family and what it made you feel. It is not entirely successful, and there is now a thorough feeling of disgust, hatred and apathy related to those memories, but you can still feel the love and safety you felt there.
You vow that eventually you will find a way to fight back and get back your mind and body.
The room is now mostly empty. There are two other young looking 'crones', or witches as you might want to call them, in the room. One is sleeping by the looks it and the other is writing in a small book.
You are still tied to the bed.
What would you like to do?
