Sure, not like we're a compassionate person or anything.

+1 and make sure she does the ritual and binding correctly.

And she releases it as soon as it's finished. Perhaps add a clause that will let it be unbound if its death is imminent, if that's lethal to it.

╞═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╡

You gesture for her to carry on. She grabs a stick and begins to draw the pentacle and the such, lighting candles and incense, and drawing the protection runes. She recites the incantation and waits.

The imp appears inside the pentacle with a burst of fire. On the first plane it's a large vampiric bat. On the seventh plane it's a strange mix between a pterodactyl and an infant. She spoke the imp's charge and it flew off.

Shapeshift into a form which won't attract attention, just in case someone walks in.

  If we want to make it to our goal, going as far as we can undetected would be in our best interests- we don't want the enemy following the panic and devastation we'd leave in our wake, right?

 "It'll take some time for the imp to return." Charlotte says, staring into the blazing fire you made. You changed form into a raven and stared into it as well with jet black eyes.
 "So, how are you?" you eventually ask. Hundreds of years of experience in this world and you can't even find a subject to talk about. It's not like she wants to know 'oh, let me tell you all about Gilgamesh' or anything like that. She just shrugs. Damned anti-social humans.

 "So, any chance I could just... go?" you ask of her, gazing into her eyes with your own jet black eyes.
 "If you wish so, then I will draw the desummoning pentacle."
Sweet, you can go back to the Other Place.

Go back home?

╞══════════════════════════════════════════-The Dread of Prague-═══════════════════════════════════════════╡

She begins to draw the pentacle with sadness in her eyes. As if you could care.
 "Okay, enter the pentacle," she says, gesturing to the pentacle crudely drawn in the soil. Desummoning pentacles are much easier to draw because you don't have to place down magical wards and all that. You step into the pentacle and she begins a short string of incantations, with each syllable she peaks lessening your earthly bonds. Eventually, the bond negates itself entirely and you feel yourself drift apart from the world and back into the heavenly euphoria of the Other Place.

You happily join your fellow swirl of colors as one entity, savoring the little time you have in your freedom.



And you're being summoned.
God damn it.
You groan as you feel a tug on your very essence as whoever magician this is calls upon you. You allow your essence to be yanked out of the Other Place. If you didn't, then your essence would be torn apart from the magician's summoning magic.

You find yourself in a dark room surrounded by stone walls and towers upon towers of books. You take a moment to study the architecture of the room, only to determine if you are in the same age as you were. This architecture you haven't seen yet; the unique contours in the corner of the room and the rounded style of the wood door in the back edge. It's different, therefor some time must have passed. You turn to the magician who summoned you; he is a tall man clad in a dark hood which concealed his entire face, but his figure is unmistakably masculine. His face was completely obscured.
 "I am Zusfadyn the Dread, thee who knows the secrets of fire and air, thee whose enemies cower before thyself, and thee who outwits thy master in a game of words. So I ask of thee summoner, who are you to summon me?" you say as you took the goat leg out of your mouth and spoke in your powerful, booming voice.
 "...What is the Other Place like? Does it contain swirling colors like the books say?" the man began asking in a light voice. What an unusual man--he doesn't seem like he wants to enslave you so far.
 "Hold on a moment--where are we?"
 "We're in Prague, of course. The year is 1271."
Well a lot of time has certainly passed.

╞══════════════════════════════════════════-The Dread of Prague-═══════════════════════════════════════════╡

It is quite rare that any entity would remain unsummoned for such a long time--perhaps traces of your name were lost and eventually dug up by this mysterious cloaked man. You ponder at the sheer amount of books that are stacked around your pentacle; a huge plethora of knowledge is at this man's disposal, and he would likely be a scholarly individual. But his intentions you do not know, but you do know that he has a mysterious demeanor about him. A wry smile crosses your face as you open your mouth to speak in a lesser voice:
 "You used high level magic and summoned a creature that may or not destroy you... to ask that question?" you ask with a chuckle before bursting into a brief laughter, "Much more entertaining than that general from the Suleiman army... So, what is your name?" The man chuckled and shook his head, his black cloak outlined with mysterious purple lining at the bottom billowing as a draft blows through the room, "You may call me 'The Sorcerer'."
 "A sorcerer? Impossible, sorcerers are from old myths. They can use magic on their own, which is impossible. Humans use us to use magic, and even so, they can't directly produce it from their body. I call bull crap," you explain with a nod. The man shook his head and began to speak in his light voice;
 "That is where you are wrong, Zusfadyn."
The Sorcerer held out his palm facing upwards to the ceiling and muttered a single word, "Brisingr." Suddenly, a small flame appeared within his palm. As the flame appeared, you feel a strange tingle on your essence.
There's no way that can be. It's impossible.
 "Nice trick. Now where's the fire elemental you have trapped that's doing that for you?" you ask. The fire was definitely real; you can feel the heat from within your pentacle.
 "Ah, no trick, Zusfadyn. I cast the spell on my own accord," he responded before closing the flame in his gloved hands, smothering the flickering red flame.
 "How did you do it, then?" you asked the inevitable question. You really are curious, however.
 "There exists a mysterious language which is different from any mundane language. It is a magic language that describes the true aspect of things, not how mundane words simply describe things. This language can be used to manipulate energy, if the incantations are learned. I know a few words, such as brisingr, for fire. I study spirits like yourself in an attempt to gather more words. You won't know the words yourself, but deep inside of you the information can be gotten. I am a pioneer of the subject, and what I do has certainly never been done before,--" the man began to lean against a pillar that was within his pentacle and he rapped his fingers against it, "--I won't try to enslave you. That isn't my goal. I only seek you as a partner, and if you accept, many benefits may come your way."

 "Interesting...," you said as you scratched your chin, "what benefits?"
 "It is possible that you may be able to use different types of magic using this language, other than the magic you currently posses. You need not incant the words for your standard magic, as you manipulate your very essence to your will and into other forms," he explained. The offer does seem tempting...
 "Tell me more about this 'ancient language'..." you further inquired.
 "The language is the very language of magic, used for magical incantations and enchantments. Not only that, but it is also the language of truth--you cannot lie in the language, for it doesn't allow you to. Also, any promises or oaths made in the language will be enforced with magic," he further explained.

 "Interesting. Let me think on the subject a moment."

"Ill be your partner...but i want to eat human flesh. No not yours or your children or even some ex lover. I require the flesh of those who care not but of themselves. The Flesh of sinners if you will. Give me theives, murderes, rapists, and the crooked merchant. You will have my partnership for as long as you want or need. Simple?"

 "I'll be your partner...but I want to eat human flesh. No, not yours or your children or even some ex lover. I require the flesh of those who care not but of themselves. The Flesh of sinners if you will. Give me thieves, murderers, rapists, and the crooked merchant. You will have my partnership for as long as you want or need. Simple?" The Sorcerer chuckled and gave a brief nod;
 "Agreed then," the man spoke as he raised his hand and spoke a few incantations. Your binding pentacle and his pentacle broke apart upon the uttering the last syllable, ending your imprisonment to your pentacle.
 "What now, then?" you ask.
 "Now, I shall teach you the ancient language. At least some of it, I barely know any of it myself. Hear my words of power, and learn the basic aspects of things. Brisingr, for fire," he says. Hearing the word brisingr creates a strange tingling in your essence again, "Why does that word make my essence tingle?"
 "You are a djinni, an entity of fire and air. The word is for the actual aspect and idea of fire. Since your essence is part fire, the word sort of reacts with your essence," he explains. You nod, and he continues;
 "Adurna, for water." This time the word gave your essence an ache. It makes since--water is the opposite of fire, so it would do your essence harm.
 "Garjzla, for light. Letta, for stop--use this to disable one of your spells. Stenr, for earth." The word Stenr gives your essence an ache, once again. Air does not equal earth. He then teaches you much more of the vocabulary, where you can speak very simply sentences in the ancient language.

 "Be warned--word your spells carefully, or else a conjured ward or something may sap all your energy until you die. Say you created a ward that stopped anything that came your way. You could easily block an arrow, but if you fell down on a mountain, it would attempt to stop the mountain and kill you in the process, as it uses your own energy. Also, if you told a ward to block arrows, the ward would only block arrows and nothing else. Word your spells carefully."

((Tell what your spell will do whenever you cast one
E.G: "Raise that stone" will raise a stone you are focused on, but "redirect the trajectory of anything thrown at me by another person without draining a large portion of my energy" will do exactly what it says and redirect the trajectory of say, an arrow, so that it passes by you. Word your spells carefully, or you may die.))
