Years had passed since Sam first received the crystal from the god. He had become a respected healer in his village, but he had also become burdened by the responsibility that came with his gift. He could never rest, knowing that there were people in need of his help. And he could never use the crystal for his own benefit, for fear of its power running out.

One day, a stranger came to the village. He was a tall, dark man with piercing eyes and a sly smile. He introduced himself as a traveler and asked for Sam's help. The man claimed to have been cursed by a witch, and no one in the nearby towns could cure him.
