Evan waved a hand airily. "Curses are, by definition, made to be broken," he reassured her. "The conditions are difficult, yes, but they have to be possible or else the curse doesn't take. So all I need to do is do experiments to see if this curse has any of the common releases, most of which can be overcome with a little alchemy." Evan could hear himself going into lecture mode, but Miss Bridget seemed a bit more comfortable on theoretical grounds anyway.
"Even if we can't find out what your specific curse's loophole is, there's still modification that can be done to the original spell itself. That's usually spellcraft for a long term solution, which isn't my specialty, but it's pretty easy to overwhelm a spell for a shorter period of time via alchemy. I'm sure that after a bit of study it would be easy to create a potion that would alleviate your spell for, say, a night or two."
Evan sat forward in his chair. This was the tricky part. "Of course, magic is inherently built on the laws of equivalent exchange. I'm sure you're heard the stories. Nothing can be freely given or received. For every potion I make or spell I cast on your behalf, there will be a price. You're always free to say no to any price I set, but I may not always be free to negotiate. Do you understand?"
