Side quest time~! You stare at an orb on a pedestal, ponder it for a moment. It can take away any part of yourself you don't like, but you'd have to fight a shade of yourself for it to work.
What aspect would you excise, what form would it take, and how would you fight it?
The part of me that keeps me in a depressed, unmotivated state and prevents me from recovering, in bad times. It's a combination of intrusive thoughts right at a time where I can't fight them back, and a general inability to enjoy anything, so I'm not going to just say intrusive thoughts, and I care a bit less about those thoughts in my better days since I am more capable of handling them. It wouldn't solve all of my issues, because there are a lot of other changes that would be necessary in here and some that aren't purely internal to me, like getting a support network IRL, but it certainly would help me recover from bad moments.
I imagine it would be like a thick black fog made of angry scribbles, trying to squeeze me out of my will to live. I would attach a bunch of blåhajar to myself to shield me from it while I brew a potion from coffee, hot cocoa, lemons, notebooks, books about or photos of cool architecture or trains, scented candles, and pics of cuties such as @LianSrenia or @rainbowpink; lots of things that make life better. Then I put that in a backpack sprayer, so that I can spray it on that weird cloud and give it lots of psychic damage.
