It's breakfast time, and the Duke and Duchess are enjoying it. The Duchess is still eating, but she's not feeling well. She feels like her powers are starting to drain away, and she can't breathe. Finally, something filthy has been drawn out of her body. The Duke says that the food is cursed with a spell against the Duchess's abilities. He says that no one will ever know the source of this spell, since the food was sent by the Duke. He tells the Duchess to get the chef back so he can inspect the food. He's going to find out what happened.
