Chapter 19 - The status crystal

Robert, Benjamin's father, climbed the steps to the second floor where his son's bedroom was, his heart pounding with excitement at the thought of offering him the precious status crystal. He knew how important this object was to Benjamin, who had been dreaming about it for years. He also knew that this could be the solution to save his son from the disease that was gnawing at him. Arriving in front of the half-open door, he perceived his son's regular snoring, a sign that he was sound asleep. He gently pushed open the door so as not to make any noise, not wanting to wake Benjamin who needed to rest after everything that had happened to him. He tiptoed over to his son's bedside table and carefully set down the box containing the status crystal, admiring the colorful reflections the lamplight cast on the object. He smiled, satisfied, before tiptoeing out of the room, leaving Benjamin to enjoy his peaceful sleep.

Coming out of his sick son's room, the father watched Benjamin with deep affection and swore to himself that he would do everything possible to cure his illness. He knew he had to act fast because every day counted for his son. Benjamin's illness prevented him from fully utilizing his magical abilities, but the father was determined to find a cure no matter what. He closed the bedroom door carefully, as if not to wake his son, and walked to his own house, which was right next door. He hoped that the status crystal, this precious stone with mysterious powers, could bring him answers and allow him to save his beloved son. He walked with a quick but determined step towards his home, his heart heavy but full of hope. He promised himself he wouldn't stop until he found a cure for his beloved son. He was ready to do anything to save his son, even if it took years, he would not lose hope.

Benjamin woke up a few hours later, still a little sleepy and puzzled, after his father placed the status crystal on his bedside table. He was immediately intrigued by this object, as he knew it was crucial to understanding the curse that afflicted him. He rose from his bed and approached the table with curiosity mixed with a hint of apprehension to examine the status crystal more closely. He felt like a prince facing an enchanted mirror that held all the secrets of his destiny. He discovered that the Status Crystal was actually a magical tool that allowed all of the information of the person holding it to be displayed, but only the person holding it could see that information. He stared at the crystal, as if hoping it would reveal the secrets of his illness and how to overcome it. He knew his father would do everything in his power to save him and he felt grateful and hopeful for the future. He reminded himself to focus on that hope and keep fighting his illness. He lay down again and closed his eyes, feeling more optimistic than before thanks to the arrival of this magical object. He promised himself not to give up and to continue to hope for a cure.
