Alexander had conducted considerable research on breaking curses.
However, the curse afflicting Amelia was no ordinary curse; it was one deeply embedded in her bloodline, cast by an ancient dragon that had lived for centuries.
Alexander's expertise in curses was limited to those affecting humans.
The realm of draconic curses was still uncharted territory for him.
Nevertheless, Alexander believed that all magic in the world shared commonalities, and with enough time spent studying, a solution could always be found.
He closed his eyes and focused intently, using the power of his soul to scan Amelia's body.
During this process, Alexander could clearly see the patterns of the curse's power clinging to her blood vessels.
About five minutes later, Alexander released his hands and stood up, pacing around the living room.
"The curse has penetrated deep into the blood vessels; it seems beyond salvation at this point."
