Favourable Echo (+1) affects your roll. You roll a 7 +1 (required 9). Partial success.
 
You remember to apply the enchanted ice pack to your leg, and it feels a bit better. Unlike your pride.
 
As an attempt to salvage the situation, you ask Crystal Charm about her cutie mark.
 
Crystal Charm gathers the barley flour from the grinder, and begins to cook using the mill’s appliances.
 
Crystal Charm: “Heheh… how I got it, hm? Well, it happened just as you’d expect it would.
 
As a filly, I was passionate about magic. I’d spend my days at the library, and then I’d stay up all night to study the spells I’d found.
 
See, for most unicorns, learning new spells isn’t easy. Attuning your horn to new magic can be tricky, and sometimes, even if you manage to do it, the spell just doesn’t come out right. Or at all. So I kept trying to learn new spells, but I couldn’t master any of them.
 
Eventually, I found some dusty old book about enchanting, and my magic came to life like never before. I was able not only to learn, but to master a new spell within the same day. Better yet, I was the only unicorn in town able to cast that kind of magic!
 
So naturally, I decided to pick up enchanting as my craft, and I’ve had these gems on my butt ever since! It’s alright, Blazer, I don’t mind you staring.”
 
Crystal Charm wiggles her rump playfully at you.
 
Crystal Charm: “By the way, gruel’s almost done! Where do you want to sit?”
