- 'A big idea'
So, we can't sell the cannon as it is. Maybe to a wealthy captain? But it's so unpredictable and besides, that's just one payoff.
I've had a big idea. I'm a weaponsmith. I can do more with the cannon... unlock it's properties... make... something NEW.
Cursed cannonballs! The peak of my art AND a way to make my fortune! Salty too, I suppose.
If I can just manipulate the cursed iron, people will know that Wanda is THE weaponsmith of the Sea of Thieves! Wanda... I hate that name.
- 'Unlocking the curse'
Mood of cannon changes. Chaotic. Separate each property with... mystic symbols? Tincture of antimony? Magnetism? Sing to it? no.
Test 14: success! One part cursed iron, 7 parts black iron, 1 part rat blood, [illegible]. Cannonball made ship drop anchor!
Testing has changed ship. Curse spreading? We keep sinking her, she keeps rising. Repairing herself. Can I make more?
I'm changing too. Cannonballs affecting me. Flesh falling away. Triend protective charm, no use. How can I buy time to keep working?
Test 19: FAILURE. DAMN THIS THING! The iron has a... temper, like Flameheart. Need to test STRONGER mix! Too dangerous... unless I get Salty to do it...
