On the floor, where Tear had thrown the book, was an old slip of paper.

She didn't see anything of use in the book. The paper caught her eye, so she went to it, looking it over.

"To reverse the effect of one the nastier spells, there's a dispel on the very first page. To direct the effect at someone else, simply point at them." The note read.
Livvy realized that struggling was only making it worse, so she just sat still.

Tear casually opened the book and read the spell aloud, pointing at Olivia as she said it.

A line of white energy shot from her finger. A moment later, Livvy was free. She stood, brushed some dust off, and grabbed the book. "Alright then, lesson learned. Don't fuck with the spellbook."

"But epic weapon gained. I now have the power to inflict that on people! THAT IS AWESOME!" Livvy said. "It's like how cops get tased so they don't go around randomly tasing dudes."

"It's a book of magic. It was intended to be used as a weapon." Livvy said. "I can't think of another purpose for a spellbook."

"Well, I would be lying on the floor, unable to retaliate in any sort of way. He'd have to be a complete monster to take that opportunity. If I were a bad guy, and that happened to whoever was chasing me, I'd thank my lucky stars and get as far away as possible." Livvy said.
