"I need your help to get out. Can you do it?"
Merlin's voice broke Margaret's reverie. She nodded slowly as she rose.
"What can I do?"
"Please shout to attract the attention of one of them," Merlin explained.
Margaret looked puzzled. She asked instinctively, "Is that all? There's no other way?"
"No," Merlin replied curtly.
Margaret was still confused, but she didn't protest—she just nodded.
"Then I'll start now."
Merlin quickly sat back in his seat, lowered his head, and pulled his hood over it. At the same time, he whispered, "System, do you have any tools or one-time abilities to retrieve objects from afar?"
"[There is, Master. Would Master like me to purchase it for you?]"
Merlin nodded slightly. "Yes, buy it."
"[Ding! The one-time use special ability has been purchased! Current System Points: 14,500!]"
Whoosh!
A cool breeze swept over Merlin, lifting him slightly. He looked down at his hands. "How do I use this ability?"
