The four members of Third Wish sat in a circle on the carpeted floor of Romeo's living room, surrounded by stacks of books and various magical items. In the center of their circle was a ripped page from an old book, which had been under a powerful glamor spell that made it impossible to read.

Romeo held a small vial of shimmering blue liquid in his hand, which he carefully poured onto the page. The liquid sizzled and smoked as it made contact with the glamor, and then suddenly, the page began to glow with a soft golden light.

As the light faded, the glamor spell dissipated, revealing the words on the page. The group leaned in closer to read what it said.

"The Golden Compass is said to be the key to unlocking the secrets," read Romeo aloud. "It is said to point the way to hidden treasures and lost knowledge, but its power is said to come with a great price."

Leon furrowed his brow. "What kind of price?"

Romeo shrugged. "The page doesn't say. What if it's cursed?."

Leon scoffed. "I don't believe in curses. We've faced worse than a little bad luck."

Sonny quickly replied "Leon we literally had to deal with a cursed demon yesterday"

Suct spoke up, his voice quiet but firm. "I have heard rumors of the Golden Compass before. It is said to be guarded by powerful enchantments, and only those who are pure of heart and true of purpose can hope to find it."

The group fell silent, pondering the implications of the ancient artifact. They knew that the quest for the Golden Compass would be dangerous, but they also knew that the reward could be priceless.

Romeo carefully folded the page and placed it in his pocket. "We'll have to do more research on this. But for now, we should rest and prepare ourselves. Tomorrow we'll look into the Golden compass."

Romeo, Leon, Sonny, and Suct made their way down the cobblestone streets towards Miranda's shop, Mystical Medallions. As they approached the shop, they could see Miranda inside, busily working on something.

"Hello, my friends!" Miranda greeted them warmly as they entered the shop. "I've just finished creating your guild badges. They turned out beautifully, if I do say so myself."

Miranda held up a small tray of badges, each one featuring a flame symbol with the gradient colors of red, orange, and yellow. There were seven badges in total, The maximum number of guild members.

Romeo and his friends admired the badges, impressed by the intricate details and shimmering colors.

"These are amazing," said Sonny, grinning from ear to ear. "I can't wait to show mine off."

Suct nodded in agreement. "They truly capture the essence of ye guild's spirit."

Romeo turned to Leon, who had a pleased expression on his face. "Congratulations, Leon. You did a great job designing these badges."

Leon huffed, looking down at his feet. "Thanks, Romeo. I just wanted to create something that would represent us as a badass group."

"Well, you definitely succeeded," Romeo said, clapping Leon on the back. "I think we're all going to wear these badges with pride."

As the group left Miranda's shop, they all pinned their badges to their clothes, feeling a sense of unity and purpose. They were a team, bound together by their shared passion for adventure, and these badges were a symbol of their commitment to one another and their guild.

Third wish guild sat at the large dining table in Evelyn's estate, enjoying a final dinner with their client. The room was dimly lit, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere. The aroma of roasted chicken and fresh herbs wafted through the air, making their stomachs growl in anticipation.
