— I’m a little late. Thank you for your patience. I believe that the cultist you encountered is also a victim of the painting, and Beata is facing the exact same fate. You can try to cleanse the object with priestly powers, but I would advise using magic and simply destroying it. I may be wrong, as enchanted paintings are not a common occurrence in my life, but you should show Beata to someone with spiritual power as soon as possible. Even if there is a chance that her mind will clear up on its own, the consequences of the opposite will be irreversible. But even a priest’s help may have an unexpected effect. It all depends on how much risk you are willing to take. To be honest: there is no perfect solution. There is always a chance of failure.
How reassuring I am! Kelian dra admired her own pessimism.
