- I could probably help the school teacher get revenge on his students, either by killing them with the sword or another way.
- The super fan would definitely appreciate me finding their favorite book series and reading it with them from beginning to end.
The latter two would be really fun adventures, but I think I'll take the grandma soul sword! I'd really like to know what those recipes are!
