Ben frowned. "Maybe, maybe not." He didn't understand why someone would create a spell like this in the first place, so it was difficult to get in their head and predict whether they would have built in loop holes and escapes. "But even if they didn't, any magic can be broken. We just need to find where it's weak," he explained. He had worked as a curse breaker, so he had some relevant experience, even if it had been years since he'd dealt with curses (and in fairness, most of those had been much more mild).

"Er — sorry I'm barely clothed," he added, with a slight flush. "I guess that's part of it."
