The Archewizard Dora felt elated. He was only some steps away from saving the donkey, all he needed was the Dragon's soul and magic. With this, he could protect the donkey from the witch's curse by temporarily changing his race, age and gender. Basically the donkey had to become someone else for a short time so the witch's curse can't target him any more.
Targetted magic spells are extremely dependant on what the Status screen shows to someone, and if enough parametres are different from the target, the witch can cast any spell at it from afar.
It was just poor luck that this donkey accidently broke the legendary pot of Miasma, and the only reason they didn't kill it yet was because the castle itself was untraceable, disconnected from the outer world. But a castle is not a place for a donkey to roam in!
That's why he decided to give his all to save the donkey, and not because the donkey ate through his entire pile of paper about beard growth he researched in the last decade.
At least that'Dora likes to think so.

With soft, careful steps he opened the storage door. The ritual could be done at night without any light, so he hid in the shadows from prying eyes. Slowly he grasped the glass the brain was in and shook it slightly.
Then he placed it on a flurry of red strokes carved into the ground. Each stroke dug 4 centimetres deep and 2 centimetres wide. The strokes all originate from a couple of blue balls floating above the ground.
The Archewizard Dora placed another empty bottle before the bottle of dragon brain and folded his hands together. "Ritual 'Soul Containment' commence."
