    Man Tests Out ‘Flying Potion’; Dies

    His Name Was Icarus

    T here has never been a spell or a potion capable of making a wizard fly. Mr. Icarus Dart was ambitious enough to attempt to create a potion capable of giving a man the ability to fly. Not just float off the ground for a few seconds, unable to control himself, actually be able to soar in the air.

    According to Mr. Dart’s friends, he worked on the potion
    _____________________________________________________________
    for five months before testing it out two days ago. Sadly, the testing went awry. Mr. Dart drank from his potion and then attempted to fly off the roof of his Bartonburg home. Instead of flying, though, he found his tragic death on the cold street beneath him.

    Let Mr. Icarus Dart’s tragic death serve as an example not to attempt the impossible.
