Madam Doll froze.
She had indeed never tried that.
Ever since she had changed from a doll into a body of flesh and blood, she had lost her doll form's method of storing energy, leaving her with no choice but to use her own body as a vessel for mystical Cursecraft energy.

For an instant, she even experienced an overwhelming illusion that she was still the doll
