"Then you’ll know that the curse starts from the place of contact, which is typically the hand, as was the case for Miss Granger, and then spreads across the body in the form of tiny, but deep lacerations. In a situation where the jewelry is gifted with ill intent, or if the giver was unaware of the curse, it becomes far more lethal as it is typically placed directly along the veins of the wrist or near the artery in the neck. What makes this curse a little different than most, is that there is a potion that stops the spread of the lacerations if it is administered in time, and continues to be administered at the proper intervals."
