"No trying to escape. No harming myself, any of my servants, or yourselves. No magic, or rituals, or anything else, to counter the miasma. Allow me to drain your magical energy each day. Allow me to cast a single spell on you, each; it will not harm you directly, nor remove your free will. And, finally, do not struggle against the ritual, when it comes time. It will be a simple matter, of fully allowing the miasma into your bodies. In fact, once it is complete, you will be free to go," she said with a smile. "I will not hold you here any longer, against your will, even if you do not agree to my terms. And if you do, while you will have guards watching you at all times, and will attend to me daily, so that I can limit your divine energy, you will otherwise have free reign of my home; you will be fed, clothed, and given your own rooms to rest in, as well as access to my library, training yard, and other facilities, as you see fit. You will be treated like guests, and not captives, aside from being unable to leave the grounds."
