Well, aren't we jumping the gun. Never hesitating to get down to business. Name the curse, and let's see if it's breakable.

( There are a lot of curses out there. And she's bestowed some of them. Who says she wants it broken. )

[deathlessness]

The curse on the Gemini Coven. The one that causes the Merge.

[And a lot of things are seeming to point towards breakable at the moment, but we'll see what Rowena says.]

[fifthbase]

That's an old curse. And a nasty one at that. Not many curses get their hooks into an entire generation. What do you know?

( How much information are they working from? )

[deathlessness]

Right now? Fairly little. Bonnie is en route to pick up the true details, but from what she shared, the curse seems to be connected to the bodies of the remaining members of the Inner Circle. Perhaps it was a Gemini scion that cast the cloaking spell in the first place?

[Something interesting like that probably.]

[fifthbase]

That is very likely. The Gemini and the Knightbridge covens' origins lie within the Colony itself.

( The two paths converged and then diverged. )

Why wouldn't they reinforce their oldest magic and keep their true machinations hidden.

[deathlessness]

It's what my aunt would do.

[So clearly the evil coven would likely do the same.]

Bonnie is getting me a list of names so I can start on locator spells, but until then I'm sure they would appreciate any information you might have about the remaining members of the Inner Circle.

[fifthbase]

Your aunt would add a flourish a shade more cruel.

( She might make the entire family line barren. But in that case, how could she harness that power. Either way, she'd find a way to be poetic and unruly. )

Where am I needed, exactly?

[deathlessness]

Let me get back to you. Bonnie is heading to get more information within the week. Right now, they're just marshalling their forces.

[Which means calling in witch powerhouses like Freya and Rowena.]

[fifthbase]

We are Marshall, then.

( But she's in. )

🎀

[deathlessness]

Good. I'll get back to you as soon as I know more.

[And with that she will say her goodbyes and get to work on formulating that locator spell.]
