Scintilla
The next few days pass in a blur as everyone is still mourning the loss of their guild mate, while trying to make the children who now have their emblems, feel more at home. The children are twins named Sally and Jason Hart. They are 5 years old and have never met their father and still have no idea that Newton is their father. Morgana put them under a spell that let them sleep while she searched their memories. She saw Amelia send him away when his personality changed and she put the protection spell on her children connecting them to Rowan. She saw Amelia crying and telling them how sorry she was but that they would always be safe and have a home. She also saw that Amelia would tell the children not to say anything about their father when others were around. The twins were too young to remember this but Morgana had a hunch that this information would be buried deep in their memories. When she looked into their memories she got the rough picture and gathered that Newton was changed shortly after Amelia gave birth to the twins. Which also gave her the idea that Amelia could sense the dark magic that took root inside of Newton. Morgana finished the spell and left to sit down stairs at the bar to drink. Morgana was lost in her thoughts when she felt a big strong hand on her shoulder. Staring at the inside of her cup she didn’t bother to look up, just smiled. She sighs, “things have become more complicated. I need to see the others. I’ll be gone for a bit.” Cordon nods his head, “you aren’t going alone and you know…” Morgana raises her hand, “I need to go alone. Where I need to go you can’t come. Stay here please. I’ll feel better if you stay here and watch after everything for me.” Cordon sits next to her at the bar knowing that she is giving him no room for argument so he just nods. Morgana knows she just won so she smiles into her mug and says, “well I should get ready to leave.” Cordon grabs her hand and squeezes it. Morgana smiles and nods, “it seems things are going dark again. Like they did before the war.” Cordon’s face goes dark, “do you really think that the dark war is coming to us now?” Morgana nods as she takes a drink and Cordon says in a low voice, “I will never let the dark war infect the peace that we have finally found and I will never let it hurt our family.” Cordon grabs the mug from Morgana’s hand and chugs the last of it. Morgana nods, “it's time to get ready for the shit storm that is coming our way.” Cordon nods and Morgana gets up and heads back to her room where she grabs a black silk bag and goes to stand in front of a large antique golden mirror that stands 7 feet tall next to her desk. Suddenly, Blossom appears next to Morgana’s reflection and Morgana says, “it’s time to go.” Blossom nods and the mirror begins to ripple all the way to the edges of the golden frame once the rippling is constant Morgana and Blossom walk through the mirror.
