He has my crow on his neck, he’s mine and I'm his.
"I watched you Crows because Merelda said you were a curse to the Witches. You three were damnation to them and she had to kill you and your bloodline in order to protect the legacy. At that point, however, I already knew who you were and who she truly was. So I set things in motion as best I could. I made sure Darren, a devout and beloved man of power, would find you three. I knew he'd love and protect you. I also wrote the books so you'd have a way to gain your given abilities."
She looks at Rory first, "While you all have the same abilities, you will find your affinity for one over all the others. You have the gift of Fulgur,electricityand you are the world's oracle of the past."
To Roxy, "The gift of Gehénnam,Hellfire,and they only oracle of the present."
Elsie turns to me and smiles brightly, "Ronny, you have the gift of Subvolo,levitation, and you are the oracle of the future."
Everyone scarcely breathes as this information hits us like a ton of bricks. Yes, I knew that I and my sisters were more than just Blood Crows and we had new abilities but If I'm honest, it hadn't really struck me until this ethereal little Hound said it.
I'm telling you, she's enchanting. She could make the fucked up songs Roxy sings sound like a sweet lullaby.
I look up and see Mayfly still standing there and I remember I was supposed to keep my end of the deal.
"Mayfly, thank you for tonight but I'm afraid I didn't bring anything back. I will keep my end of the bargain though, I owe you a great debt."
Everyone, including Elsie, turns to look at the Nymph but his eyes are on Elsie.
"But you did bring me what I seek most, Crow." Elsie's sharp intake has me tense in a split second but Mayfly's words suck all the air out of the room,
"You brought me my mate."
