I’m going to bite someone or something

I mean, do you really think leaving behind a Rougarou with separation anxiety is a good idea? Besides, he’d probably be there even if I told him not to.

And yes, Dad will serve as backup. Dragon’s blood is quite a potent ingredient, so I have a backup should mine not be strong enough, though it will have to be treated like tannerite when it comes to pure dragon blood.

I’m still keeping my rail spike on me. Force of habit, I know how some of y’all are.

Ok, I finally think I got the weakening potion done. Had to use a little of my own blood, but not too bad. Now, let’s do this shit

I am alive, brother. This is a very different spell that I haven’t worked with. Fae magic usually overpowered or matched by dragons, but this spell is wholly unnatural. Even the Unseelie wouldn’t dare merge their magic with raising the dead

Mate not feeling good. Worried about pack brother. Make herself sick. Not sleeping.

<the other rougarou and New Orleans vamps are each trying to make Georgia rest, trying to gently tug her from her books and potions, but she snaps and hisses before weeping>

Mate locked herself away yesterday. Worried. Very worried

[alice-of-hightable]

<Georgia takes a deep breath>

“Well, um, the adjudicator, they said that the elder is trying to get the souls of all contracted under the table. That wuxia lady, she said that that damned marquis got a bounty on Jardani”

<Georgia’s growl isn’t that far off from the sound of a pissed off mama alligator>

“Jude lifted the veil in hopes of gathering power to take down the elder. Daddy is on his way here. He ain’t flew in a century or two, so it’ll probably take him a bit.”

“I have protections all around the lodge if you think it’s better to head over here. I don’t know where J is or where he could be. Boudreaux is just as worried as me”

@sofiaalazwar what happened?! Why is there a contract on John?

[alice-of-hightable]

*her stubby tail makes her skirts rustle slightly. Her wings flutter and her ear flaps wiggle as she looks at her beloved*

“Yeah, there’s a contract on Bubba. I swear, I’m gonna kill that vampiric bitch. He’s lucky I don’t weave baneful magic”

*she hisses, icy steam and noxious fumes emanating from her nostrils as her eyes flash between human and draconin*

“Call Daddy, will ya? I’m worried about him, too”

Damn it, Asriel, Daddy, what the hell! What did Bubba do?!

It feels so weird having a tail, again. I mean, yeah, it’s small, but…it’s so weird having to adjust my dresses to accommodate it

[alice-of-hightable]

Attention, all frequent guests of the lodge!

Do not be alarmed. All creatures of nature, kindly pack your things and return home, this is a temporary inconvenience, I assure you.

All staff, be on the lookout for a large, silver dragon and make sure he lands safely. Also, be on the lookout for my brother. Do not bring him to harm.

I will protect my hoard

[alice-of-hightable]

Only very minor ones, most of my magic is predominantly to amplify one’s power, protections, or dealing against dark spirits…but, dragons like daddy (for the readers, i mean humans who became dragons) are thought to be a concentration of the arcane, so if the ritual is fey in origin, I might be able to work with something. Just, um, might want to send someone who is NOT fae to check in. Just as a precaution

Each of you, on both sides of the war, are about to experience a surge of increased power relevant to your true form, courtesy of the High Table's faerie network. Do not be alarmed. This is standard procedure in a magical emergency.

…Please also do not be alarmed about the magical emergency.

I will need each and every one of you to use your true form to its full advantage for the upcoming battle, because it is a battle of the wits. A battle against faerie law.

The Elder has gone into a trance, locked within an impenetrable force field. Based on the objects surrounding his body, it seems that he is in the process of performing a ritual that will consume the souls of everyone who has ever signed a contract with the High Table, transforming us into mindless thralls that carry out his bidding. This would have the distinct advantage of preventing rebellions such as Mr. Wick’s murder of the previous Elder, and would turn him into a godlike being.

For obvious reasons, I think we would all like to prevent that. Let’s begin with a brainstorming session. Please let me know if you are in a position to help by replying to this email A.S.A.P. I may be unavailable, as I am deep in research, but feel free to discuss amongst yourselves if I am not online.

Sincerely,

The Adjudicator

<voice note> Of course I’m helping. My family’s souls are on the line, besides, haven’t gotten to stretch my wings like this in almost 200 years. Gonna need to make a few things, dig up other things, but yeah. I’ll help. <rustling sounds and some minor other concerning sounds>

My mate and my little ones have not tasted true battle in quite some time. Daddy will likely be in contact, soon

Regards

Georgia Scott

“Yeah, that radio lady, Wuxia or whatever, said there’s a contract out on John. Damn it, I’m all the way in Louisiana”

*Georgia sounds like she’s about to cry*

“W-what do you think he, what do you think he did, Miss Sofia? Daddy ain’t answerin’ my calls and Asriel’s boys don’t have any connections with the city mobs, they’re all moonshiners and similar.”

@sofiaalazwar what happened?! Why is there a contract on John?
