Lorelai flashed Hazel one of her rare grins.  She knew she had potential,  fear was a basic instinct and controll over it had mind-boggling implications.  She was determined to ensure Hazel reached the pinnicle of her power.  [color=f26522]"I'm pleased to hear you accept Hazel, once we'll begin work once you've finish that volume.  In the meantime however,  I would like to ensure my new apprentice's safety."[/color] She retrieved a statue of a frog carved from jade with ruby eyes from her pouch.  Alexina and Vespa would recognize this as the vessel she'd bound Rovulug, Lord of Ruin, into after the demon lord had failed her in the battle against Hector.  [color=f26522]"If you find yourself in dire need break this and remind Rovulug that I nor hell will accept a second failure,  also remind him who he fears most."[/color]

Lorelai nodded and shared a brief look with Vespa as she voiced a concern that had been on her mind from the moment her love had spotted even small traces of Fenros' passing.  Lorelai had no intention of allowing Fenros to...lead Elina astray, no matter her opinion of the girl as a witch,  she was a sister.  Also Vespa's blood,  and she wasn't about to allow harm to come to either of the Ruvinas if she still had breath left in her body.  Despite how she was feeling now there was plenty of that breath left.

[color=f26522]"I wonder if it is...wise to inform your sister about Fenros being here.  Perhaps we could conjure some other excuse to keep her in the castle for the time being?  Even if they discover us here they'd have to fight through some of the most powerfull witches I've had the pleasure of knowing,  not to mention my sweet making sure their trip here was...eventfull."[/color] She squeezed Alexina's had as she let the pride she had in her lover's power show on her faces,  then her eyes took on a mischievious twinkle.  [color=f26522]"Besides, there's more of my blood than mortar in these old walls, and thanks to Medusa's assistance I've managed a feat that would leave my grandmother in awe.  Suffice to say that an attack here without anything less than a small army would be suicidal."[/color]

Lorelai winced again as small shocks ran up her spine.  Binding such an entity had been foolhardy in the extreme, but her will was mighty even if her body was weakened.  [color=f26522]"Vespa, if you need an excuse to call your sister home I may actually need a curative to embolden my sickly spirit, my bindings are catching up to me of late, and your sister's hands have always been steady at the pestle."[/color]  She looked to Hazel.  [color=f26522]"Or perhaps Hazel should go?  You do know how stubborn she can get when you display your concern."[/color]
