	Annika watched Jack age himself to save the babies and break the pentagram. Her attention became torn when Runa spoke up once more. They presented them with a horn, declaring that if one of them could drink the contents, they would give them the portion of Stephen Strange’s soul they held. Prudence took the horn and attempted to drink from it; however, she could not drain it of its contents. Annika was unfamiliar with the story and hoped Klara would fill them in. Annika looked back at Jack. Max. Max and Jack. Jax. 

	Annika fingered her necklace as she battled with herself. A shift in the wind brought a sense of peace to Annika. For a brief moment, Annika could smell the trees, the ocean, and safety. Of course. Annika smiled. 

	[color=#663399]“Niá:wen, mother.”[/color] Annika walked away from her group and held her arms out to greet the wind like an old friend. She shut her eyes, letting her ancestral power surround her as she communed with nature.

	Visions filled her head. She smelled the salt from the Atlantic Ocean, tasted blood as it coated her tongue, and felt the tingle of raw power slide up her arms. Annika opened her eyes; a brief crackle of electricity filled them before she dropped her arms and stumbled back.

	She looked up at Jax and worried about her bottom lip. They were trying to use themselves as the power source, and it was killing them. They needed something as strong and pure as the babies. Or they needed to kill the babies. The good of the many over the few, but also, the future vs the past. Annika shook her head, not ready to make that decision and turned to look back at Runa. 

	[color=#663399]”The ocean. More specifically, it is the one that lies to the east of us. You want us to drain the sea.”[/color] There was no way.

	Annika looked past them into the Sanctum. It contained some of the most powerful items of magic known to man. There was something in there. Annika could feel it. She pushed past the others, back inside and started her search.
