What was with Annika’s coven wanting to dissect themselves? Annika stared as Frankie cut into himself. He did so with more precision, like a surgeon, but it was still shocking and a little disturbing. However, Frankie seemed to understand the concept of first aid better than Rohan. A wadded-up cloth inside the gaping hole of his chest did not seem hygienic. Annika glanced back at Rohan’s chest, frowning slightly.

[color=#663399]”I’ll take the right side then,”[/color] Annika responded after Rohan volunteered to shape the left side. [color=#663399]”If we are making something that connects to flesh, something that would adhere to flesh would be better, but titanium won’t work because of Finley.”[/color] Annika looked at Finley before glancing at the empty glass container that was set before them. Perhaps Annika was overthinking this. They were using magic and their powers to form everything after all. Any precious metal would probably do.

Annika pulled the glass container closer, sighing. She could tackle this problem first. She would have to cut herself; there was no way around it. Even if Finley was coming on a little strongly with their interest in everyone’s blood. 

[color=#663399]”How much blood do you need?”[/color] Getting a drop was easy, but if the fae required more than that, Annika would have to make a deep cut or even something as extensive as a blood draw.

Callaghan smiled at Cassie, walking a step closer to her as she questioned him about the professor. [color=#B22222]”He and I have worked closely since I started coming to the school. Being a dragon from a different world, it is nice for us to compare notes, plus, Mikkail has a wide range of knowledge from his travels that I eagerly question him on as often as I can. I think you’ve impressed him Cassie. Honestly, you have nothing to worry about. Just be you and be engaging.”[/color] Cal nudged Cassie with his arm and held the library door open for his companions.

Cal walked the familiar aisles of the library, even though they shifted and curved. The library had been one of the first locations Cal had discovered during his first year at Strange Academy. And he had spent nearly every day in the library since. Wandering the rows of books, fingering the pages, and seeking comfort between the lines. If Haven was the twins' sanctuary, this was his. He helped Willow and Cass navigate the library's unique features until they reached their destination.

[color=#B22222]”These sections house religion, history, and politics. Unfortunately, we don’t have access to Grimories, or I would suggest looking there first. Cassie, you seem the most familiar with the trials Mikkail mentioned. Why don’t you see what you can find? Oh, and find anything on the planet Krodha. I know a bit, but a refresher never hurts.”[/color] He glanced at Willow, thinking about what she could look up when Nicky spoke. [color=#B22222]”Mikkail was writing in his native tongue. He refuses to teach me the language and has nothing in his office for me to learn from. I’ve checked.”[/color] Cal crossed his arms, still looking at Willow. [color=#B22222]”Willow, do you think you could look for books related to Heinrich Krammer? I’d start with the history, but you might also find something relevant within the politics section. Nicky, could you help me over in the language department? I have a theory, but could use an extra set of eyes,”[/color] he lied. Truthfully, Cal had nothing, and that frustrated him, but it also empowered him. Callaghan never shied away from a challenge.

The language section was further over and would provide some distance from the others, so Cal could bring up his concerns with Mikkail.
