Enhola Gaye - The Books that Bind

Her pulse pounding and her irritation surging through her, Ehnola gathers her will. Quietly Gaeloraxus whispered encouragement and recommendations to her. Even though she was was ready to be rid of the often obnoxious spirit, she also knew that it knew more about Magic than she did, and it had never lead her astray in this regard before. She was glad she did, as she could feel the spells trying to get away from her. His recommendations allowed her to wrestle the power back under control, although it twisted and bucked more that she recalled ever having to deal with before.

The shadows around her swelled and surged, forming first menacing man-shaped shadows that quickly began to shift and spread, becoming writhing masses of shadowy shapes and tentacles. The sound she generated started as a low bass rumble of threatening masculinity, but as she began to move forward, the sound began to echo and resonate through the townhouse. With a final surge of power the statement "get the f&%£ outta my house" boomed out from her so loud she could barely hear the crack and shatter of the remaining windows blowing out. A surprisingly high pitched pair of screams preceeded two teens charging out of the kitchen and through the sliding back door. A clatter of something metallic clanging against the tile floor sounded behind them.

Ehnola knew that she had really lost control there at the end, and was quietly thankful that the looters were so easy to spook. It took less than 30 seconds to make sure the house was empty of other people.

Ehnola trembled with exhilaration for a long moment before she dared check her house over, the windows were going to be an issue so once she had called 911 she called her insurance company and they agreed to send out a glazier and a locksmith. The police arrived and took a statement for what it was worth, the thugs had run before Ehnola had had a chance to see them.

She began to clean up the mess once the police had given her permission to, it made for a late night and once that was done she called Marygay who was shocked at the news. People got robbed every day and she was just another statistic in a long line, as she lay in her bed that night she wondered if Marygay's mentor was responsible. There was no evidence to say she was but it did not stop her from thinking about it, finally, she drifted off to sleep and dreamed about her love.

The police showed up with better-than-average response time, but still well after Ehnola had finished taking pictures as requested by her insurance company. As she was surveying the damage, which was pretty extensive even before she broke all the windows. At Gaeloraxus' suggestion she swept the house with her Sight as well. Other than the patina of disrespect, anger and bitterness that was splattered like a layer of emotional graffiti over all the damage she couldn't see anything, but Gaeloraxus hmmed and hawed in her mind. Eventually she teased out that he thought he saw signs that someone had been using magic to scan her space, obviously looking for something.

The police took their report and the insurance company said an adjuster would be out tomorrow afternoon for their version.

During her call with Margay, she was invited to come spend the night at the Plaza. Marygay speculated that Rhodes, or his organization, could be looking for her as well. Both Gaeloraxus and Marygay oddly echoed each other in saying, "Maybe it's a good thing that you didn't keep the stone."

Ehnola suddenly felt like all this pain was worth it, she had quite forgotten about Rhodes and now had a night with her love. Talking things over with Marygay had brought out her feelings, she not only had someone whom she could sleep with, but she also had someone she could talk to. Having a friend at a time like this was worth its weight in gold, Grazia was another kettle of fish entirely. Ehnola wanted to ask about the item but dared not, she figured Grazia would have cooled down a little by now but all the same she would still be pissed at Ehnola for damn near killing her charge.

The following morning, Ehnola called in sick, her employer was understanding about it so she had a day to organise all the work. There were decorators, painters, glaziers and a locksmith. Ehnola did not want to stop Marygay from doing her normal work so she returned home and got out her books to continue her study, which would please a certain spirit that dwelled within her.

Arriving at the Plaza del Torio, Ehnola was greeted at the door by the butler/manservant that had carried Marygay from her townhouse. He escorted her into a foyer where Grazia was waiting for her. The old woman's steely gaze bore into Ehnola's eyes for a long moment and she said, "We will speak in the morning. Your rash actions may have turned up something useful after all." Gaeloraxus only hissed suspiciously in her mind.

The next morning was pleasant, waking up next to Marygay. They even had a few quiet moments to enjoy each other before a loud knock on the door broke the mood. The butler called through the door, "The mistress awaits you both at breakfast." Marygay's eyes went wide and she said, "We shouldn't keep her waiting."

Ehnola was on cloud 9 and nothing was going to bring her down, the knock broke her reverie and she slipped out of bed and into the shower which was another well-deserved treat. Once dried and dressed the two women slid down to the breakfast table and tried to hide their euphoria, Marygay hugged Grazia but Ehnola just gave her a respectful nod. Taking her place at the table, Ehnola poured coffee for all three of them and buttered a slice of toast for herself. Marmalade had always been a favourite but due to the sugar content a rare treat, thus one slice was all she allowed herself as Grazia began to speak.
