If the magical hoot of the pawn shop door opening wasn’t enough to catch Eda’s attention the voice that spoke sure would have been. “Lily,” she returns, using her sister’s nickname purposefully as she looks over at the older woman. “Treasures is the word you should be looking for. I’m surrounded by piles of endless treasures.” And money - or at least in her mind every item was the same as a sitting pile of potential cash. “You mean the poofing? I’m fine.” Not only had she not disappeared herself, none of those close to her had been taken either. So as far as she was concerned all was fine.

         “ Poofing? ” Lilith’s eyebrows rose, and she had to fight off a laugh at the name. “ Sure, that -- what you said, ” she replies, less than amused. She steals a glance at a paperweight that might have been broken, but might have been just made ugly. “ I don’t know why you keep these tchotchkes, Edalyn, but if they make you happy... ” She trails off, but realizes she’s coming to be sentimental. “ In any case, I’m here for my customary ‘ you should join the coven ’ chat,” though she says it as if she isn’t interested.

why’d you pick an owl for eda’s curse?

It wasn’t so much a choice. It just happened to... happen... that way.

[lilithsfair]

Are you the better sister?

No. Very plainly, I am not. I wish I were, but that’s a rather complicated situation. I may be smarter, but Edalyn ... she was the one with true potential. The most of it, of anyone I’ve ever known.

[lilithsfair]

honest thoughts on the coven?

Strangely bureaucratic for a magical organization. I rose through the ranks, but it wasn’t without its difficulty. I don’t subscribe fully to the goals of the Coven, but I feel a need to be there. Well, no. I know I need to be there.

“Your shop is quaint as ever, Edalyn,” came the smooth (arrogant) voice from the door. Lilith, of all people. The sister, the would-be captor. If she tried harder, that is. “Edalyn, don’t you ever get tired of being surrounded by... mess? Junk? I’m surprised at you. But then again, not and never will be. Anyhow, I suppose you could call this a mercy. I snuck away to check on you... after... everything that happend.”

“You look troubled.” A quick, blunt opening line, but with a strange tone of compassion that only Lilith could manage. Disinterest and distant, but at the same time, invested. “Are you alright? I don’t mean to pry but you look like you have a lot on your mind.”

dashiel-dash-parr​:

Running was the hobby that Dash loved the most, even if doing so would risk someone catching him in the act later. Lately the boy had felt bolder, venturing farther and farther with a longer time even if it left behind a trail of dust. It is only a matter of time before someone realizes what is happening, and yet he does not try to control himself this time and ignores the common sense that yells at him to stop. With a shout of rebellion, Dash sped up his pace, unaware that he was overtaking a woman who was on the street at that very moment. If he had been more careful, he would have realized that this woman was not an ordinary person in the island. But Dash was not known for being cautious or careful, leaving behind only a blurred figure on the run.

“Hold it!” A sharp bark of an order -- commanding in tone and force, perhaps a little bit of magic laced in her words. Lilith didn’t get out of the office as much as she wished she did, but in this moment, part of her wanted to be back at her desk. Not witnessing the blatant use of... powers... she catches up to him, not pleased with his actions. Kids.... kids... they were going to give her a migraine. “What do you think you’re doing, running around like that?” Her eyes were imploring... almost interrogating... and her emphasis was... not ideal. “And in broad daylight as well?”

chaoticxcipher​:

As he walked out of the council meeting, he could’ve sworn he was hearing someone say his name, almost like a whisper, but echoing so loud it was distracting. These sorts of things have been happening ever since his powers finally awoken. Which was probably the best day of his life, and he had been using them often, and to him the noises and visions he saw as consequence weren’t because of his powers, but him getting closer to whatever nightmare realm it was that he was connected to. 

He turned around when one of the noises got too loud and saw a woman walking behind him. He didn’t know her super well, but he’d heard whispers of her having magic. Strong magic. He paused for a moment so he could fall in step with her. “An interesting meeting today, yeah? Sometimes I think some of those royals just talk because they love the sound of their own voice.” 

@lilithsfair​

She’d been sorting papers. Files and memos, mostly. Walking and doing -- because you must be efficient as an elected council-person. It wasn’t until she noticed the person speaking to her -- actually speaking to her -- that she decided to look up. “Oh... Mr Cipher,” Lilith says, unamused to say the least. “Sure... interesting, right,” she murmurs. Bill Cipher hadn’t been the sort to seek her out before... why would he want to speak to her now? 

“Did you have a question of policy for me... or...?” Her voice trailed off, her eyebrow raised. She didn’t like suffering fools -- though she did suffer many as was her job. “Were you just looking for a conversation?”

King squinted at the woman for a moment. Why’d she say person like that? It took him a second to recognize her face, but then she said Edalyn and he knew exactly who she is. “I am, yeah. And you’re her sister. I’m King,” he introduced himself even though he was pretty sure Eda had probably said his name around Lilith before. Not that she saw Lilith all that often. “Um… Eda isn’t here, if you’re looking for her. But if you were here for thrifting,” he motioned to the stock around him in the store, remembering that he had to be a good salesman even though he was a little nervous with Lilith around. “We’ve got plenty of options for you.”

“King... right...” Lilith seemed bored already. She glanced around the shop, her eyes glancing and chancing upon trinkets and the like. “Oh, Edalyn’s out? Tragic.” It didn’t sound tragic, and actually, Lilith was relieved. She didn’t want to have to capture her sister today... to bring her in. King knew about Lilith’s assignment, didn’t he? Bringing Edalyn into custody? But in any case, Lilith didn’t take the task as seriously as she should... or perhaps it was that she took it so seriously that she couldn’t bring herself to dedicate her full energy to it. “Are you an employee here? At... Edalyn’s shop?”

“Hi... are you...” Lilith strains her eyes, squinting at the page. She ought to wear her glasses, she thinks... and besides, she wouldn’t have been so interested... she just felt momentarily nice. “Marnie Soya? You left your folder back at that coffee shop... I thought it was you but -- I wasn’t sure.”

“Oh... it’s you. You’re that... person...” A glance up and down, taking in the physical appearance as to not forget, though she doubt she would, “who hangs around Edalyn, aren’t you?”

“You’re that young lady who keeps going into the pawn shop, aren’t you?” Lilith tilts her head, smiling pleasantly, in a somewhat mock-inspection of the girl. “You wouldn’t happen to be a friend of Edalyn’s, would you?”

          “Oh...” There’s a curious look on Lilith’s face as she regards the young woman. It had been a normal day, and Lilith had only gone out to run errands today. Bless whoever responsible for clearing her schedule for the day, she was so woefully behind on her errands. It hadn’t occurred to her that she may run into anyone she knew -- or at least in any potentially friendly capacity. Sometimes meeting other politicians “in the wild” was rather... an event.

          She tilts her head for just a moment -- trying to recall? -- before her eyes light up, and she is able to remember... “You’re the Blights’ daughter, aren’t you? The... their youngest? Amity? Oh, yes, I’ve heard of you... How are you? How are your parents?”

|| Get to know LILITH CLAWTHORNE who’s FIFTY-THREE years old and works as  a POLITICIAN around town. She is from CORONA and is often times mistaken for FAMKE JANSSEN while others say she reminds them of LILITH from THE OWL HOUSE. ||

Take a peek at her story:

While nothing in the Clawthorne house would ever be considered normal to the average person, for them it was. The family had been a part of an underground society of witches that had existed within the island for decades - a coven that was here before the royals even claimed the land as their own. Secrecy was of the utmost importance. All of this was something Lilith completely understood. Ever since she was a young girl she’s been a strict rule follower and always played everything by the book. Since the day she was first told about the coven her family was a part of, she has looked up to the Emperor and dreamed of one day being a heavy part of the group. A dream that with some hard work and tough decisions eventually came true. She was officially welcomed into the Emperor’s Coven and over the time she climbed her way up the ladder and found herself as one of the coven leaders.

With this newfound position of power within the coven came an even higher sense of responsibility to keep their group safe and secret. There were plenty of ways to go about this, but Lilith decided to take the political route. She ran for a spot on the island’s council and easily won. Now she has a say in everything that happens in Corona and she can protect herself and the coven from any potential threats or rumors. With the spread of magic becoming rampant and people openly showing off their powers it’s even more important now for Lilith to do everything she can to keep eyes off of the coven - even if that means hunting down her own sister for the Emperor’s wishes.

POWERS UPDATE: She can cast spells, most often strongest with the use of her raven staff.
