Janus had reported the whole event to the queen, how the First Heir's powers only seemed to work on an instinctive level, and that he clearly seemed to value the little girl that had been with them.
What he did not tell, was the strange sense of familiarity he felt when he saw the boy.
Like he knew the boy.
Janus couldn't help but feel like there was a resemblance, and whilst he knew his father's family was all dead, he did not know much about his mother's extended family.
Could he be related to the First Heir?
It was a question he had not expected, and one he might not want to find an answer to. Ash was the most important thing in his life, aside from Clary, and their plans were too important.
Family or not, that boy would die.
The group nearly got Catarina to have a heart attack when the Portal suddenly appeared out of the blue in the living room.
The blue skinned woman took in their distressed faces and as she saw Jem clutching Emma, her centuries long nursing instincts took over.
She rushed to the patient.
"What has happened?" She asked.
"Faerie hunters attacked us. Emma seems to have been wounded with some sort of poison." Tessa said as she laid Emma down gently on the couch, Catarina making sure her head was properly supported.
They worked together flawlessly, like the old times were they were war nurses together.
Emma was in good hands.
Kit, inhaled deeply before he went up to Ty and Julian. No matter what had happened, he couldn't stand the sight of seeing Ty looking so distraught in his living room.
"You can trust them. Catarina is one of the best nurses on the planet and Tessa is the most dependable woman I know." Kit said, slightly flustered at the embarrassment of saying it out loud.
Tessa smiled at his words.
Within the lands of Faerie, Livvy had quite easily gotten lost.
Not that it mattered, the strange nature of Faerie's time somehow meant her bond with Ty wasn't affected, no matter how long she would venture.
That, at least, was a comfort.
Which Livvy definitely could use in this mess of a place.
It was pretty, and absolutely gorgeous. She couldn't deny that.
At first, she had just been unable to walk, mesmerized by everything and wanting to see every little detail.
She thought Ty would love this place.
Livvy didn't knew who sent the soldiers, but considering Kieran was nog king, the primary suspect was the Seelie Queen being out for Kit.
But the Seelie Court wasn't that easy to find, as it turnts out. She really could have appreciated a guide, or a map.
At this point, she was already sure she had been travelling for about a week, and there was still no Seelie Court or even some kind of road sign.
She could cry tears of frustration about now.
It was only by chance of luck, that she heard a pair of frustrated goblins from a distance.
"My sister was supposed 'o be 'ere by now, but no, the lass has still yet to arrive."
"It is all but that Nephilim boy's fault!"
"Aye, if the Queen had not captured 'im, her desires would not have deluded her."
Now that caught Livvy's attention.
The Seelie Queen had captured someone?
She raced towards the direction the goblins appeared to have came from, wondering if it would lead to the Seelie Court.
She passed an endless number of trees bearing Faerie fruit, motivated with new energy.
She kept going, she had to.
Who knew who the Queen had captured, and wether they were in any danger.
Suddenly, Livvy noticed her enviroment began changing, became more refined.
She halted, and started moving forwards in a more careful approach, trying not to appear noticed by anyone.
Stealthily, she crept forward through beautiful shaped bushed, lush flowers beds.
Livvy then knew, where she was. This must be the Seelie Court's garden.
