Bridgette's death is difficult for everyone in the Gothington family to cope with.

Danielle: "No, not Aunt Bridgette."

Clementine was at a loss for words. How was she to comfort her niece when her own heart was broken into a thousand pieces?

Of course, the sages also heard that Bridgette Gothington had been killed by a vampire. As quickly as he could, Kolamano left the realm of magic to check on his family.

When he came through the door, Clementine thought at first that it was an attacker. But then she recognized her husband.

Kolamano: "How are you, dear?"

Clementine burst into tears. "Not good. I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't breathe."

Kolamano: "Come here." He hugged her. Pressed her trembling body against his and felt her heartbeat on his chest. At that moment, a wave of relief flowed through both of them that they had each other.

*******

The world has also collapsed in Ciudad Enamorada. Bishop has withdrawn from everyone in his pain. How was he supposed to live on without his twin sister? With her, a part of him had died.

So it remained Michaela's task to inform the girls about the death of their beloved aunt.

Jana burst into tears and barricaded herself in her room.

Michaela: "Anne come on, let's talk. Let's sit down on the couch."

Reluctantly, Anne sat down next to her mother. Her presence in the same room alone stressed the girl. "What's up?"

Michaela: "Aunt Bridgette ... she died today."

Anne blinked and shook her head in disbelief. "No, you're lying."

Michaela began to cry. "I wish it were. But no. Bridgette is dead."

In the evening, Kolamano visited Clementine. Many thoughts rushed through his head and he felt the need to look for his love.

He also needed her help to contact Morgyn and Caleb. The redemption ritual with his sister-in-law had cost him quite a lot of energy.

Clementine was baking a birthday cake for Danielle and looked up in surprise. "I wasn't expecting you today." She glanced at the clock. It was shortly before midnight.

Kolamano: "It was a strenuous day." He would have liked to talk to her, but as a wise man he had to be a certain distance.

She was his forbidden love, his weakness. Just because he loved her, he could lose everything. But the advice that her father, his father-in-law, demanded made everything even more difficult.

The Peace with the vampires was on the brink.

With a sigh she put down the wooden spoon and went to her husband. "Whatever is bothering you. I'm here for you."

Kolamano: "I know." He kissed her gently on the forehead. "The girls are already asleep, aren't they?"

Clementine: "Yes."

Kolamano: "I need your help."

She held her breath and read his eyes. "What are you hiding from me?"

The question hit him unexpectedly. His eyes widened.

Clementine: "So I'm right."

Kolamano: "It's not up to me..."

Clementine swallowed audibly. "It's about my father. Right?" She paused. Their thoughts chased each other. "Oh Watcher, he knows about us." Panic overcame her. "Our marriage. That you are Liora's father."

Kolamano embraced his sweetheart and gently hugged her. He felt her racing heartbeat on his chest. "No, dear. No, that's not it. Calm down."

Clementine: "Tell me the truth."

Kolamano: "All right. Yes, your father was with me with Valentin Freyes."

Clementine looked at him intently and took a deep breath.

Kolamano: "It concerns the death of Luisa." He paused, trying to read her face to see if she could stand the truth. "She was killed by a vampire."

Clementine: "There are a lot of vampire attacks right now. We are also confronted with it in the hospital."

Kolamano: "It's not just any vampire. Jonathan Freyes was transformed. He is responsible for the death of his sister and it looks like not only by her."

Clementine: "Oh poor Morgan. Now I understand why Dad is always so short. They only told me that Luisa died, but not how."

Kolamano: "I guess he didn't want to scare you."

Clementine: "How can I help?"

Kolamano: "Come upstairs with me."

Clementine: "And now?"

Kolamano pointed to the séance table. "I told you that Morgyn and Caleb had to hide. We need a portal to be able to get to them."

Clementine hesitated. "What about the children?"

Kolamano smiled. "Don't worry, time will stop here. They won't notice we're there." His wife stared at him in disbelief. "It's part of the veiling spell. Trust me."

Clementine: "Okay. Then let's go."

[thegothingtons]

The bright green light that had emerged above the séance table spread until it had engulfed the entire room.

Kolamano moved his lips. Silently he cast a spell that brought the spouses to their friends.

Time stood still in Glimmerbrook and Clementine and Kolamano entered the home of Morgyn and Caleb Vatore.

Clementine had not known them for long. All she knew about the feminine magician and the vampire was that Morgyn was also one of the sages in the realm of magic years ago. But fate had other plans and so Morgyn and Caleb fell in love. Their love was so strong that they both gave up their lives. They had to hide now, but they were together and happy.

Morgyn: "Oh Clementine. How nice to see you." Exuberantly, he pulled her into a hug and Clementine realized that he was pregnant.

Caleb: "Kolamano, I've received your message." The vampire's expression became serious. "Come in."

Morgyn smiled, but as a tense atmosphere settled around the four of them, the smile quickly disappeared. They went into the house in silence.

Caleb: "Sit down."

Kolamano: "Then you have nothing pleasant to say to us.“

Morgyn: "It's sad."

The friends sat down at the dining table.

Caleb and Morgyn exchanged meaningful glances. The Vampire finally cleared his throat. "My research has shown that the Marquis transformed Jonathan."

Kolamano froze at the mention of the name.

Clementine confused: "Who is that?"

Morgyn: "Marquis Vlad de Straud is one of the worst monsters that wander on this earth."

Caleb: "Morgyn is right. The Marquis has always pursued the goal of subjugating all life in the world. The mages weakened him greatly a few centuries ago, destroyed his clan, but recently rumors have been increasing that he is back. He has created new followers. Jonathan Freyes is one of them."

Morgyn laughed bitterly. "From what you hear, this Freyes is a very docile student."

Clementine: "And how do we stop this Marquis and Jonathan?"

Kolamano: "Without a war between the magicians and the vampire."

Caleb looked at Morgyn sadly. "This is going to be difficult. We will need the help of the wolves."

Clementine shook her head. "No werewolf has been seen for a very long time. The story goes that after the war, the packs turned their backs on the Occult world."

Caleb: "That's right. They use a similar magic as we do. A portal veils them."

Kolamano shook his head depressed. "That makes it impossible for us to find them."

From above loud children's cries boomed downwards.

Caleb: "Sorry. It's my turn to look after the children." He got up and left.

Morgyn: "But there is still a possibility. We could also create a werewolf."

Clementine caught her breath. She knew the story.

It was true, the werewolves were a creation of magicians as a weapon against the vampires. But their creation almost meant the end of the realm of magic.

Morgyn smiled narrowly and looked at his friend knowingly. "Yes, but I'm smarter than the old ones were."

[thegothingtons]

We are back in Glimmerbrook.

Santa Claus has given Clementine and Kolamano a very special early gift.

Say hello to Reginald Alfie Davila.

His mother, Regina Davila, unfortunately fell victim to the Watcher's addiction to trying out the new things from the pre-update for Life & Death. The Davilas were good friends of the Gothingtons and Clementine, despite all the difficulties with Kolamano, didn't think twice and adopted the sweet little boy.

He brought true joy to the family and Kolamano flourished in his new role as a father to the boy.

********

The joy and love of Christmas spread throughout the house and it seemed as if a blanket of harmony had wrapped the residents.

Kolamano took the time to play with Grace Damen-Hoch and get to know her better.

Soon it was her birthday and she was about to move out. Therefore, the family enjoyed the time they had together.

Clementine: "Don't you want to try the delicious banana drops, Reggie?"

Later in the day, the Christmas tree was decorated. Everyone helped.

Liora and Nasia had a lot of fun.

❤️🎄

[thegothingtons]

A few days later ...

Liora tried several times to get into conversation with her father. But as soon as he sees her, he becomes angry and mean to her.

Kolamano was simply disgusted by his daughter. These little people were a nuisance, their voices too loud and too shrill, so that he thought his ears were starting to bleed. "Get out of here, you bastard."

Liora was very hurt by her father's behavior. What had she done to him that he hated her so much since his return? Why did he suddenly no longer love her? She was ashamed that she didn't know the reason. She was ashamed that she could not help him.

She quickly turned her back on him so that he couldn't see her tears.

*******

A few hours later ...

Kolamano had retreated to the bedroom, he needed his rest.

Suddenly Clementine teleported out of nowhere in front of him. He was frightened.

Clementine: "Please excuse me. We've just finished."

He looked at her and didn't understand a word.

Clementine explained to him. "With the move. You remember that Danielle moved in with Bishop and Anne?"

He blinked and tried to remember who Danielle was. Unsuccessful.

Clementine was waiting for an answer from him. But since he had none, she continued to talk. "To celebrate the day that Danielle is back with her family and also that you are back, we would be invited to Bishop's place. The whole family comes."

Kolamano didn't know what to say. Many people scared him just as much as these two little monsters in this house.

On the other hand, seeing something different from these four walls might lift his spirits.

Clementine: "If it's too much for you..."

Kolamano: "No, I'm coming. It's the house diagonally opposite, right?"

Clementine: "Yes, that's right. You can go home at any time."

Kolamano: "Okay. I'm wearing something else."

Clementine's heart leaped for joy. "Okay."

[thegothingtons]

The next day back in Glimmerbrook.

Clementine had slept very badly last night. An inexplicable fear flowed through her. Kolamano had not contacted her yesterday, which was not unusual. She knew he had to be careful when he contacted her or wanted to visit her. Still, she couldn't shake the feeling that something had happened.

So she finally got up and wandered her restlessly through the house.

She was cleaning up the living room when Kolamano appeared unexpectedly.

At first she was startled. "Oh my watcher."

Kolamano: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." His voice sounded weak and he seemed paler than usual.

Clementine's throat tightened. "What happened?"

Kolamano: "Let's sit down on the couch."

As soon as they were seated, he began to tell. "We were attacked by the demon again."

Full of horror, Clementine breathed in.

Kolamano: "Me too. But for whatever reason, she let me live. The other two are dead." He shuddered. "Danielle spoke of a coldness that went deep into her soul." He began to nod vigorously. "I still feel it. It's more horrible than any Sims can ever imagine."

He looked at his wife, at his love, and for a fleeting moment he wondered if this demon was the Watcher's punishment for his decision to violate the existing rules of magic. He loved Clementine more than words could ever express. But their love for each other and Liora should never have been. A deep grief came over him.

Clementine: "What are you thinking about, honey? Talk to me, please."

Kolamano desperately said, "We cannot defeat this demoness and her power." He had lost all hope. "She kills indiscriminately and has now targeted us Sages. Through our connection to the magical source, she is becoming stronger and more powerful. We have no chance."

Clementine: "Maybe at the moment. But you and the other Sages will find a solution. I refuse to believe that this is the end of us and that of the magicians."

The two were interrupted by their daughter.

Liora: "Daddy." She smiled and the sight of her began to warm Kolamano.

Clementine: "Sit with us, little angel."

The little girl walked past them and climbed onto the couch.

Liora: "Daddy sad?"

Clementine looked at Kolamano. It was always surprising how perceptive her young child was. Liora seemed to have an unerring sense of how others around her were feeling.

Kolamano: "Yes, little angel, I'm sad. But now that you're with me, I'm already feeling better."

Liora beamed all over her face. "Stay with us, Daddy."

Clementine's heart was filled with love. Pure, unconditional love. She looked at Kolamano. "Why not?"

Kolamano gazed at his loved ones. Perhaps it was truly time to relinquish his position as a sage. But could he do it?

He had sworn to protect the realm and the magic in order to maintain the balance of all powers. The vampires and that demoness from hell threatened all life and magic, everything he believed in, everything he lived for. Could he live without the direct connection to magic, to power?

He cleared his throat. "Little angel, let me think about it."

[thegothingtons]

After Danielle came home injured, especially hypothermic, Clementine first gave her medical care and then put her to bed. She then immediately informed Kolamano.

Clementine asked her father to wait with her on Kolamano.

Benjamin: "Don't you think, it's time to tell me the truth?"

Clementine is horrified: "Dad, Danielle has been attacked, this is hardly the right time right now."

Benjamin looked at her sternly.

She gasped.

Benjamin: "Then I'll say it. Kolamano is Liora's father."

Neither of them noticed that the sage of untamed magic had appeared out of nowhere next to them.

Kolamano: "That's how it is, and it's an honor for me to declare that I'm also married to her mother."

Benjamin stared at his daughter in shock. "Married?! You are married?"

Clementine nodded, now that the cat was out of the bag. "Yes, we are."

Benjamin: "Oh my watcher. Are you forsaken by all good spirits?"

Kolamano: "No, sir. We love each other. That's all."

Benjamin shook his head in despair. "You two don't know what you've gotten yourself into. The rule does not exist for nothing." Now the Kolamano looked directly. "Especially you as Sage should be clear about this. I am speechless and disappointed."

Clementine pressed her lips tightly together, she was close to tears. First the worry about Danielle, now this. She knew that her love for Kolamano would disappoint her father. That her love put them all in danger.

Kolamano: "However, we came together for another reason. Right?"

Father and daughter agreed unanimously.

Clementine: "What do you know about the attacks in the realm of magic?"

Kolamano's face darkened: "My colleagues were attacked by an old demon. According to the records, she was no longer supposed to wander around the Occult World."

Clementine: "Danielle said that she has never felt this kind of magic. It was as if this demon was taking away her strength and magic, sucking it out.“

Benjamin: "With what, rather with whom are we dealing?" He looked at his son-in-law questioningly.

Kolamano was reluctant to answer the question. "Elorana, a hybrid, born as a vampire, acquired dark magic. She only spreads death and destruction. My colleagues were very lucky to survive the attack."

Benjamin: "Vampire?! Why do I feel like that's not the whole truth?"

Kolamano: "Rightly so. She is the sister of Marquis Vlad Straud de Sade. The vampire who transformed Jonathan Freyes."

The words seemed to echo in the air. An oppressive silence spread between the three.

********

After talking to Benjamin, Kolamano asked Clementine to accompany him to the realm of magic.

Kolamano: "I ask you to talk to them and examine them."

Clementine: "Why me? You have healers in your ranks."

I bit Kolamano's lower lip: "I didn't want to mention it to your father. But the two of them now lack any memory, of the magical society, of the occult world, of themselves."

She let out a shocked sound.

Kolamano: "The rumors of the attack are already causing enough panic within society. If it comes out now that the two are absolutely bananas in the pear, we plunge into chaos. I must first arrange the succession and protect the realm of magic. So you're going to help me?"

Clementine took his hand. "Of course."

Both Sages stood completely lost in the middle of the room. Kolamano resigned and let his wife do her work.

Cautiously, Clementine approached the two. "Hello."

The Sage of mischievous magic: "Where are we?"

Sage of functional magic: "Who are we? Can you help us?"

Clementine: "I'll try. Come with me. We'll look for a place where it's quieter."

Some time later ...

Kolamano arrived just as Clementine had finished her tests.

Kolamano: "And?" A small hint of hope could be heard in his voice.

Clementine hated herself for not having good news and having to destroy his hope. "They live, physically both have fully recovered from the attack. But spiritually ..." She paused.

The two Sages looked at them as if they were toddlers who had no idea about the world and the dangers in it. "The loss of memory suggests that the brain has suffered severe damage."

Kolamano: "Can they recover from that too?"

Clementine: "Possibly, but this will be a very lengthy process. You have to call in your healers."

Kolamano seemed composed, but the answer shook him. "All right. I will initiate the follow-up ritual and have the healers called."

Clementine: "I'm very sorry."
