over the years anne had collected a lot of books on magic and over the past two months lydia had made a substantial dent in it. she had sources on all types of magic but it was anchored on the good - on the natural. that was all they were supposed to look into and she understood why - at least she thought she did. in all likelihood it was just kol getting to her, trying to twist her toward becoming as dark as the medea coven but that wasn’t about to happen - she saw the point in using ‘dark’ magic but talking to anne first seemed the best bet. unless anne said something she didn’t agree with… but that was unlikely.
❝ Can I ask you something? ❞
honestly, being the one with all the answers and all the information made anne feel important. like she’s finally doing good after years of just skimming by, running from place to place. her girls needed her, that much was true, and she knows each of them have been reading the books on magic she’s collected. so it isn’t so much of a surprise, rather a welcomed treat when lydia came to her with a question. a smile spread across her lips as the elder witch hoped she’d know the answer. “of course, lydia, what is it?”
