Finding Seth wasn’t an easy feat. While Mathias wanted to avoid pretty much everyone, he knew he had to get into contact with Seth somehow. His former roommate could probably tell him what was going on, and maybe help him. The necromancer had to drag himself from his apartment, to the castle, trying to avoid anyone who seemed to be under this strange heat. 

Wherever Mathias went, his magic seemed to draw out more desire from the people he passed by. For the first time, he actually greatly missed his necromancy. When he came to Seth’s office, the necromancer barged in, uncaring if anyone was in there, or even if Seth was there. It was an escape, even if momentarily. He panted against the door, and sank down to the floor. Mathias groaned, pushing his hand in his pants to hopefully make things easier for him. He needed his best friend a lot now.

The magic Mathias woke up with that morning was nothing like that magic he usually had. Instead on what he would call a dark cloud hanging over him, it felt like warm sun beams. He could tell right away that there wasn’t an ounce of dark magic within him now. He reached out to one of the plants he had in his apartment, and touched it. When he did, the plant sprang to life, and appeared to be as healthy as it could be. That was when Mathias full realized what he had and what he could do with it. 

Hours later, he had moved everything out of the middle of his apartment, and drew a sigil on the floor, placing the vial of Heinrich’s blood in the middle. The witch had no idea what he was doing, but he had to try. He knew Heinrich didn’t want to be brought back, but there was a golden opportunity now. Using the life magic was hard though, and Mathias was exhausting himself as he kept trying. 

He heard his apartment door open as he failed at yet another spell, leaving him winded and blood dripping out of his nose. He turned his head to see Seth there, with wings, and frowned, “What are you doing here?”

[Text]: I’ll bring the ingredients.

Mathias pocketed his his phone after he sent the last text, and went to gather all his supplies. Ever since Zeke had met Seth, Matty had been keeping a distance. He felt back, but he didn’t want their relationship to be completely ruined from it, so he tried to make an effort. 

He walked to Seth’s place, and knocked at the door, “Hi, I’m here!”

When Seth read Matty’s text, he frowned. There was a mixture of emotions here for him. He knew how long Matty had loved Heinrich, but he’d also just finished a very painful conversation with their former master that he couldn’t let the necromancer in on. He’d promised Heinrich he wouldn’t tell. Thankfully, Matty couldn’t read his expression through text.

Text: Aww Matty! I’m so happy for you! 😃

Text: Wanna tell me about it? How’d it happen?

Mathias felt true happiness for the first time. Heinrich was someone he held very dear to his heart, and the vampire was the most important person to him. So knowing that he cared about Mathias like this was the most amazing moment for the necromancer. 

[Text]: He just told me! He bought me an apartment too, in the village!

[Text]: We should all come over and decorate. I think this counts as something to celebrate right?

The switch happened seamlessly and it went unnoticed. The only thing that was different was the excessive demonic energy that was now coming off of the necromancer. The deal that was made was the only thing that kept Zeke alive. His brother had allowed him to take residence within his body so he didn’t have to die. Little did Mathias know, Zeke had no intention of making his brother’s life easy. 

So far, he had stayed away from most of the people Mathias was familiar with. He didn’t want to risk anything too dangerous until he was strong enough. Once he was strong enough, he set off after those who were close to his twin. His first victim was the roommate (or former roommate). Zeke didn’t know the other witch’s name, but he knew Mathias cared for him a lot. Standing in the kitchen, the demon stood over a pot of boiling water, watching it bubble and toil. He heard the roommate come in, and right when he did, Zeke shoved his hand into the water. It hurt, but in the end it would hurt Mathias more. He needed a way to bring the other witch close, without going out of his way to do so.

So many of his friends were having a rough time with their adjustments, but it seemed like those in his suite were having it the worst. Mathias managed to comfort Heinrich, so now he needed to comfort Seth. He approached the other witch quietly, before gently wrapping his arms around his friend’s waist and hugging him. Mathias remembered the life they had in the dream world, it was so simple and happy, and perfect...but that wasn’t their life. Their life was this, but they could still make it just as happy. 

“Hey...How’s it going?”
