In less than twenty-four hours, everything has turned on its head.

A Knight and her allies were kidnapped by Iscariot agents for execution in Rome, barely escaping with their lives.

A mission meant to free one Knight from the influence of a dark god succeeded - at the price of another's life.

A simple recon mission at a Keijen Blade concert nearly led to two Knights committing mind-controlled suicide in front of an eager crowd.

Several Knights went to see Draken Crombe, leader of the Church of the Lord's Humanity, speak in person, and learned just how sinister his religion's dogma is.

A call from Sir Hathaway alerted Wynn to the escape of the doppelganger from the Knight's dungeons, an escape perhaps aided by Elena Gilbert.

A demigod interrupted what might have been a simple smash and grab retrieval of an artifact.

And most horrific of all, in the middle of the night, hundreds of Shadowkind in New York City awoke, and walked in a mindless trance down to the Hudson River to drown themselves. Only the quick thinking and combined efforts of the Knights present and their allies prevented all of them from succeeding.

Beset on all sides, a dark time awaits for the Knighthood - who were already suffering from the capture of Dragon's Claw Sir Thomas Bancroft at the hands of their long time enemy Dimitris Sarandis of Andres Isle.

In times such as these, the light can be difficult to find. Hope itself seems somewhere just out of reach.

[She almost protests, but he's kissing her again, and really who would ever ask him to stop doing that? Not this girl. It's not the right time at all to be making out, but Dean is banging a girl in the bathroom on this flight so fuck the haters basically.]

[umm they're engaged they can make out whenever they want ok!!! FUCK THE HATERS. also they are a million times classier than dean winchester just saying.]

[witchwoman]

[Being classier than Dean Winchester isn't really that hard, though. Very important brackets while make outs happen. Eventually she breaks away again to breathe, laughing lightly.]

You know, I wonder if I should be concerned by how convincing you are. You'll get away with anything at that rate.

[65]

I promise never to use my power over you for evil.

[witchwoman]

Hmm, you had better not. But there's a fair amount that wouldn't be quite considered evil. I've got my eye on you, Odair. [Her teasing is further confirmed as she leans in to kiss him yet again. She likes kissing him okay. If she didn't, she probably wouldn't be planning to promise to kiss only him for the rest of her life (because myri doesn't subscribe to the vi school of free kisses for everyone).]

[whatevs, finnryi kisses are all that matter.] That's exactly where I want your eye. Both of them, really.

[witchwoman]

Well, you have them. So mission accomplished there.

[and then they made out some more and lived happily ever after until the next time something awful happened :'( ]
