:: Is it possible to hear a smirk? ::
Apologies. Of course I understand. I must thank you for your boldness -- it's what I like about you.
:: judith's shadow starts to pulsate and ripple. The center of it darkens and twists, a vortex forming at its center. ::
Good luck ...

I can't follow. The wards of its puppet, the witch it captured @wederrakeep.bsky.social, prevent me from entering. But you can.
Cousin, may I send you there? Would you help me shut that damned Eye for good?

:: judith hears her whisper, invisible again, the sound of her voice coming from deep inside his head. Or his heart. ::
The God of Kings. The All-Seeing Eye. One among the Coven found passage to the door through which its power flows.

Here. You should hold on to this. Perhaps it will come in useful later.
If you can, seek allies. It will take the craft of many to end the God of Order and Sovereignty's court.

:: She laughs, clapping in delight. ::
Not an artist? That was poetry!
:: She crosses to where the puppet had been frozen, stoops, and picks up the shard of crown. Her glee relaxes into satisfaction. ::
Quite an ending. Though I doubt he’s finished for good. 1/

:: Her smile widens. ::
Stay, dog. Down.
:: She looks to judith. ::
It doesn’t *have* to be your own working, so long as you can name its maker and say why it speaks to your Self.
Let’s send this little beast back to its master.
An image of a hand, illuminated. The pointed finger has a rune tattooed on the back of it.
🧿 #BlueskyCoven #Expression
Do you see this rune? I created it myself. Written into my skin as a reminder to be patient. Follow the winding path, even when it’s hard, and I will arrive at good things.
:: She points at the King and grins. ::
Patience.
:: She sidles up to judith, seemingly from nowhere, as if stepping from his shadow. ::
The True Craft of protection is most powerful with many small but original workings of magic.
:: She holds out her hand. ::

May I show you the spellwork that would send him back to his crate? It takes the combined craft of witches to work -- perhaps we can work together.

:: Her voice whispers in judith's ear, though she's nowhere to be seen. ::
Why cousin, this conjuration of hellfire and ooze seeks to threaten you! What arrogance. What pretension. This ... thing ... is nothing more than an echo. Or a pet.

:: She sidles up to the High Priestess. ::
Mazey! Thank goodness, I found you -- it's me, it's Sara. I escaped the Nameless Thing's clutches, but there are these other versions of me hunting me down.
Help me, please, I need the secrets of the Deep Lore before they find me!

Spare the Prince of Knowledge. Those Blades aren't sharp enough to win a war.
