Who Knows What?

I don’t believe they’ve ever struck this far north.” Asia’s voice came through the phone. “Look, I’ll be in there in less than an hour. Why don’t we look at the facts then? Maybe we can put facts and rumours together, then see what makes sense. Right now, I’m not convinced it’s the same group. But that could be that I’m not looking at the right evidence or enough of it.”
Thomas felt better that she’d not denied knowing anything. Only that she wasn’t sure this was the case or that she didn’t know enough to mention it before. “Alright, we’ll talk and see

Haden found Janine in her favourite room. He could hear James and Emily arguing clearly from here and for the life of him. He didn’t understand why she didn’t stop it. She knew Emily wasn’t feeling well. “What is going on? This is the last thing that poor girl needs right now.” “Oh, I agree, but it’s their business and they need to work it out together.” Janine appeared unhappy about it, but that baffled Haden all the more. What was going on here? “Care to enlighten me about why we aren’t stopping the argument and setting them straight? Because for the life of me, I don’t understand what’s going on here.” Haden didn’t know where he stood right now as a visitor to this pac

Eva stood outside of the tents and the healer’s cottage. It was grim. Several of the prisoners died over the evening. Not from their wounds, but from murder. Unlike the first attack, where the assassin killed themselves. The rest just disappeared into the night. Now they were watched by guards all the time. Eva’s skills weren’t needed right now and so she was getting some warranted time off. It was needed. She was tired and frustrated. No, not tired. She was on the verge of exhaustion. Damon was at the packhouse receiving a series of boxes containing the notes on weapons they owned or moved on to other packs for better protection. These were exotic weapons, and they enchanted many in one way or another. Specific to dealing with specific threats. Powerful and dangerous. Gods only knew what this group was looking for

“James, is this ridiculous? We’re taking up the time of a healer who could actually help someone. I feel stupid sitting here waiting for them to come here. What an inconvenience for them. I could have easily found my way over there later in the day or tomorrow.” Emily hated inconveniencing people with silly things, and this, to her, was one of those silly things. She’d just had a terrible night for sleeping, is all. “Emily, I’m not willing to take any chances with your health. We’ve gone through this before so many times before this. It’s something new, so we get it checked out. I’m not going through this again. It took so long for you to recover from the first time. It was bad enough not mated to you. I don’t want to have to deal with it now that we are mated. It would hur

Thomas looked over the lists on his phone of the reports about his people. He’d made an appearance at the healer’s cabin and received must of these lists. He’d sadly lost three people, Asia lost one. The injured prisoners weren’t dead at the of his people’s hands. His people were merciful to them. It was whoever they worked for that saw them as collateral and a danger to their plan if they talked. It frustrated him to no end. They needed more information on these people. No, they weren’t people. They were the creatures that made shifters into monsters in the eyes of humans in general. If what they’d worked out so far about their goals. These monsters wanted something to control the reaction of humans to them. That meant they weren’t as confident as they led their followers about opening up to humans. This wasn’t an open up to humans and live in peace with th

Janine found Haden quiet for quite some time. When she glanced up at him from her place, he appeared deep in thought. Did she want to ask? Or would they end up arguing again? Were they arguing early? She wasn’t even sure they’d fought earlier. All she knew was he’d questioned her decisions, and she hoped she explained her position appropriately. Gods, she’d forgotten how difficult it was getting to know and understand another person. Was it worth it? Janine’s mind automatically answered with a resounding yes because they were working together, if nothing else. Haden sat near Janine, watching the day pass from his seat. She’d given him a lot of food for thought. She showed him her loyalty and he could hold that against him. Nor could he fault her logic. She was stepping back from a situation that d

Damon and the others sat around in the conference room poring over journals and scraps of scrolls covered in different spidery writing, looking for one vague thing. The fact that no one could agree what they were looking for made for quite a bit of confusion when narrowing down possibilities. He threw down the tattered scroll in his hands to the table’s surface. Karl, you’ll need to read through this one. It’s in that text again. Karl’s a witch on loan to help get through some of the older documents, because no one in the area wanted any of this except a small group of deluded fools. Karl specialized in many of the older languages and could read whatever this was with relative ease. “Let’s me finish up with this one and then I’ll try to tackle that one. I think I’m beginning to see dou

Emily couldn’t put the doctor and James off for this visit to the Medical Centre. The place she absolutely hated and would avoid at all costs. She felt nauseous just thinking about the months she’d spent here and all the things she endured at that time. Emily was sure that they were overreacting. But here they were, poking and prodding her again. This was what she didn’t want, and James paced as the tests were done. He was worried in his own way. She knew that. But why he was so insistent this time she didn’t know. Now they waited and waited for the results, and Emily knew this wasn’t one of her finer moments. She was moping and pouting. Her only excuse was that she felt like she could sleep forever, and no one had let her. It was feeling like forever, and she didn’t want to become trapped in here

“That’s it. I don’t know about you but I can’t look at another report or message. This is crazy how much damage was done in just a couple of days. You’d think I was gone weeks or something.” Thomas tossed down his phone onto the coffee table with one hand while the other kept Asia snug against his side.“Oh, I’m sure people are just adding little things to the workload in hopes of getting little things cleared up a little faster. Don’t fault them. At least they feel they can request it of you.”“I guess that would explain why the Cleavers want their front stoop replaced. I mean it wasn’t event in the middle of the fight. Anyway, what do we have to do exactly tomorrow. Just so I can make some notes as a reminder.”

The candle and a long stem lighter, so Gwenda chose to use the lighter without the candle and she heated the back of the paper. “Here goes nothing.” It took several minutes, but something appeared. “No one knows we used this trick. I had to have written it. There’s no other way this could have worked. Now what do we have? GPS coordinates, wait. There’s another set. Maybe I went back to get the coordinates?” As she move about the page, a set of seven coordinates appeared. She took the flame away, but gasped. “There’s something else here. Hold, let me reveal it too.” Everyone moved in closer and watched an eighth GPS location appear. “Either location? Where’s does that lead to?” This stumped her for a moment. “We need to plug these into a GPS system and see where they all lead to. The first one isn’t anywhere near the others.” “Of course not. The first one is in Orion’s Forest Territory. They probably scattered the others around here. I recognize the general numbers f

Finally, Asia’s plan came to fruition. Today, they would have their mating ceremony. Janine helped so much, with all the plans. She’d gone above and beyond when it came to their unique needs. But Asia now saw that it was safer for their packs to stay where they were. Penny now scared Asia with little comments, and her track record of being accurate with those comments was the reason.Asia watched the internet as information leaked out. Much of the speculation came from disbelievers and conspiracy theorists. The government and law enforcement had little to say, which only fuelled the debate more. Asia knew there was nothing to be done but to stay quiet and let the ruling council deal with it.Today was her mating ceremony, and it would be a good time in her life. It took long enough to get this far with Thomas and her pack. She wasn’t going to fool herself. There would always be someone commenting on the changes in a negative way.Those witnessing in person were minimal and all, but Ap

Karl greets the Alphas as they file into the room he’s using as a study currently. Once they’re settled with tablets, notepads, etcetera, James opened the meeting. “Alright, I think we can skip the intro to the reason for this meeting. We all know why and who we are. Okay Karl, tell us what you have found.”“Thank you, Alpha De Marre. Yes, uh, this is extremely complicated, so please bear with me as I need to explain there’s far too much back story. First, I have received some upsetting news. The latest attack by the Fae was investigated by my life partner’s enforcement team. The entire team is missing. I want to leave and go help, but I have been told not to stay here to continue working. Second, there’s supposed to be a Fianna weapons expert coming, and they are now late. Now, what I found while translating the journal. Hold on, I missed a few disturbing facts.” Karl held up a smaller book. “All original surviving copies of the translation book for the Fae language at in the univers

Karl now turned his attention to contacting his life mate, Pat. Everyone should be home. It was early there.He kept trying with no luck to connect with Pat. Karl didn’t like the feelings of isolation. Or that he didn’t know where Pat was.After some time, it forced him to decide to stop trying. He couldn’t reach anyone at home. It was as if the location was empty of life and that was far from normal. He took a break and found himself a drink and lunch. He could eat before stopping by the front desk to request that they explain how to find the room he was using to study the books in. When he identified the weapons, he did it under the view of the local arms master who ran James’ armoury. They worked together with attempting to understand what weapons killed which creatures. Some were pretty famous while others were far front known. He needed a person who understood lore and creatures from it. He knew languages used for writing magic spells and rituals. He wasn’t truly a specialist an

“Morning Karl, I have a response from the council. The Fianna will send a representative out to assist you. I’m surprised they moved this quickly. They have requested we send them via a mage driven portal rather than flighting out there. You should see them after lunch. Let the front desk know where they will find you. We’ve arranged for their stay. Now, how is the translation coming? Those weapons can’t be handed over without an understanding of what their purpose and function is.” Mages were well ahead of the everyday man. Humans finally got video calling, mages always had that. They called it scrying and Karl used it now to contact his mentor. Who was within the grand walls of the great library? Mages had to have a mentor while they studied and proved themselves. “Thank you, that’s great news. I have most of it translated. Currently, I’m attempting to build a detailed catalogue. With entries about each weapon mentioned within the journal. After that, I must identi

Asia met with Janine the next morning to organize her mating ceremony. Thomas and Haden couldn’t help with it since they needed them to help with the latest discovery. “So here we are. I think I have everything ready for you to look through. There’s even a checklist, so as we fill the binder, we know we haven’t missed anything. Now, so I can help direct you in the right direction. What did you have in mind?” Janine tried to give off a professional air. She ended her words and held her breath, waiting for Asia’s response. “Oh, well, I don’t want anything too complicated. Actually, Thomas and I have been talking about it and we realized that there’s no way we can get everyone we want here without going over the budget.” Asia peaked at Janine, unsure how she would react. Asia watched Janine’s face fall. “Oh, we still want a simple mating ceremony, but we want to live stream it to both territories. We’ll have two receptions later on. But it makes everything a hu

“Okay, now you have to tell me who pushed you to do that. I want to thank them. It was perfect.” Emily sat in the bath with James and a glass of wine. She couldn’t see her official mate as she sat between his thighs with her back leaning against his chest. “I’ll start getting offended if you won’t believe me. It was my idea and others just helped. I didn’t like how much you were doing with the pups, pack, resort, and trying to get the mating ceremony setup. It was too much for anyone. I wanted you to relax and enjoy this time.” “You really have changed. A year ago, you wouldn’t have cared if I collapsed from exhaustion.” Emily was a little beyond tipsy now after the refreshments at the reception and drinks at the spa. She’d been careful, but they added up. James, too, was nicely mellowed out. They handed their pups off with a pack caregiver on duty for the night. “Yes, I would have. I relied on you far too much. I think if things hadn’t gotten to the extreme, thi

You’d think mages would write everything down on paper and there would be hundreds if not thousands of people employed to look it up at the university. But that wasn’t the case. Computers hold their own kind of logical magic. People just accept that it’s a science. But Karl was aware of the rare instance when some sort of information made it into the hands and minds of those that needed to information to change the world.Here, Karl had the name of a mage, but no time period. They had an app for that. He sent the information about the approximate dates from the journal. Then he hoped for the best. If the name was in the database, he would receive that information soon enough. If it wasn’t, then he could proceed to a physical look up within the older written documents that had yet to be transferred into their version of a computer. Now he continued to translate the stories within the book. That’s what they were, stories. Each weapon had a story. No facts or statistics were t
