They faced Craven old and new.
The town was quiet. Ppl prolly dead or food. Revs there. But so was Varus! Yuck. Val thinks they are 250 gods at the Rise. Message? Y'all be hearing from Kolis soon.

They table it. Poppy promised not to leave. Tawny wants to know what's up? Poppy tells her about Sora. ( off page) Tawny was like omgwtf

Ascended live, but he knows that this is about Ian, so they all agree. Reaver brings up Thad not being here yet. Or Val. And arguments about who should go. Only Cas and Kirean can see her colorful eyes. Reaver knew about Sora. Ash told him not to say anything. Ash was awake off and on. Huh. Ash wanted Sera to be w Poppy. Cas relatively calmed. Malik wants to go, and see if Millie is there. Cos could she be compelled

Poppy desperately wants to ask Heath about Ian, but not now. They go see the lord and lady fuckhead. They think that no one can die? Stay dead? Cos of Kolis. He will take back all of his. Izzy wanted more from Poppy.
Sit by Kolis' side, now by his feet. Poppy kills the f outta her. Whelp. Oh, Sora spoke- never belonging w Kolis or sitting by his feet again. Council time. Cas and em are not thrilled w letting the

Millie showed Malik these new Ascended. They govern as a Democracy. If they can't abide then they meet the sun. Millie always goes w them. Poppy can't fathom that. Malik figured that Poppy and Emil would be cool, but Cas? Unclear. Malik and em want to give choice to the choice less. Millie told Ian and em about this new way- wild animal blood instead. It seems feeding is complicated re Millie. They gonna talk to K

Poppy. Period. Poppy feels anguish and sorrow from Cas. Re Kirean. She wants answers. Malik takes them to a house full of Ascended who knew Ian. They all rejected being Ascended. The lies. Izzy had the others killed. They didn't believe in the rites, or blood taking. They will follow Poppy and Cas. They don't drink blood. It's not needed to live. Strength, yes. But they stopped. Ian too. Heath fren or???

About Sora, Kolis, what she would have to do, Callum letting this occur, Izzy, all of it. She fears giving in to her feelings. The rage etc. Like Sera thinking she had to believe nothing happened? That went well! Delano catches her staring at the Cliffs. He asked about Sera. Poppy then gave her the old wolven dagger. Explained. It had temp killed him, so she was never gonna use it. He took it. Kirean came in. She

Meet Millie. ( that would be so weird!) Cas wanted to check in w her. She wanted not too. She felt rejected when he stopped st. That she was no longer Poppy. He kept pushing til she yelled. About all of it. He recoiled at thinking that he would ever reject her. They go back. She steps to the vault. Izzy used to take her there. Coins and jewels. The Star. She had always been drawn to it. She has her feelings.

The blade burns but not Poppy
A lil tingle. Burnt when Cas got stabbed by her. Sera is confused. She made that promise to give Sora the dagger, so, she did. She Is sorry that this happened. Cas can't be- he never would have met Poppy. Sera hugs Poppy. Cas is touched- first family member to hug her w love. Sera gotta go. No! I wanna see what she told Ash. P would like to be w Ires when she can. K. S would like to

Poppy has a very bad panic attack. Sera helps Cas calm Poppy. The breathing exercises that Ash does. She panics at losing Cas and Kirean. He swears that will not happen. Sera then drops the love is a weakness thing. Poppy rejects that. Cas won't hurt her. Sera smirks that their banter reminds her of Ash and herself. She reveals that she stabbed Ash. Cas isn't surprised lol. Sera gives Poppy the Amcient bone dagger
