After becoming comfortably drunk, Lydia fell into a slumber, only for her eyes to snap open again in the middle of the night. She had been crying out in her dream.

“I shall marry you...”

The words hovered faintly at the back of her mind but vanished without a trace mere moments after she woke up. She couldn’t remember a single thing about the nature of her dream, and yet her cheeks were wet. She turned over. The moonlight chased the sleep from her mind and bounced off the glittering moonstone on her finger, drawing her attention to it and bringing doubt to the forefront of her thoughts once again.

Something wasn’t right. Lotta had spoken as though Lydia were working for Edgar in London, and had even mentioned a proposal. Where had the two of them met anyway? Lydia began to gradually follow the threads of her memories. As she recalled, the pirate girl had come in search of her missing friend, who had been captured by a worm in one of Edgar’s territories. Edgar and Lotta had known each other since the earl was in America.

The more fragments of her memory returned to her, the bigger Lydia’s doubt grew. Why had she gone to Edgar’s territory? How did she know that he and Lotta were old friends? She wasn’t supposed to have been in contact with Edgar since they found the sword. It was all too strange. Nico was nowhere to be seen. Kelpie’s presence was unusually constant.

Lydia felt too uneasy to remain lying in her bed, so she got up, fetched her coat, and made for the front door. She wasn’t sure what she hoped to achieve wandering outside in the middle of the night.

I wonder if Edgar is still here...

The next train out of Edinburgh shouldn’t have been departing until tomorrow morning, so he might have been staying at an inn somewhere. Lydia cut across the garden, pushed open the low wooden door, and walked out past her gate. Or at least she thought she had, but she found herself in the garden again. The moonlit road was on the other side of the wooden door. She pushed it open once more and stepped through it slowly. However, a single step and she was back in the garden. It was fairy magic: a spell of illusion.

The moment it came to her, she naturally deduced that her fragmented memories must also have been caused by magic. Magic that could only have been cast by a powerful fairy. Lydia could think of no other possible culprit than Kelpie.

“Why would he do such a thing?”

Though he was of the Unseelie Court, he had never done anything to cause her harm. Nor had he ever used his magic on her. If he was the culprit, then breaking the spell would prove difficult. Nevertheless, Lydia persisted in trying to leave the garden. The result was the same whether she tried to leave from the back or use a ladder to climb over the hedge. Exhausted, she sat beneath the ladder.
