Thirty-Four

Elise didn’t break anything. She gave a beaker the glaring of a lifetime, but she didn’t break anything. Once everyone had calmed down a little, the topic of conversation returned to the ice wolves. Kadrix pulled out books from varying heaps and piles around the room. Quin followed behind him, rebalancing the books so they didn't collide with the piles next to them and begin the domino effect. Elise watched with fascination.

"Do you really know where everything is in here?" she asked.

The elf didn't look at her; he was too busy gathering more books. "Yes. There's a system in place, albeit a complicated one."

That sounded like code for chaos to me, but I didn't say anything. Kadrix took a deep breath and prepared to give a lecture. I sat down and readied myself to try and listen. Lysander picked me up and placed me back down in his lap. I raised an eyebrow at him and his presumptions. He grinned at me and held me close. I let him go with it; I could still feel the shivers of fear that he was desperately trying to hide.

"Ice wolves are an ancient and wild breed. Only the strongest of the old Nordic bloodlines managed to tame them. Those that did forged loyalty of a depth that was unheard of elsewhere. They haven't been seen in over a century, perhaps longer." He flicked a page. "Their magic is unique to them and absolutely fascinating. Their ability to use the network and collect the ice energies from thousands of miles away is just astounding. If I could capture one and see how exactly it worked, I could make major breakthroughs in other areas."

"Focus, Kadrix,” Elise said sweetly.

He huffed and continued. "Only an old and powerful Nordic witch can control a wolf, so it stands to reason that that is what we're looking for. The dead witch mentioned an Icelandic witch, did he not?"

"You could have a little tact, Kadrix,” I replied.

Lysander nuzzled my neck as I remembered the mess that been left once the celestial had finished with Lucien. Kadrix made some hand gesture at me. I glared at him. Elise cleared her throat to bring everyone back on track.

"Yes. Lucien made mention of an Icelandic witch,” I said.

"Well that gives me something to look into, once I've finished with this celestial puzzle. If you could capture one of those, I have a cage out back that would hold it. I'd only really need twenty-four hours,” Kadrix said idly.

We all glared at him.

"You're welcome to stuff Zair into that cage,” Elise said.

He grinned at her. "I'll see what I can do next time he appears."

"I don't want to know what you'll do to him do I?" I asked.

His grin only widened.
