Lyonfort’s library was enormous, with high vaulted ceilings, wide windows that let in the moonlight but did little to dispel the shadows that filled the halls and massive bookshelves lined with old books, and the floors were covered with thick red carpets. The place looked like a museum, where history had long ago been preserved for posterity.

The librarians who worked at this library were all women, most of them looked like witches with old black Victorian dresses and white collars and cuffs. Their hair was messy, curly and black. They were very serious and didn’t talk much, but all of them were beautiful.

"Zeth Rahman, nice to see you again, with clothes on this time," said a little witch, but she didn't look like the rest. She was dressed in pink robes and regalia. A red chestplate with angular faulds extended into an ankle-length skirt. She was wearing elbow-length pink fingerless gloves, black trousers and thigh-high boots, and an intricate black tiara with a pentagram at the centre and two long goat horns protruding from it. She had a sweet appearance, cute cheeks and pink eyes, and voluminous hair of the same colour, but why did she say that it was good to see Zeth with clothes on?

"And you are?" Jade got jealous immediately.

"Jade Guarr Steinfield Peterson, I knew you would come," the girl said in her sweet, melodic voice, and was she so sweet Jade almost got diabetes.

She was so different compared to others, she was not dark nor Goth, and didn’t look like a master of the dark arts at first sight.

Maybe she was a Wicca?

"Do I know you?" Jade cocked her head.

The little witch smiled and giggled.

"You don't know me! But I know you." She waved her hand as if to erase the tension and walked closer to Jade, putting out her hand for her to shake. "My name is Baphelise Niggurath, daughter of the Shub-Witch Bapheline Niggurath."

"It's okay," Zeth told Jade, who shook the pink girl's hand hesitantly. She had many rings on her fingers. "I met her mother, a key player during the War of the Nine Kingdoms and the Zeldrich War."

"You can call me Elise," The little witch said, and Jade nodded, "Zeth came for answers, and so did you."

"How do you know that?" Jade raised an eyebrow.

"I am a witch, the only one who knows how to use all forms of dark magic, a true mistress of darkness," Elise said smiling, "My mother gave birth to me thousands of years ago, I began as a dark shadow that used its claws to get out of my mother's womb in unbearable agony during a cold night. I am the embodiment of evil and darkness, and in time, I was able to shape my ethereal form, and I began to learn more and more dark magic until I became who you see now," She said with a bright smile.

"OOOOOkay, that makes sense," Jade said awkwardly, still holding Elise's hand. It was really soft and warm. "Excuse me for asking, but have you seen my boyfriend without clothes before?"

"Oh yeah!" Elise nodded, eyeing Zeth up and down.

"I thought you were not my girlfriend anymore?" Zeth asked Jade suspiciously, and she blushed.

"That was long before he was your boyfriend," Elise dismissed with a hand and a laugh. "And judging by what I saw, wow! I'm sure you will scream on your honeymoon!"

"Wait, what?"

"Elise gave Draco and I magical vasectomies, you don't want the details," Zeth rubbed the back of his neck, looking away from Jade.

"No, I don't... You say you have some answers for me?" Jade glanced at Elise.

"The table with the floating candelabra is waiting for you, at the centre of the library. Check that while Zeth and I talk," Elise said, snapping her fingers.
