Assessing the situation..

Monday 16th June. Entered into Journal belatedly.


I'd intended to smoke around checking the place out today. (I also had
plans to eat and drink a good selection of things that are not fish
or berries.)

In fact, after the last few days,what we both mostly needed was a rest.

She couldn't force you to turn on your families and friends at first? ....did she manage that ...?

*turns slightly to see your face better*

I think you'd better tell me exactly what happened... what did this Lamia do?

I got there and...Nate was dead already...
she'd tried to force him to give her one of
his 'human pets'...When he refused, she just...
*chokes*
Humans aren't her idea of people; just meat.

From what we could figure out, her control
gets stronger as time goes by. We could manage-
just barely--to tell her 'no' but...it got
harder even over the span of a day or so.
Cheiryon had followed us out to Texas. He tried
to help us keep her distracted. Playing 'poltergeist'-- screaming at her, breaking
everything he could move...Demetria stayed hidden
nearby.

Then...Lamia noticed Amber... she went ballistic
when Stephen told her they were actually married.
We had to do something... I needed to get her
away from them...and try to keep her from
ordering me or Stephen to rip Amber's throat out
--because he was being hit a lot harder...
I was afraid he...might not be able to stop himself
if Lamia actually said it...

*pushes back your hair.* You did well to keep from obeying her, then.

But you said that she's imprisoned again now? How was that done?

I tricked her. Cheiryon stayed nearby, invisible--kept whispering in my ear, helping me with my lines.
One of us should have won an Emmy...*laughs shakily*...
I told her I didn't believe she was any
'Elder Demon'...just full of herself. Asked why we
hadn't heard of her, if she was really so powerful
the "gods" had decreed her imprisonment?
She came back with me to the caverns, to show me
her "proof"...arrogant...


Demetria, Rashid and a couple of the human Clanmembers waited inside. As soon as she went into
the tunnel, I ran back outside. 'Metria set a
warding spell into the aperture, and then melted the
rock to seal it up physically.

... and if that was all, the story would be over, and you wouldn't be so worried now -did she get out again?

[identity profile] blood--moon.livejournal.com 2003-06-23 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)

Demetria has been looking for a more permanent spell
--she thinks what's there now will last at most
half a year from the time it was cast. Sometime this
summer. Lamia was 'spelled asleep' before--we had no
way to do that. She's been constantly trying to
break out. If she does, and we're in "calling range"
then...

She didn't have time to DO anything,but I heard
her screaming at me before the shield went up...
She's still alive in there. We had tried
silver weapons on her...one of the human kindred
did. No effect.

Reimprisoning her is only a half measure anyway.
If we do that, we might be back in the same
damned mess a few years or decades down the
road... I want her gone. Permanently.

Would Demetria know how? Maybe the first thing you should do is get in touch with her to find out how things have gone - and your family too.

rubs at eyes wearily*
All Demetria could tell me is what we'd read
before; Lamia's race can be killed but there's
no clear report of how. Just talk about her
being 'unkillable by any mortal creature or
weapon of the living world.'

Gods, I'm so tired...right now I just wish I could
get a few hours' sleep without those rotten nightmares about the bitch...*hopefully*...do you
think there's anything your magic could do about
that? *curls up next to you*

*Moves a little closer, keeping arm very loosely around you.*

I'm tired too, we could try using the link - I'll just see if we can stay closely enough in touch so I'll know if you hit trouble while you're dreaming.
you sleep now. I'm right here....

*smiles*
*moves closer*
*kisses you softly, then closes eyes*
*asleep almost at once*

*sings very softly*


I make the songs

For others to sing

Everyone knows

I don’t feel a thing,

I live my life,

Going away,

There’s a whole repertoire

Of what I don’t say,



*very sleepy...almost mumbling...*



Now something’s so right,

The world reflects your delight,



*and asleep....*
