Finding the body was worse...

Then I thought I'd found her - for a moment.

Then I thought I'd found her -
sitting alone, and I saw her smile,
sitting relaxed
looking free from guile...

The mind in that body's
not her at all!
Her body was there -
but that's not her soul!

How do you fight an enemy that is wearing the body of someone you love?

I knew that it was Erynne's body, of course - every detail, from the curl of her eyelashes to the shape of her hands.

I knew it as surely as I knew that it wasn't Erynne. The creature inside it was something else entirely. It'd said that Erynne was "on permanent vacation" - not dead. There was a feel of truth to that - and no way to use the singing mojo to get more, not then - maybe if I can get it off guard...

Never show your weapons to the enemy. I waited until it had gone before I smoked out. Maybe Demetria or Giles will know more about how to deal with this.The Watcher owes us for the anti-venom (at least, he'll help if he wants more of it.)
