    Summary

    The oldest act of creation demands the oldest kind of magic.

    A bed of grass, the blood of maidens, a turn of the wrist withershins for every eight the other way, under the light of the solstice – either will suffice – clad only in one’s skin. Not the most precise of spells, and not the most reliable either – an act of creation that can lead to nothing, or worse, but one tries it as one must.

    However, with a lack of precision comes a lack of specificity – the verses in language that no longer stretches to a rhyme are never very clear about what a maiden is. Certainly, two witches who have shared a bed for countless decades can believably be maidens to the right ears.

    In which Nicholas is born of old magic. It is not enough.

    Summary

    The climb is steeper than Sciel remembers, and the metal groans softly beneath her as she ascends the final ladder. Her hand ghosts along rusted beams warped by time and ink, passing the old scratched initials—lovers used to come up here, the letterings long since faded with the oxidation.

    She almost laughs at herself. What was she hoping for? That the room might still feel the same? That she might feel the same?

    Then she steps inside, and the moment her eyes adjust—

    “Sciel,” Lune says in a breath caught somewhere in between. Her guitar disappears in a flurry of chroma particles. “Of course you’d run into me up here.”

    or, Maelle stays in the canvas and life goes on, just not as Sciel once imagined.

    Summary

    Clea pulls out a map one day and tells Alicia to point to a spot on it.

    She does, and they circle it with a felt-tip pen, looking the name up online on Clea’s beat up old laptop (which is the only computer they own that wasn’t destroyed in the fire).

    It’s some backwater village named Lumière.

    or: After Verso dies and they lose everything in the fire, the Dessendre sisters leave Paris behind.
