Ashley's POVWe locked the door behind us, still hearing Arin's voice as they tore him to pieces. "Fuck!!!" Leo screamed, rushing to the door and attempting to pull it open, but David and I quickly got hold of him and pulled him backwards. "Pull yourself together Leo," David commanded, pulling him towards the wall adjacent us. Holding him till Arin's voice was no longer heard, we watched as he calmed down and slowly move away from him. The silence in the room was almost deadening, broken only by our ragged breaths. "What's this place," I mumbled to myself, turning around slowly as my eyes adjusted to the lights coming from a distance. Lanterns hung from carved wooden beams overhead, the air thick with the terrible scent of lavender, burnt sage and something much older, much renown. I trembled slightly at the thought of it. "No way. You percieve that right?" I asked David who stood before me. "Yeah, it doesn't smell good," he replied, his eyes fixed on a certain point in the ro

Ashley's POV I watched as the real seer stood still for a moment, her hand still extended and waiting, not demanding, but kind of offering. "Raven?" I called. "Is this truly you?" She gave no reply, and slowly, her hand dropped, and without another word I watched as she turned away and walked gracefully across the room. As she moved, I watched as she reached up and unwrapped the deep, hooded scarf that had hidden very much of her face. No, she wasn't as beautiful as the previous impostor had been, not even close.

She stood close to the fireplace, warming her hands. Then she finally spoke. "It's good to see you again Ashley. It's been years."
