I watched as Kenna and Mom went upstairs; Mom had mentioned she wanted to see the mark on Kenna for herself. She also told me that she'd had no luck making contact with the Scrolls about our situation and that she'd do her best to research the topic on her own.
Guess we'd have to just stick it out until a solution could be found, but then what? I hadn't put much thought into what to do with her once this was all over. Would I be able to let her run free? Return her to the Sanctuary? Or would it be kinder to end her life?
Delilah interrupted my thoughts when she stood up and left the room, walking past the stairs as I called after her, "Where are you going?"
"Bathroom!" She called back, her voice bouncing off the walls as she turned the corner and walked down the passage.
Now that I was alone, I pulled the crumpled piece of paper from my pocket and read over the words, trying to decide whether or not to meet the witch.
