3rd Person POV

...story....

Clotho walks and finds her sister. "Oh, there you are." Clotho says. "It's always the artsy types with you, ain't it?"

"How many times must I tell you my powers are not a tool for your amusement, Clotho?" Enchantress asks

...waverider...

"Wait, wait, wait, time out." Nate stops the story. "But you did look different at the time, though, right?"

"Shapeshifter. Course I did." Charlie tells the group as they listen to the story. Brooklyn has Maddie on her lap, Maddie watching Charlie move her arms around as she tells the story. "But it makes the story easier to imagine if you just picture me."

"Yeah, just pay attention." Sara tells Nate

"Yeah, yeah." Nate says

"Anyway, then she said her magic word..." Charlie continues with the story

...story...

"Enchantress." Enchantress says. "I imagine this has something to do with your theft of the Loom of Fate?"

"You disapprove?" Clotho asks

"No. Humanity's status quo should be shaken up every few millennia. It's good for them." Enchantress says

"Well, I'm glad you think so, because this is a pretty big shake-up." Clotho tells her. "I need to make sure that no one ever finds this. Not even me, and especially not Lachesis. You think you can do that?"

...waverider...

"Question. La-who?" Ava asks

"Lachesis, she's my elder sister." Charlie explains. "And also the Leader of the Fates. Now, she's a real master manipulator. Atropos kills because Lachesis wills it."

"I thought you said this was going to be a story." Brooklyn speak up from her spot with Maddie. "Hence the reason I brought the baby to listen."

"What?" Charlie questions, looking at Brooklyn. "I never said it would be kid friendly." She tells Brooklyn

...story...

"It is you, Clotho, that has the difficult task." Enchantress

"What, running and hiding?" Clotho asks

"I'm relieving you of a piece of the Loom that has been your entire reason for existence." Enchantress says. "Now that you are free of it, it'll be up to you to determine what, if anything, is left of Clotho in its wake."

"All I need is to make sure that that ring is never found." Clotho says. "Existential actualization can come later."

"You cannot run forever, Clotho." Enchantress says

...waverider...

"And that is the last thing that I remember." Charlie says

"You have no idea what spell Enchantress cast?" Constantine asks

"Well, that would kind of defeat the whole point of going to her, now wouldn't it?" Charlie says

"But Charlie, all we need is the third ring to bring Behrad back..." Sara says

"And now you're telling us it's impossible to find?" Nate asks. "Maybe you could've mentioned that before your sister got on the ship?"

"See, this is exactly the kind of thing I was afraid would happen." Charlie says
