A Loss of Hope

Apprentice & Mentor

Eda and Lilith enjoyed a glass of apple blood on the couch while reminiscing about their time at Hexside. 

"You totally had a crush on her! Admit it!" Eda pointed an accusing finger at Lilith while spilling some apple blood on her couch.

Lilith pouts and gets all flustered at her sister's accusations "I did not! I will have you know, Edalyn, that I did not have a crush on Odalia! I just happened to admire her work ethic and her remarkable record."

Eda snorted "Yeah, don't forget about admiring her thick thighs! Don't think I didn't notice you staring at her from behind! I hate that bitch so much, but I have to admit that she was, and is, THICK!"

"Edalyn!" Lilith exclaims "You can't just say that about people!"

Eda rolls her eyes "And why not? Everybody knows it! She even knows it and uses it to her advantage. Just look at Alador. Poor guy. You know he's the hot type of nerd. Man, I bet he's good under the sheets."

Lilith gets up from the couch and starts to leave when she turns around with a smirk across her face "Sister, it is also rude to assume such things. But you are correct about Alador. He really knows his way around" She winks at Eda leaving the room.

Eda stays frozen on the couch with her mouth wide open in shock, processing what her sister had just told her "No." She says in disbelief "You banged ALADOR BLIGHT!" No answer "LILLY!" The wild witch screams across the house, but there is still silence. 

Then after a minute of what seemed to be forever, Lilith walks back into the living room with her glass refilled "A witch never kisses and tells."

Eda screams and laughs as loud as she could muster. She was extremely proud of her older sister at this moment, and has never been more jealous before "Lilly you Slitherbeast!" As Lilith sits back down, Eda slaps her arm in encouragement. "DETAILS!" The witch sings.

"Remember junior year, when they went on a break for a couple of months?" Eda shakes her head rapidly, wanting to know the full story of their past. Lilith sits up straight "Well, I saw that Alador was upset in the lab that day. One thing that led to another, we realized we had the same test the next day, so we went to his house to study and blow off some steam."

Eda stares at her sister with admiration and awe. Her eyes were wide and filled with wonder, gaining more and more respect for her sister as the story goes on "Did Odalia ever find out?"

Lilith laughs "Oh yeah. You remember that time she bullied me in the cafeteria. You summoned an abomination army and it got out of control. Then we had to ban together and stop them from destroying the school."

"That was why she was bullying you!" Eda sits back onto the couch dumbfounded "How you had a crush on her, I'll never know."

"I told you, I only admired her work ethic!" Eda scolds Lilith's answer and Lilith just sighs "You've seen her. Practically the whole school liked her. But her personality way rotten. The Titan really flipped a coin with her."

Eda motions her hands into finger guns and points them at her sister "Bingo! But you're right. I don't blame you though." Lilith hums in response, and both the Clawthorne sisters take a long-lasting sip of their glasses of apple blood.

Luz and Amity walked side by side, enjoying the nature of the Boiling Isles that surrounded them. Overall, it's been a day to remember.

Luz tried to take her mind off of her destination by taking deep breaths and looking around at the familiar woods. She fidgeted with her beanie every once in a while but made it a goal not to fidget too much so she wouldn't attract the attention of the witch walking beside her.
