Alcina held you close to her as you were walking through the Castles hallway, a small thought made you stop. She looked down to you confused,

"What's the matter?" she kneeled down and stroke your face.

"Cassandra and Bela were talking about a dagger which is powerful enough to kill any monster, I was thinking if we could use that against Mother Miranda"

Her eyes shifted from being worried to being afraid, she stopped stroking your face and looked away.

"That dagger would be the death of me and those foolish siblings..."

You gently stroke her arms,

"It will only be the death of Mother Miranda. I will make sure of that"

She didn't answer for a while, the silence was starting to fill the hallway.

"Alright my dear. I'll entrust the dagger in your hands. Just be careful with it"

You nodded and gave her a kiss on the cheek before she called out to her daughters, who appeared in seconds.

"Cassandra. I want you to get the masks and insert them into the statues, the dagger will be taken into Y/Ns care"

Cassandra hesitated and looked at you.

"Mother, are you sure she can handle a dagger?" she asked her Mother. Lady Dimitrescu raised an eyebrow,

"You've seen her handle your sickle before. A dagger shouldn't be any different"

Cassandra sighed and dissapeared in her swarm to get the masks. You then continued to walk back to the main hall with the daughters and your lover, seeing the statues rise from the floor again.

"What if she cuts herself with it on accident?" Daniela asked.

Alcina looked at her daughter a bit worried and walked towards her, stroking her face,

"The poison won't affect her, so don't you worry about that" she gave her a kiss on the forehead and walked back to you.

Cassandra appeared with the masks in her arms and inserted them back into their places, making the door open up again. They all looked at you, which made you feel uneasy, but you walked outside to get the dagger. You opened the coffin and took it out, looking at it. It had the same sigil of the Castle engraved on the side of it,

"Why does she have such a deadly dagger inside of here in the first place?" you sighed and turned back around, stopping in front of a flock of birds, which were looking at you. You were starting to get sick of birds and just walked past them back to the Castle, closing the door behind you.

"Daniela, get her a secure bag for the dagger"

Daniela quickly dissappeared in her swarm and searched a bag for you. The other two daughters kept their distance from you, they were afraid of that dagger and its power.

"Why was this dagger inside of this Castle? Why didn't you get rid of it?" you looked up to her. She didn't answer, her hat was covering her face, making it difficult for you to see her expressions. Daniela came back with a bag and handed it to you, she didn't seem so afraid of the dagger like her other two sisters.

"Be careful not to cut yourself anyways, alright?" she pat your head and walked back to her sisters. You smiled and put it inside the bag, making sure that it was secured inside of it. You looked up to Lady Dimitrescu,

"Are you ready to go?" you asked her. She let out a small sigh and nodded, kneeling down to her daughters and giving each one of them a kiss on the forehead.
