As Sheila stares at the pages then looks down to Willo the Rockseer elf appears in the living room. "I had this book fall so you would read it and understand what is happening. I need you to understand. The mother was trying to kill him, the father is Human and will never understand our ways, and you are fierce and would protect him with your life. Because of this I will grant you the knowledge of what we are and what needs to happen." Sheila nods her head slowly holding Willo to her chest tightly. "I can sense your power rising witch and there is no need for this. I will not harm you or this child. Somewhere you can feel this." Sheila looks the man in the face and takes a deep breath to calm down. "What is your name?" Sheila asks trying to be a good host. "That is not important." Says the man. "All you need to know is that I am an Ancient. I will be the father and teacher this baby needs till we decide what family to send him to. I overheard the plan of putting Willo up for adoption. My kind and I agree with this. That is why I will take him from you today. I will wipe your memory of this until it is important for you to remember." Sheila begins to cry softly. "Please don't let anything happen to him and make sure that he is in a well deserving family where he will be loved and cared for." Sheila sniffles. She hands Willo to the man. "One more thing if you don't mind. Could you please keep the name Willo, and place him in a witch household. This way they will know what he is and be able to care for him the way he should be." The man shakes his head. "Yes." Sheila kisses Willo. "I love you. Know your Grams loves you and that this is for the best. I promise you that one day we will meet again." The man starts to walk off. "I want you to know that he is very special. He will do great things in his life with the proper training. He will outlive us all. He has the ability to bring peace to this world or the ability to crush it and bring it into full darkness. When the time is right you will remember this as well, just not before." With the man saying his last words, "I bid you farewell Sheila Bennett, and I am taking this book with me." and then he's gone.

Sheila gets a sad feeling. "I know placing you for adoption was the right call. I will see you again Willo." Sheila walks out of the living room and packs up all the baby things she has laying around the house. She calls Rudy. He answers the phone. "It is done." Rudy replies "Thank you Sheila. Now we never speak of this again." Sheila nods her head "Okay. How is Abby?" "She's doing alright. The doctor told her to go to therapy and has prescribed her medication. He said it's best we not bring the baby up to Abby until she's ready. This could be years." Sheila has a few tears slip from her eyes. "I understand Rudy. Take care of her." She hangs up the phone and sits back down in the living room where she falls asleep on the couch feeling lost.
