"What are we going to do?" Angel asked, looking at Candy and Diana.

"I don't know..." Marisol trailed off, her face going vacant.

"Is it possible for visions to be warped?" Seokjin asked worried. Arianna and Kylie stood staring at each other before Marisol looked up quickly.

"Cleopatra!" She exclaimed, jumping up slightly. Youngjae looked at her before looking back at Arianna and Kylie.

"What?" He asked, eyes shifting from one Volatus to another.

"Marisol's right," Esmeralda began, looking up excited. "Cleopatra was a Natu but she was sentenced to death as a traitor. She had a vision claiming that her siblings were going to overthrow Egypt and the Volatus society thus taking power for themselves. It's said that 2 out of her 5 siblings were killed by her hands. Octavian, the next Natu, slipped a poison into her drink, causing her to die and he claimed that it was for the greater good. No one dared question him since he was Natu ," Esmeralda said, her eyes sparkling in excitement.

"I thought she committed suicide?!" Namjoon said, surprised.

"The way the rest of the world learned it was by the memoirs of Octavian. He didn't want others to know that he warped her vision and caused her to commit treason, making him the legal Natu."

"But how do you know this?" Jackson asked.

"Esmeralda has always loved the story of Cleopatra so she committed it to memory," Angel said calmly. Esmeralda nodded rapidly.

"That still doesn't explain shit."

"It's because of me," Diana piped up. "I was Octavian's second in command and he confessed to me, and during the Hellenistic time period, it was kill or be killed. I didn't say anything and just continued like that. We got married and I used that as my chance to strike. I made his death look like he died from natural causes but this is Ancient Rome— I could've stabbed him and people would believe me if I said an antelope did it." Diana huffed looking away from the shocked expressions of the boys.

"You were married to THE Agustus, THE Octavian, THE KING OF ROME!" Jackson exclaimed.

"Are we just going to ignore the fact that she murdered someone?" Jaebum asked, looking at Diana slightly scared.

"I murdered a murderer, besides—you have no idea what type of husband he is," Diana huffed. They nodded unsure and looked at Esmeralda.

"So it is possible for a vision to be warped?" Jackson asked. Everyone had to refrain from facepalming.

"How can we find out if it was warped?" Arianna asked herself, unaware that Taehyung was behind her.

"No idea, don't you have a library or something?" Taehyung said, jumping back quickly when Arianna spun back, sword drawn.

"Jesus Christ! Don't sneak up on me like that! I could've stabbed you!"

"But you didn't!"

"But I could've!"

"But you didn't."

"But—" Arianna was cut off by a pair of lips on her own. She blushed profusely and shoved Taehyung half-heartedly. Taehyung pulled away, boxy grin on display. Arianna froze and looked away turning towards the direction of the library.

"So there is a library!"

"Hyung, how confident are you that the answer is going to be here?" Hoseok asked Yoongi, looking around nervously. Both of them stayed crouched, trying not to hit themselves with the low ceiling of the attic.
