Simon quickly turned his attention to Munroe. As he waited for her to respond in her usual witty tone. "I take it you would have much rather to have left your skeletons in the closet. But holding such vital information from your superiors is punishable by death. And since you're no longer apart of a coven your fate lies within the Dark land Kingdom." Dalinda spoke with nothing but confidence while looking directly at Munroe. As if daring her to refuse to any further negotiations.

"What is it that you'd like to know?" Munroe asked bluntly before she went back to mixing her herbs. "Everything you know about the prophecy." Dalinda responded. Which caused Munroe to sigh loudly before running a hand through her hair.

"Fine." Munroe stated before rolling her eyes.

"The prophecy was foretold 300 years ago. It's said to be in the grimoire of every coven of powerful witches. My sister Ophelia created the rose of death and with it's creation along came the prophecy." Munroe explained before she paused and glanced at a confused Simon.

"Yes, that would make me over 300 years old. Witches have the ability to choose whether they wanted to be immortal or not. I lost my sister to her intoxicating obsession with dark magic. So I chose to become immortal to see if this prophecy would become a reality. Your friends, Miranda and Athena aren't under the spell of the rose of death they're just sleeping." Munroe said.

"Impossible! I saw Miranda touch that rose and fainting as a consequent. As did Athena because she touched Miranda." Simon stated as he shook his head in disbelief at what Munroe was saying.

"What you saw was an illusion you fool! I placed that flower there for Athena not Miranda. Miranda was simply collateral damage. Athena is the healer who gave birth to a child with more powers than anyone of us in this room possess. That child is said to be the undoing to every super natural being and not just creatures of your kingdom. I've been watching you all since Enyo was a baby. Now, years later I watched as your kingdom was destroyed. Just as the prophecy stated! And I followed you through the forest and I planted that rose." Munroe said without any remorse for her previous actions.

"You evil witch!" Simon shouted as he paced around the small room. Munroe rolled her eyes before snapping her fingers and silencing an angry Simon. "Your friends are asleep! If I wanted you all dead I would've killed you with my bare hands." Munroe said glaring at him. Simon sat quietly as he placed his fingers on his forehead where Munroe once placed her herbs. Noticing this Munroe sighed heavily before shaking her head.

"My herbs aren't and were never lethal they were merely allowing me to access your thoughts to see where Enyo is. Unfortunately neither of you guys knew." Munroe stated placing her bowl of completely mixed herbs aside.

"In case you haven't guessed it the Dark land kingdom is very large. It's the home of the most dangerous creatures and as a consequent the kingdom is divided into 4 sectors. The largest sector is ruled by the dragons since they're royalty. Then there's the wolves and vampires and lastly a few witches. So though you might have known that she was in the Dark land kingdom you were unaware of which sector. And it's far too dangerous to go 'Enyo hunting' in the home of those vile creatures." Munroe said answering Simon's unasked questions.
