Before Eda started the rebellion thirty five years ago the lives of the witches from Titan had deteriorated. they become like a hive mind, selfless zombies at the services of their respective coven leaders and the emperor himself. Even her sister, Lilith, the more goodly-doing person of their family, the Clawthorne, was standing by her side since the moment the rebellion started.

Thirty five long years had happened since that fateful day, when their parents sold their own daughter to the emperor coven's in exchange of power. That day they vowed to prevent this from happening ever again. Many had joined their cause and many had fallen defending their own ideas, from curses, magic and steel of their sworn enemies. Fifteen year after the start of the rebellion in the cold and secluded forest they were hiding Lilith and Eda found a baby, a human baby, a very rare phenomenon in the Boiling Kingdom. They found the little child beside both of their parents, their heart pierced by a horrible ice magic. Both of them swore that day that they would take care of the little child. A little girl with brown hair and brown eyes wrapped in a withe blanket with yellow stars and a name sewed to it. Lilith widened her eyes "Luz" she said outloud and Eda responded to her sister "Luz Clawthorne, that's her new full name". Lilith with teary eyes and a sad smile nodded to her sister silently both of them vowed and sweared to protect her from all harm and train her so she could became the best witch in all the kingdom and even the emperor would know the was going to have the best teacher, from that point their lives would become more exciting and more difficult.

Twenty years had passed from the day they had found Luz. Between protecting Luz, fighting a war and recruiting more witches to their sides had taken a toll from both Clawthorne but Luz had become such a good girl, a good witch and one of their best bowwoman of the rebelion. They had won more battles thanks to the determination of giving Luz the best life she could have and freeing all the kingdom from the abusive and controlling system they were in. That was the plan until a letter was delivered to them directly from the emperor himself. Two days after the battle of bonesborough and controlling the majority of the kingdom's territory the letter was delivered by a personal courrier of the emperor. The idea of receiving a letter from the emperor was insane even if they weren't on the enemy's side and that fact was alarming and dangerous, Lilith was the one who accepted the letter.

Lilith Pov

After our successful attack and conquest of bonesborough two days ago our camp became more cheerful, more than we had seen in quite a long time, "too long" she thought to herself and started to hum while walking the perimeter of the camp. She was happy with the calm of the forest. It was very near from bonesborough but well hidden or that's what I thought until someone cleared his throat staring at me. I quickly summoned my staff. A white staff with a raven carved on top with sapphire eyes and raising it to the new person with a premade fire spell ready to be casted at the unwelcome guest. Seeing that the person who gained her attention was unarmed and wearing the messenger coven uniform I felt relieved but kept ready to attack no matter what. He was scared of seeing me or that's what he looked like, quivering and shaking his whole body then he bowed and presented me with a letter raising his right arm then he said " this is a letter from the emperor Belos. He wishes for peace in his kingdom. All is explained in the letter, please receive it". He continued to quiver in his place I thought for a moment and decided to accept the letter since there was no other thing to do. It was better to know what Belos wanted with them and how he wanted to bring peace to the kingdom "maybe he had seen his mistakes and repent them or is a trap" I thought. After accepting the letter but before the messenger could react she knocked him down and casted an illusion spell so the camp remained hidden from him "precaution is always needed" I thought and began sprinting to where my sister and niece were.

The sprint was short and quick. When I was outside of the Owl house a demon summoned by Eda was, to my distaste, the house they live in. Since both of us used to live in different houses, mine was the raven house. When I was about to knock on the door, the damned demon tube or Hooty stretched to talk to me saying "hoot! How all is hanging, raven lady?Hoot" my anger was rising inside but I maintained a calm exterior and replied " all good Hooty, now could you let me in to talk to Edalyn and Luz?" getting angrier at each passing second but the demon instead of answering he just opened the door, letting out a sight I entered the cozy house.
