Mason's grandfather, Henry O'Donnell. My grandfather, Winston Frey, And Yours, Frederick Daniels. They were all accused of witchcraft.Any questions so far?"he paused. I shook my head and he continued.
" Well, they were torn from their families, and thrown in prison. It was about the middle of October, and those five broke out. They escaped, but they had a secret to hide. They really were witches. Well, a kind of witch. There were Clayters,Aquates,Airmytes, and Fyrens. But there was one of them, whose power was much greater than the others. And that was Frederick Daniels. He was the Savior, as you could put it. He saved our ancestors. What was special about him, is that he possessed all of the powers. He possessed Fyren,Aquates,Airmytes,and Clayters. He was exraodinary. Like you. We all possess our power like our grandfathers. Nelly and Hailey are Aquates. Mason is a Clayter. Jordan is a Airmyte. and I'm a Fyren. And you, Allison, are a Savior. You have all the powers."
