“Izzy? As in, Lady Isabella?” I ask.

“Most likely. Princess Jasmine seemed close, and the Barslows have had some kind of connection to the Silver Witches...” Isla replies.

“They are Witches. At least, they have the gene. Some possess the powers, whereas others just carry the gene.” Rachel informs her.

“We have two Barslow descendants here. This is Lizzy Barslow. The daughter of Warrick. She hates him as much as we do, maybe more.” I introduce and Isla leans down to shake Lizzy’s small hand.

“Okay.”

“The rest will stay behind.”

“Sounds like a plan.” I reply and Isla nods. My team, with our newest members set off to Harnesk. A fairly simple journey. Until we arrive...
