LIAM: Okay. She is paying him no mind at the
moment?
MATT: At the moment, no. It looks like she is
going to and from this little homestead and
putting things into this cauldron.
LIAM: I whisper in fragments what I saw through
Frumpkin’s eyes the whole time, but I’m still
looking and I can’t hear anybody.
MARISHA: Do you have any awake?
TALIESIN: Just us.
LIAM: Oh, right, I would be holding onto Molly.
This is reminding me of stories that my mother
told me when I was very young. Not good ones,
things to scare me into following the rules. I
come out of it.
TALIESIN: A child?
LIAM: And a woman, or not.
TALIESIN: That does have a vibration, doesn’t it?
I’m not at my best right now. If they’re human,
even if they’re friendly, I’m not the first face
you’d want to see.
LIAM: Quickly. Have to think here, because
everyone else is sleeping and that didn’t look
good for that little boy, but then it doesn’t
really help us with what we are doing, but then
the child. What to do?
TALIESIN: You have a friendly owl.
LIAM: I go back into Frumpkin to see what’s going
on.
MATT: Okay. You watch now as the woman takes a
small clay cup and dips it into this cauldron and
pulls out this steaming mass of liquid that she’s
contained within it, turns to the child, walks
over and kneels down beside. Places the long
fingers along the shoulder and hands the cup to
the child. The child takes it, looking at her, and
slowly sips from it. Burns the mouth a little bit.
LIAM: I swat at Molly and say: Wake the others.
TALIESIN: Fine. I start quietly waking.
MARISHA, SAM, and ASHLY: What? What?
TALIESIN: I somehow woke everyone at the exact
same time. It’s one of my many powers.
SAM: We were all spooning.
TALIESIN: Left hand, right hand, tail. I got it
all working at once. We’ve got a bit of a
situation outside.
SAM: Where?
TALIESIN: It’s going to require some delicacy.
SAM: Is Caleb gone?
TALIESIN: Caleb’s dead. It’s all over.
SAM: No!
MARISHA: You’re looking at him.
SAM: Okay. I didn’t know if he was a phantom or
something.
ASHLY: What’s going on?
TALIESIN: There’s a boy, there’s an old woman.
LIAM: I’m not sure, but I think there is a young
child that’s in danger there. We seemed to care
about the bird child, maybe we care about this
