Every week, I go visit my brother, Sebastian, at his potion shop.
Call me crazy, but something about having most of the pixies you know sold on Ebay will suddenly make you cherish family a lot more.
Even your brother's creepy girlfriend.
I enjoy my visits with the two of them, and Eris really does love him, so I guess it's all good.
Anyway, as I was leaving tonight, I was in for a bit of a shock.
Madera's house was gone, but that wasn't the shocking part. I brokered its leaving, for crying out loud. No, what took its place...
... I ran up to it to touch it, and to see if it was really there. And it was.
C&M Books and Coffee is back!!!
I don't know where it's been, or why. But it's back.
And it's just as empty as it was when Clara and I first bought it from Chloris last year.
Only it was really different, and lonely, looking around at it without Clara.
The lights still worked, which is great.
I flew up the stairs, just to see what there might be to see.
And there was nothing.
The lights still worked, and that's when I noticed them.
Forgotten books on a shelf was what I thought at first, but the titles made it obvious to me that they were more than just that.
They were the first two books I put in the store. My favorite and Clara's favorite. It's no coincidence they're here. She must've left them so I'd know she was around!
And I determined right then and there that once I found the "C" in "C&M Books and Coffee" we're getting this book store back in business and then things might just get back to normal in the Wylde Kingdom!
Now I just wonder where all the OTHER books went. Hmm...
