“She’s can’t help you. . . . She’s not your Goddess. And now, we find out once and for all,” announced Gaea. “Ranec, Magic or muggle!”
Just then, Wilmara stepped out of one of the nearby tipis.
“What is happening here?” signed Wilmara.
Seeing the sudden movement, Gaea dropped Ranec and shot a silent stunner at Wilmara. Ranec’s head hit the rock with a sickening:
CRACK!
splattering brains all over everyone in the vicinity.
Gaea was distracted by the way in which Ranec had so messily died, which gave Wilmara a moment to stare in shock. When Gaea turned her wand back on her, Wilmara apparated back to the tipi.
Pop!
Suddenly appearing in front of her sister, Wilmara pushed Aphrodionephthys down and took her wand, before apparating behind Luna.
Pop!
Wilmara tried to silently cast a ‘Finite’ on the spells holding Luna. But the wand was fighting her. She’d never tried using someone else’s wand, especially one as poorly suited to her as her sister’s wand was. Wilmara managed to remove the Full Body Bind from Luna, but when she tried to banish the Incarcerous, a Shield appeared between her and Luna, cast by Gaea.
Pop!
Gaea appeared behind Wilmara, who dodged to the side. Luna cried out as the stinging hex meant for Wilmara hit her.
Wilmara retaliated with a Stone-cutting Curse, But Gaea had summoned a small rock to intercept the Curse, dissipating the effect.
Pop!
Pop!
Both Weeches apparated away at once. Wilmara had the misfortune to appear with her back turned to Gaea, and was hit before she could face her. Wilmara’s legs wobbled uncontrolibly as she retaliated with a stream of Bees shooting out of her wand.
Gaea drowned the bees in a stream of water from the tip of her wand, then dodged Wilmara’s next spell in a roll that she turned into a spin.
Pop!
Gaea appeared behind Wilmara and Stunned her in the back.
“Very entertaining . . . I haven’t had a duel that tough in years!” exclaimed Gaea. “Did you see how well your sister did, Artemiseleneris.”
“My sister?” asked Artemiseleneris.
“Yes, this is obviously your older sister, Wilmara,” explained Gaea. “Don’t worry I’m sure she’ll adapt to the new ways as soon as they are done. Why don’t you take her back in the tipi and stay with your sisters.”
“Yes, Gaea. Wingardium Leviosa!” said, Artemiseleneris, as she swished and flicked her wand to lift her sister and carry her back to the tipi.
“Now then,” said Gaea, turning back to her captives and switching back to English. “Looks like Ranec was pure muggle after all. And you, neither of you could save him. Do you see it Ayla? Do you see your daughter losing her faith in her Goddess? It occurs to me that Iza is not your first child, is she Ayla? Perhaps tonight we should go after Durc and his pack of flatheads?”
“The other Clans with never let you get away with this!” yelled Iza, not seeing Luna shake her head ‘no’. “They’ll stop you!”
“Other Clans? . . .” asked Gaea, before turning to her Priestess, Antigonerissulla and switching back to Sungaean. “You and Kreonarcicusarpedon, awaken the adults one by one. Give them a dose of Veritiserum potion and ask them what Clan they are from and where it is located.”
Turning by to Iza, Gaea wiped a bit of Ranec’s blood that had spattered on her off on Iza’s cheek.
“So . . . lets see how your children do on the magic test?”
Gaea levitated the comatose Talula in front of Iza.
“Your daughter . . . let’s see if her magic will save her?”
“Luna! Please stop her!” begged Iza.
“Mara, please don’t do this,” asked Luna. “I’m sorry for what happened to you. But hurting others won’t make it better. Just stop being a Dark Lady and walk away. I believe in you. You can do it . . .”
“You’re lying . . .” whispered Gaea, before raising her wand. Taluta rose and she pointed upwards. Gaea turned her over so that her head was pointed down and dropped her . . . .
BOING!
Taluta’s head hit the stone and she bounced away.
“It worked! I really worked!” exclaimed Gaea. “Oh, we are going to have so much fun with this!”
Gaea repeated the experiment with all five of Iza’s daughters. Like the oldest, their accidental magic jumped in and saved them. Gaea drug the process out to make it as dramatic as possible. By the time she was done, Iza and Ayla were both sobbing uncontrolibly while Luna hung her head and silently cried.
That night, Gaea led her weez-urs on a raid of Durc’s Flamel Clan.
Durc and his mates Ura and Đorča were spared for now.
But Boom son of Uma was killed along with his mate: Borvna daughter of Bona. Also killed were Dorv, son of Oga, and his mates: Đukić, daughter of Jukić, and Bona daughter of Ona.
Corg son of Oga was killed, along with his mates: Vuba and Eba. Both of them were daughters of Ayla’s adopted sister, Uba.
The summary executions continued with Gregr, son of Oogra, and his sister/mate: Grooga, daughter of Oogra.
Crum, son of Uma died, as did his mate. Grooga, daughter of Igra.
Gaea personally killed Urc son of Ura, who was of Ranec’s Spirit. He had been designated the next Leader after Durc. His Mate, Uba, daughter of Uba was also killed.
Don son of Bona, his mate: Oova, daughter of Oogra both died.
Drona son of Orga, and his mate Moga, daughter of Ura were killed.
Zuvda, son of Ebra died with his mates: Đukiča, daughter of Đukić, and Borma, daughter of Cruma.
And the last to die were Urb, son of Uba and Đurča, daughter of Đorća.
By the time Gaea returned, Antigonerissulla and Kreonarcicusarpedon had learned of the existence and approximate location of the Lovegood, Mrđyn, Nott, Olivander, Peverell, and Quirell Clans. They also leaned of the existence of Mariza’s Hufflepuff Clan. To pinpoint their locations, Gaea went back to Luna’s cave and used an owl When she sent a letter, she would disillusion herself and follow the owl as it delivered it to the Clan’s locations. From Luna’s cave, she was able to find the Caves of the Lovegood, Mrđyn and Olivander Clans.
That night, Gaea and her weez-urs raided the Lovegood Clan. Where they summarily Executed Boov, son of Ena and his mates: Ugra, daughter of Uva and Broona, daughter of Ena.
Zoug son of Uva and his mates: Hažđa, daughter of Halđa, and Larnka daughter of Larnzi, widow of Veltrn of the Vanthonoi.
Đaylan, son of Đuže and his mates: Boograva, daughter of Ugra and Larnkura, daughter of Larnzi, widow of Veltin, of the Vanthonoi, who had Forced Mariza.
Once the Draught of Living Death was fed to the children and adults who were to be spared, they were sent back to the Dragon Camp. Gaea then led her weez-urs on a raid of the Mrđyn Clan that had spun off of Durc’s Clan.
Few were spared.
Broov the Leader, son of Uva was killed along with his mate Boorvna, daughter of Borvna. Gaea recognised his other mate: Ruža and she was spared for now.
Borv, son of Bona was killed with his mates: Cruma, daughter of Uma and Cuba, daughter of Vuba.
Bruž, son of Ruža was killed, along with his mate Oga.
Vođić son of Šimiča was killed with his mates: Ura, named after her mother, Ura and Bruža, daughter of Oga.
Greeb, son of Eva died with his mates, Cruma, daughter of Uma and Groogra, daughter of Grooga.
And Finally, Đragan, son of Đanđrič, and his mate, Vronkura, daughter of Larnuira of the Vanthonoi died.
The Olivander cave
“Mama, I want go trench,” said 5-year-old Agooa.
“Use the Night basket,” mumbled Igooa.
“I don’ like the nite baket, It stinky. I want go trench!” whined Agooa.
“All right, let’s go,” mumbled Igooa, as she sat up.
She didn’t bother getting dressed, she just wrapped a fur cloak around herself and a smaller one around her daughter. They left the cave in the middle of the night and walked down the hill to the trench. Watching her daughter empty her bladder made her need to go too. Once they were done, they started back up the hill. But then they saw flashes of light inside the cave. Igooa knew magic when she saw it. And the voices she heard were speaking an unfamiliar language.
“Shhh” Igooa put her hand over her daughter’s mouth and whispered: “We need to go hide.”
They went back down the hill, past the trench and up over the other hill, where Igooa made her daughter curl up and sleep in her cloak while she silently prayed to Luna that the bad people wouldn’t find them.
Gaea went to the Olivander Clan’s cave last, that night. Once they had all been stunned and the weez-urs went to each hearth and tried to summon a wand. If someone had a wand, everyone was spared, if not, the adults were executed and the children were spared. The survivors were dosed with Draught of living Death and brought back to the Dragon Camp.
But Roov, son of Ruža, mate of Igooa was not spared.
nor was Vorg, son of Vuba and his Mate Zebra, daughter of Ebra.
It was long after the sun had arisen before Igooa had the courage to creep into the cave. She found it empty, except for her mate, Roov, dead, with his throat cut, along with Vorg and Zebra. Everyone else, was gone, even the children. Igooa hugged her dead mate to her and wailed her grief.
The next day, Gaea port-keyed to the Home of the Đumbleđore član and repeated the owl trick to find the locations of the Nott, Peverell, and Quirell člans.
That night Gaea raided three more člans, repeating her culling of the adult muggles and bringing back all the children and suspected magicals. The Notts were raided first. They had hived off from the Đumbleđore član and lived on the shore, where a river flowed into the sea. The Everarđ’s lived in a valley that the same river flowed through, upstream.
Nearly all the adults were killed including: Rađić the Leader, son of Đuča and his mates Đelić and Željka. Both of his mates had been Harvatišaranaa as children before being enslaved.
Uva, son of Uva, his mates: Lűna, daughter of Krstulović and Đejđuča, daughter of Đejič were killed. Krstulović the clanluna had named her daughter after her Goddess.
Trebotičić, son of Đuča, and his mates: Đanava, daughter of Harva and Đuže, daughter of Đuča died.
Knučavić, son of Đuča was killed along with his mates: Đanđrič, daughter of Đenarčhi and Đurča, daughter of Halđa.
Her brother, Anđarčhi, son of Đenarčhi and his mates: Heljka, daughter of Željka and Đimiča, daughter of Šimiča were killed.
Anđar, son of Đenarčhi died alongside his mates: Đovič, daughter of Čović, and Rihoviča, daughter of Rađna.
Bruž, son of Ruža and his mates: Jekiča, daughter of Đenarčhi and Đuvnjak, daughter of Željka were the last to be killed.
The next stop for Gaea was the Peverell član.
Grević the Leader, son of Đelić was killed along side his mate, Knežjka, daughter of Željka.
The presence of their wands saved the families of Ood, Zariz, Đeeš and Zoub. But Zariz and Želžum were spending the night in Androm’s room with Đuča, saving the lives of Androm’s mates.
The last član raided that night, was the Quirell član. They had hived off of the Everarđs and lived in a cave on the banks of the river, upstream from their mother član. Only one Hearth yielded a wand. The rest of the adults were executed, including:
Skekić the Leader, son of Đukiča and his mates: Űba daughter of Đoković, and Brunađa, daughter of Đoković.
Grig the male clanluna, son of Iga The Clanluna was killed, along with his two mates: Enerika, daughter of Jukić and Lonkura, daughter of Larnzi of the Vanthonoi.
Bugrav, son of Ugra died with his mates: Jukiča, daughter of Jukić and Jeličiča, daughter of Đoković.
The last to die were: Đragan, son of Đanđrič and his mates: Erčeg, daughter of Jukić and Lonta, sister of Vesava and daughter of Larnva.
At the Cave of the Peverell član
Đelđuma was giddy with happiness! She had a wonderful mate that made her very happy and had just spent a night with her daughter Pariđa and her best friend, Androm, fishing and Sharing Pleasures to pass the time. On the night before they were supposed to go to the Summer Gathering, she and Androm had caught a huge number of fish! Đelđuma knew that fresh fish would make a better trade than dried ones at the Summer Gathering. Especially to the Clans that didn’t live near the sea. Things couldn’t be better!
She didn’t think it strange that no one came to help them untangle the fish from the net once they came ashore. But Đelđuma and Androm were having so much fun telling jokes and teasing each other that thoughts of others were not on their minds.
Once they had filled two large baskets with fish and folded up the net, they carried them down the trail leading back to the stone-house their član lived in.
It was strangely quiet. . . . Đelđuma set down her basket just inside the door of the central room, picked her daughter up out of it, and walked into the room she lived in with her mate, Zariz. . . . He hadn’t slept in his bed. This was nothing unusual. He often slept with the mate of the man she was fishing with. So she went to Androm’s room. No one was there either. . . . except Androm. The bedding looked to be slept in, but had not been made up when they awoke.
“Did they leave for the Summer Gathering without us?” asked Androm.
“And leave everything behind?” asked Đelđuma, picking up Zariz’ tunic and leggings. “And leave their clothes behind?”
“Let’s look around,” suggested Androm.
All the other rooms were the same, no people and it looked like they had left in a hurry. . . . then they went into Grević’ room. . . . He and Knežjka were still there . . . dead . . . with their throats cut! But their children were not.
“Hold me!” cried Đelđuma, suddenly fearful, as she fell into Androm’s arms.
Gaea
Gaea spent the next day portkeying to the Đumbleđore član’s former home and following an owl to the cave of the Hufflepuff Clan. Once she had found it, she apparated back. But after spending all day on a broom, she need to rest for a day before making the raid.
And so, two nights later, Gaea and her weez-urs port-keyed outside the cave of Mariza’s Hufflepuff Clan. When she had searched it out, Gaea had seen that there were lots of dogs in the area. But when she and her minnions appeared outside the cave in the middle of the night. They raised a bigger racket than the ones in Luna’s cave did. They all ran out to greet Gaea barking and growling at her. Some of them were also apparating short hops all around them.
“Silence them!” commanded Gaea, as she and her weez-urs started lashing out at the dogs and blink-dogs with their magic.
The dogs yelped when wounded and ran away or were silenced when stunned.
A human voice called out of the cave at them.
“They’re awake! Attack them!” commanded Gaea.
The resulting battle was brief. Gaea and the weez-urs fired stunners at the cave, and the people inside hurled Spears, arrows and sling stones back at them. Gaea and her forces couldn’t apparate or port-key inside the cave because none of them had ever been inside before. Finally, the last of the defenders was stunned and Gaea could enter. They quickly stunned the women and children. But once she was inside, Gaea marveled at the sight. Not only did the ceiling of the cave appear transparent, like Luna’s, showing the stars outside. But the walls were transparent too. I was like being outside. Attempting to summon wands produced no results, so Gaea ordered all adults killed, until she spotted Priamen . . .
“Not this one . . . .” said Gaea. “I want to take him back with the children.”
The others were all killed:
Zuradan, son of Zurvgakaza, mate of Vezava, who was not present, and Đebotiča, daughter of Đanava. Zuradan had been one of the four men Mariza had redfooted for and Đebotiča was the only one of Mariza’s mates that had stayed behind.
Zuradaz, son of Zurvgakaza and his mates: Vojkovica, daughter of Larnva, and Zurvgakava, daughter of Zurvgaka. Zuradaz had been one of the original three men that Mariza had redfooted. Vojkovica of the Vanthonoi had been abducted to be his mate. It was for her sake that Mariza appointed herself redfoot and clanluna of this Clan.
Zuragavaz, son of Zuragavaka and his mates: Zuragakadaza daughter of Zuragakada, and Zuragakaba, daughter of Zuragaka. Zuragavaz would have been the next Leader if Mariza hadn’t taken over.
Zurvgak the mog-ur, son of Zurvgakava and his mates: Zuragakabaza daughter of Zuragakaba and Larnza, daughter of Larnzia of the Vanthonoi, and Lontura, daughter of Larnva of the Vanthonoi. Zurvgak had been one of the original three men that Mariza redfooted. Zuragakabaza had been one of Vezava’s first lovers, before she even became a woman. Larnza was the mother of Vojkovica. Lontura had been Vezava’s sister.
Zubgranev, son of Zurbgrana, mated to Zuragakadava, daughter of Zuragakada, Larnva, daughter of Larnzia of the Vanthonoi, and Larnoja, daughter of Larnza of the Vanthonoi. Zubgranev had been the brother of Mariza’s mate: Zurbgranaza. Zuragakadava had been one of Vezava’s first lovers, before she even became a woman. Larnva was the mother of Vezava. Larnoja had been Vojkovica’s sister.
Zurvgakun, son of Zurvgakava and his mates: Zuragakabava, daughter of Zuragakaba, and Larnzava, sister of Vojkovica and daughter of Larnza of the Vanthonoi, and Larnvaza, sister of Vezava and daughter of Larnva of the Vanthonoi.
All were now dead. Priamen was the only adult taken back to the Dragon Camp.
After getting some sleep, Gaea once again, tied Luna to the post and had Iga The Clanluna brought before her.
“Now that you had some time to think about it, is there anything you’d like to say to your Goddess?” asked Gaea.
Iga just stood there, looking down. The 8-year-old body she was wearing had a slight tremor. It was obvious that in the 5 days that she had been constantly Forced that she had not been cleaned up very often. Gaea lifted her chin and looked into Iga’s eyes. Iga seemed not to see her at all. There was no one there.
“I can’t do anything with this,” said Gaea, in exaspriation. “Clean her up, let her Sleep. Keep her under constant guard. Let me know when she wakes so we can begin again.
Now then, let’s get rid of some of the dead wood in your worshipers.” Gaea teased Luna. “They’ll all get the same test that Iza’s children did. Won’t that be fun?”
“Please stop, Mara . . .” said Luna, weakly. She knew it wouldn’t do any good. But she had to try.
Gaea started with the youngest members of Luna’s Clan and their Families. Each was levitated above the flat stone and dropped on their heads. If they survived, they were magical, if not, they were muggle. What Gaea didn’t realize was that the first time she’d done it, the accidental magic of Luna, Ayla and Iza, combined with a little bit of the necromantic sacrifice of Ranec’s life had charged the Stone. Each time someone faced the test, it became a little easier for their accidental magic to save them. In a few cases, pure muggles were saved by the magic of those who had come before. She started with the families that had been in the 3rd Chamber, deepest in Luna’s cave. All of the Weez-urs in this Chamber had mated women from other Clans, whom they had agreed to move in with when their magical training was complete. The woman would be tied to the stake, and made to watch as her mate and children faced the Rock. If they survived, then the woman would be dropped on the rock.
And so, Rašiča Đumbleđore, daughter of Đihovilo died.
Then, Braga Abraxas, daughter of Brena died.
Štipiča Đumbleđore, was to the first muggle to be saved by the build up of accidental magic.
Đađiv, son of Đeča died.
Bruža Myđyn, daughter of Ruža died.
Dayla Flamel, daughter of Ura died.
Đrorva Abraxas, daughter of Orga died.
Đula Nott, daughter of Đelić died
Đelđuma Đumbleđore, daughter of Čović, who shared the same name as Zariz’ mate, died.
Đomažet Đumbleđore, daughter of Đuže died.
her older sister, Đorđevič, daughter of Đuže also died.
Ergovič Everarđ, daughter of Đoković died
The families in the 3rd chamber had been strangers to Gaea. The magicals had been the grandchildren or much younger children of Luna or Ayla. Each surviving adult was tied to a post behind the main circle of posts, which were reserved for Luna, Ayla, Iza, the woman of the family facing the rock and other important people.
Now that she had finished with the families of the 3rd Chamber, Gaea subject the families of the 2nd chamber to the same ordeal.
Gaea levitated a red-haired woman from pile. She was tied to a post in the inner circle and Gaea waved her wand to magically tie her too.
“Is this a daughter of Iga?” asked Gaea as she ran her hand through Žayliza’s hair.
“Leave her alone!” cried Ayla.
“Oh? . . . why do you care about her?” asked Gaea.
“Žayliza is my daughter.” replied Ayla.
“Is she? Hmmm. So you let one of Iga’s sons defeat your totem? Hmmmm . . ..” said Gaea, before giving Žayliza the antidote for the Draught of Living Death.
“Huh? wha? Eek!” squealed Žayliza, in fright at seeing Gaea’s Zar hat. She didn’t remember Zar, but it was still a frightening sight to see an undead head being worn as a hat.
“So you’re a daughter of Ayla? Here’s what’s going to happen. I’m going to drop your mate on this stone.” said Gaia, as she pointed at the blood-covered flat rock with a pile of bodies beside it. “If he’s a Weez-ur, he may survive. Then your son will face the same test, and finally, you. Ready?”
“Mother, stop her! Who is this monster?” pleaded Žayliza.
“I can’t she’s tied me up!” said Ayla, as she struggled against her bonds.
“Luna! Please Luna! You can stop her. I beg you. Please!” pleaded Žayliza.
Luna just hung her head and cried as Gaea levitated Žayliza’s mate, Zuragakadazad upside down above the stone, and high into the air.
“Luna can’t help you,” sneered Gaea. “She’s not the Goddess you should pray to . . . I am!”
Gaea released Zuragakadazad and his head hit the rock with a:
BOING!
Another muggle had benefited from the build-up of accidental magic. Žayliza’s son, Ažurag’s accidental magic saved him next. Before Žayliza’s saved her. She and her mate were then tied to posts further back from the circle.
Gaea the repeated the procedure on the other families of the 2nd chamber.
Droob, son of Brena, his mate: Bruna Flamel, Daughter of Eba and their daughter died. But their son: Abroob and their Adopted son, Jerat lived.
Šarič Đumblđore, son of Šimiča died.
Žarađ Everarđ, son of Harvđa and his mate: Eba, daughter of Eva died along with all their children, except Žeđ and Điđič.
Grena, daughter of Brena died.
The children of Booven and Vreva died, except for their son: Avoom.
Hrepiča Nott, daughter of Heljka died.
Đobriča Nott, daughter of Đuže died.
Now that she had finished the 2nd chamber. Gaea moved on to the 1st chamber, the one that contained people she knew.
The first family Gaea terrorized had three women in it. Selene, daughter of Luna, Zurbgranazaga, daughter of (Mariza’s mate) Zurbgranaza, and Vantha, daughter of Mariza were all tied to posts and revived.
In Gaea’s tipi
Wilmara shuddered as she threw off the stunner. She was back in the tipi. with the girls who were probably her sisters. And the oldest Weech that looked like them. When she saw Wilmara revive, she quickly drew her wand from behind her ear and pointed it at her.
Wilmara realized that she would have a harder time escaping her two sisters that now had wands trained on her.
She didn’t know how long she had been out. But if Wilmara had soiled herself, someone had cleaned her up. They’d also dressed her in a tunic of unfamiliar design that was long enough to be a summer-dress.
She could hear familiar voices outside wailing and crying.
A sickening: CRACK! let Wimara know that she if she was going to escape, she needed to do it soon!

“She’s can’t help you. . . . She’s not your Goddess. And now, we find out once and for all,” announced Gaea. “Ranec, Magic or muggle!”
Just then, Wilmara stepped out of one of the nearby tipis.
“What is happening here?” signed Wilmara.
Seeing the sudden movement, Gaea dropped Ranec and shot a silent stunner at Wilmara. Ranec’s head hit the rock with a sickening:
CRACK!
splattering brains all over everyone in the vicinity.
Gaea was distracted by the way in which Ranec had so messily died, which gave Wilmara a moment to stare in shock. When Gaea turned her wand back on her, Wilmara apparated back to the tipi.
Pop!
Suddenly appearing in front of her sister, Wilmara pushed Aphrodionephthys down and took her wand, before apparating behind Luna.
Pop!
Wilmara tried to silently cast a ‘Finite’ on the spells holding Luna. But the wand was fighting her. She’d never tried using someone else’s wand, especially one as poorly suited to her as her sister’s wand was. Wilmara managed to remove the Full Body Bind from Luna, but when she tried to banish the Incarcerous, a Shield appeared between her and Luna, cast by Gaea.
Pop!
Gaea appeared behind Wilmara, who dodged to the side. Luna cried out as the stinging hex meant for Wilmara hit her.
Wilmara retaliated with a Stone-cutting Curse, But Gaea had summoned a small rock to intercept the Curse, dissipating the effect.
Pop!
Pop!
Both Weeches apparated away at once. Wilmara had the misfortune to appear with her back turned to Gaea, and was hit before she could face her. Wilmara’s legs wobbled uncontrolibly as she retaliated with a stream of Bees shooting out of her wand.
Gaea drowned the bees in a stream of water from the tip of her wand, then dodged Wilmara’s next spell in a roll that she turned into a spin.
Pop!
Gaea appeared behind Wilmara and Stunned her in the back.
“Very entertaining . . . I haven’t had a duel that tough in years!” exclaimed Gaea. “Did you see how well your sister did, Artemiseleneris.”
“My sister?” asked Artemiseleneris.
“Yes, this is obviously your older sister, Wilmara,” explained Gaea. “Don’t worry I’m sure she’ll adapt to the new ways as soon as they are done. Why don’t you take her back in the tipi and stay with your sisters.”
“Yes, Gaea. Wingardium Leviosa!” said, Artemiseleneris, as she swished and flicked her wand to lift her sister and carry her back to the tipi.
“Now then,” said Gaea, turning back to her captives and switching back to English. “Looks like Ranec was pure muggle after all. And you, neither of you could save him. Do you see it Ayla? Do you see your daughter losing her faith in her Goddess? It occurs to me that Iza is not your first child, is she Ayla? Perhaps tonight we should go after Durc and his pack of flatheads?”
“The other Clans with never let you get away with this!” yelled Iza, not seeing Luna shake her head ‘no’. “They’ll stop you!”
“Other Clans? . . .” asked Gaea, before turning to her Priestess, Antigonerissulla and switching back to Sungaean. “You and Kreonarcicusarpedon, awaken the adults one by one. Give them a dose of Veritiserum potion and ask them what Clan they are from and where it is located.”
Turning by to Iza, Gaea wiped a bit of Ranec’s blood that had spattered on her off on Iza’s cheek.
“So . . . lets see how your children do on the magic test?”
Gaea levitated the comatose Talula in front of Iza.
“Your daughter . . . let’s see if her magic will save her?”
“Luna! Please stop her!” begged Iza.
“Mara, please don’t do this,” asked Luna. “I’m sorry for what happened to you. But hurting others won’t make it better. Just stop being a Dark Lady and walk away. I believe in you. You can do it . . .”
“You’re lying . . .” whispered Gaea, before raising her wand. Taluta rose and she pointed upwards. Gaea turned her over so that her head was pointed down and dropped her . . . .
BOING!
Taluta’s head hit the stone and she bounced away.
“It worked! I really worked!” exclaimed Gaea. “Oh, we are going to have so much fun with this!”
Gaea repeated the experiment with all five of Iza’s daughters. Like the oldest, their accidental magic jumped in and saved them. Gaea drug the process out to make it as dramatic as possible. By the time she was done, Iza and Ayla were both sobbing uncontrolibly while Luna hung her head and silently cried.
That night, Gaea led her weez-urs on a raid of Durc’s Flamel Clan.
Durc and his mates Ura and Đorča were spared for now.
But Boom son of Uma was killed along with his mate: Borvna daughter of Bona. Also killed were Dorv, son of Oga, and his mates: Đukić, daughter of Jukić, and Bona daughter of Ona.
Corg son of Oga was killed, along with his mates: Vuba and Eba. Both of them were daughters of Ayla’s adopted sister, Uba.
The summary executions continued with Gregr, son of Oogra, and his sister/mate: Grooga, daughter of Oogra.
Crum, son of Uma died, as did his mate. Grooga, daughter of Igra.
Gaea personally killed Urc son of Ura, who was of Ranec’s Spirit. He had been designated the next Leader after Durc. His Mate, Uba, daughter of Uba was also killed.
Don son of Bona, his mate: Oova, daughter of Oogra both died.
Drona son of Orga, and his mate Moga, daughter of Ura were killed.
Zuvda, son of Ebra died with his mates: Đukiča, daughter of Đukić, and Borma, daughter of Cruma.
And the last to die were Urb, son of Uba and Đurča, daughter of Đorća.
By the time Gaea returned, Antigonerissulla and Kreonarcicusarpedon had learned of the existence and approximate location of the Lovegood, Mrđyn, Nott, Olivander, Peverell, and Quirell Clans. They also leaned of the existence of Mariza’s Hufflepuff Clan. To pinpoint their locations, Gaea went back to Luna’s cave and used an owl When she sent a letter, she would disillusion herself and follow the owl as it delivered it to the Clan’s locations. From Luna’s cave, she was able to find the Caves of the Lovegood, Mrđyn and Olivander Clans.
That night, Gaea and her weez-urs raided the Lovegood Clan. Where they summarily Executed Boov, son of Ena and his mates: Ugra, daughter of Uva and Broona, daughter of Ena.
Zoug son of Uva and his mates: Hažđa, daughter of Halđa, and Larnka daughter of Larnzi, widow of Veltrn of the Vanthonoi.
Đaylan, son of Đuže and his mates: Boograva, daughter of Ugra and Larnkura, daughter of Larnzi, widow of Veltin, of the Vanthonoi, who had Forced Mariza.
Once the Draught of Living Death was fed to the children and adults who were to be spared, they were sent back to the Dragon Camp. Gaea then led her weez-urs on a raid of the Mrđyn Clan that had spun off of Durc’s Clan.
Few were spared.
Broov the Leader, son of Uva was killed along with his mate Boorvna, daughter of Borvna. Gaea recognised his other mate: Ruža and she was spared for now.
Borv, son of Bona was killed with his mates: Cruma, daughter of Uma and Cuba, daughter of Vuba.
Bruž, son of Ruža was killed, along with his mate Oga.
Vođić son of Šimiča was killed with his mates: Ura, named after her mother, Ura and Bruža, daughter of Oga.
Greeb, son of Eva died with his mates, Cruma, daughter of Uma and Groogra, daughter of Grooga.
And Finally, Đragan, son of Đanđrič, and his mate, Vronkura, daughter of Larnuira of the Vanthonoi died.
The Olivander cave
“Mama, I want go trench,” said 5-year-old Agooa.
“Use the Night basket,” mumbled Igooa.
“I don’ like the nite baket, It stinky. I want go trench!” whined Agooa.
“All right, let’s go,” mumbled Igooa, as she sat up.
She didn’t bother getting dressed, she just wrapped a fur cloak around herself and a smaller one around her daughter. They left the cave in the middle of the night and walked down the hill to the trench. Watching her daughter empty her bladder made her need to go too. Once they were done, they started back up the hill. But then they saw flashes of light inside the cave. Igooa knew magic when she saw it. And the voices she heard were speaking an unfamiliar language.
“Shhh” Igooa put her hand over her daughter’s mouth and whispered: “We need to go hide.”
They went back down the hill, past the trench and up over the other hill, where Igooa made her daughter curl up and sleep in her cloak while she silently prayed to Luna that the bad people wouldn’t find them.
Gaea went to the Olivander Clan’s cave last, that night. Once they had all been stunned and the weez-urs went to each hearth and tried to summon a wand. If someone had a wand, everyone was spared, if not, the adults were executed and the children were spared. The survivors were dosed with Draught of living Death and brought back to the Dragon Camp.
But Roov, son of Ruža, mate of Igooa was not spared.
nor was Vorg, son of Vuba and his Mate Zebra, daughter of Ebra.
It was long after the sun had arisen before Igooa had the courage to creep into the cave. She found it empty, except for her mate, Roov, dead, with his throat cut, along with Vorg and Zebra. Everyone else, was gone, even the children. Igooa hugged her dead mate to her and wailed her grief.
The next day, Gaea port-keyed to the Home of the Đumbleđore član and repeated the owl trick to find the locations of the Nott, Peverell, and Quirell člans.
That night Gaea raided three more člans, repeating her culling of the adult muggles and bringing back all the children and suspected magicals. The Notts were raided first. They had hived off from the Đumbleđore član and lived on the shore, where a river flowed into the sea. The Everarđ’s lived in a valley that the same river flowed through, upstream.
Nearly all the adults were killed including: Rađić the Leader, son of Đuča and his mates Đelić and Željka. Both of his mates had been Harvatišaranaa as children before being enslaved.
Uva, son of Uva, his mates: Lűna, daughter of Krstulović and Đejđuča, daughter of Đejič were killed. Krstulović the clanluna had named her daughter after her Goddess.
Trebotičić, son of Đuča, and his mates: Đanava, daughter of Harva and Đuže, daughter of Đuča died.
Knučavić, son of Đuča was killed along with his mates: Đanđrič, daughter of Đenarčhi and Đurča, daughter of Halđa.
Her brother, Anđarčhi, son of Đenarčhi and his mates: Heljka, daughter of Željka and Đimiča, daughter of Šimiča were killed.
Anđar, son of Đenarčhi died alongside his mates: Đovič, daughter of Čović, and Rihoviča, daughter of Rađna.
Bruž, son of Ruža and his mates: Jekiča, daughter of Đenarčhi and Đuvnjak, daughter of Željka were the last to be killed.
The next stop for Gaea was the Peverell član.
Grević the Leader, son of Đelić was killed along side his mate, Knežjka, daughter of Željka.
The presence of their wands saved the families of Ood, Zariz, Đeeš and Zoub. But Zariz and Želžum were spending the night in Androm’s room with Đuča, saving the lives of Androm’s mates.
The last član raided that night, was the Quirell član. They had hived off of the Everarđs and lived in a cave on the banks of the river, upstream from their mother član. Only one Hearth yielded a wand. The rest of the adults were executed, including:
Skekić the Leader, son of Đukiča and his mates: Űba daughter of Đoković, and Brunađa, daughter of Đoković.
Grig the male clanluna, son of Iga The Clanluna was killed, along with his two mates: Enerika, daughter of Jukić and Lonkura, daughter of Larnzi of the Vanthonoi.
Bugrav, son of Ugra died with his mates: Jukiča, daughter of Jukić and Jeličiča, daughter of Đoković.
The last to die were: Đragan, son of Đanđrič and his mates: Erčeg, daughter of Jukić and Lonta, sister of Vesava and daughter of Larnva.
At the Cave of the Peverell član
Đelđuma was giddy with happiness! She had a wonderful mate that made her very happy and had just spent a night with her daughter Pariđa and her best friend, Androm, fishing and Sharing Pleasures to pass the time. On the night before they were supposed to go to the Summer Gathering, she and Androm had caught a huge number of fish! Đelđuma knew that fresh fish would make a better trade than dried ones at the Summer Gathering. Especially to the Clans that didn’t live near the sea. Things couldn’t be better!
She didn’t think it strange that no one came to help them untangle the fish from the net once they came ashore. But Đelđuma and Androm were having so much fun telling jokes and teasing each other that thoughts of others were not on their minds.
Once they had filled two large baskets with fish and folded up the net, they carried them down the trail leading back to the stone-house their član lived in.
It was strangely quiet. . . . Đelđuma set down her basket just inside the door of the central room, picked her daughter up out of it, and walked into the room she lived in with her mate, Zariz. . . . He hadn’t slept in his bed. This was nothing unusual. He often slept with the mate of the man she was fishing with. So she went to Androm’s room. No one was there either. . . . except Androm. The bedding looked to be slept in, but had not been made up when they awoke.
“Did they leave for the Summer Gathering without us?” asked Androm.
“And leave everything behind?” asked Đelđuma, picking up Zariz’ tunic and leggings. “And leave their clothes behind?”
“Let’s look around,” suggested Androm.
All the other rooms were the same, no people and it looked like they had left in a hurry. . . . then they went into Grević’ room. . . . He and Knežjka were still there . . . dead . . . with their throats cut! But their children were not.
“Hold me!” cried Đelđuma, suddenly fearful, as she fell into Androm’s arms.
Gaea
Gaea spent the next day portkeying to the Đumbleđore član’s former home and following an owl to the cave of the Hufflepuff Clan. Once she had found it, she apparated back. But after spending all day on a broom, she need to rest for a day before making the raid.
And so, two nights later, Gaea and her weez-urs port-keyed outside the cave of Mariza’s Hufflepuff Clan. When she had searched it out, Gaea had seen that there were lots of dogs in the area. But when she and her minnions appeared outside the cave in the middle of the night. They raised a bigger racket than the ones in Luna’s cave did. They all ran out to greet Gaea barking and growling at her. Some of them were also apparating short hops all around them.
“Silence them!” commanded Gaea, as she and her weez-urs started lashing out at the dogs and blink-dogs with their magic.
The dogs yelped when wounded and ran away or were silenced when stunned.
A human voice called out of the cave at them.
“They’re awake! Attack them!” commanded Gaea.
The resulting battle was brief. Gaea and the weez-urs fired stunners at the cave, and the people inside hurled Spears, arrows and sling stones back at them. Gaea and her forces couldn’t apparate or port-key inside the cave because none of them had ever been inside before. Finally, the last of the defenders was stunned and Gaea could enter. They quickly stunned the women and children. But once she was inside, Gaea marveled at the sight. Not only did the ceiling of the cave appear transparent, like Luna’s, showing the stars outside. But the walls were transparent too. I was like being outside. Attempting to summon wands produced no results, so Gaea ordered all adults killed, until she spotted Priamen . . .
“Not this one . . . .” said Gaea. “I want to take him back with the children.”
The others were all killed:
Zuradan, son of Zurvgakaza, mate of Vezava, who was not present, and Đebotiča, daughter of Đanava. Zuradan had been one of the four men Mariza had redfooted for and Đebotiča was the only one of Mariza’s mates that had stayed behind.
Zuradaz, son of Zurvgakaza and his mates: Vojkovica, daughter of Larnva, and Zurvgakava, daughter of Zurvgaka. Zuradaz had been one of the original three men that Mariza had redfooted. Vojkovica of the Vanthonoi had been abducted to be his mate. It was for her sake that Mariza appointed herself redfoot and clanluna of this Clan.
Zuragavaz, son of Zuragavaka and his mates: Zuragakadaza daughter of Zuragakada, and Zuragakaba, daughter of Zuragaka. Zuragavaz would have been the next Leader if Mariza hadn’t taken over.
Zurvgak the mog-ur, son of Zurvgakava and his mates: Zuragakabaza daughter of Zuragakaba and Larnza, daughter of Larnzia of the Vanthonoi, and Lontura, daughter of Larnva of the Vanthonoi. Zurvgak had been one of the original three men that Mariza redfooted. Zuragakabaza had been one of Vezava’s first lovers, before she even became a woman. Larnza was the mother of Vojkovica. Lontura had been Vezava’s sister.
Zubgranev, son of Zurbgrana, mated to Zuragakadava, daughter of Zuragakada, Larnva, daughter of Larnzia of the Vanthonoi, and Larnoja, daughter of Larnza of the Vanthonoi. Zubgranev had been the brother of Mariza’s mate: Zurbgranaza. Zuragakadava had been one of Vezava’s first lovers, before she even became a woman. Larnva was the mother of Vezava. Larnoja had been Vojkovica’s sister.
Zurvgakun, son of Zurvgakava and his mates: Zuragakabava, daughter of Zuragakaba, and Larnzava, sister of Vojkovica and daughter of Larnza of the Vanthonoi, and Larnvaza, sister of Vezava and daughter of Larnva of the Vanthonoi.
All were now dead. Priamen was the only adult taken back to the Dragon Camp.
After getting some sleep, Gaea once again, tied Luna to the post and had Iga The Clanluna brought before her.
“Now that you had some time to think about it, is there anything you’d like to say to your Goddess?” asked Gaea.
Iga just stood there, looking down. The 8-year-old body she was wearing had a slight tremor. It was obvious that in the 5 days that she had been constantly Forced that she had not been cleaned up very often. Gaea lifted her chin and looked into Iga’s eyes. Iga seemed not to see her at all. There was no one there.
“I can’t do anything with this,” said Gaea, in exaspriation. “Clean her up, let her Sleep. Keep her under constant guard. Let me know when she wakes so we can begin again.
Now then, let’s get rid of some of the dead wood in your worshipers.” Gaea teased Luna. “They’ll all get the same test that Iza’s children did. Won’t that be fun?”
“Please stop, Mara . . .” said Luna, weakly. She knew it wouldn’t do any good. But she had to try.
Gaea started with the youngest members of Luna’s Clan and their Families. Each was levitated above the flat stone and dropped on their heads. If they survived, they were magical, if not, they were muggle. What Gaea didn’t realize was that the first time she’d done it, the accidental magic of Luna, Ayla and Iza, combined with a little bit of the necromantic sacrifice of Ranec’s life had charged the Stone. Each time someone faced the test, it became a little easier for their accidental magic to save them. In a few cases, pure muggles were saved by the magic of those who had come before. She started with the families that had been in the 3rd Chamber, deepest in Luna’s cave. All of the Weez-urs in this Chamber had mated women from other Clans, whom they had agreed to move in with when their magical training was complete. The woman would be tied to the stake, and made to watch as her mate and children faced the Rock. If they survived, then the woman would be dropped on the rock.
And so, Rašiča Đumbleđore, daughter of Đihovilo died.
Then, Braga Abraxas, daughter of Brena died.
Štipiča Đumbleđore, was to the first muggle to be saved by the build up of accidental magic.
Đađiv, son of Đeča died.
Bruža Myđyn, daughter of Ruža died.
Dayla Flamel, daughter of Ura died.
Đrorva Abraxas, daughter of Orga died.
Đula Nott, daughter of Đelić died
Đelđuma Đumbleđore, daughter of Čović, who shared the same name as Zariz’ mate, died.
Đomažet Đumbleđore, daughter of Đuže died.
her older sister, Đorđevič, daughter of Đuže also died.
Ergovič Everarđ, daughter of Đoković died
The families in the 3rd chamber had been strangers to Gaea. The magicals had been the grandchildren or much younger children of Luna or Ayla. Each surviving adult was tied to a post behind the main circle of posts, which were reserved for Luna, Ayla, Iza, the woman of the family facing the rock and other important people.
Now that she had finished with the families of the 3rd Chamber, Gaea subject the families of the 2nd chamber to the same ordeal.
Gaea levitated a red-haired woman from pile. She was tied to a post in the inner circle and Gaea waved her wand to magically tie her too.
“Is this a daughter of Iga?” asked Gaea as she ran her hand through Žayliza’s hair.
“Leave her alone!” cried Ayla.
“Oh? . . . why do you care about her?” asked Gaea.
“Žayliza is my daughter.” replied Ayla.
“Is she? Hmmm. So you let one of Iga’s sons defeat your totem? Hmmmm . . ..” said Gaea, before giving Žayliza the antidote for the Draught of Living Death.
“Huh? wha? Eek!” squealed Žayliza, in fright at seeing Gaea’s Zar hat. She didn’t remember Zar, but it was still a frightening sight to see an undead head being worn as a hat.
“So you’re a daughter of Ayla? Here’s what’s going to happen. I’m going to drop your mate on this stone.” said Gaia, as she pointed at the blood-covered flat rock with a pile of bodies beside it. “If he’s a Weez-ur, he may survive. Then your son will face the same test, and finally, you. Ready?”
“Mother, stop her! Who is this monster?” pleaded Žayliza.
“I can’t she’s tied me up!” said Ayla, as she struggled against her bonds.
“Luna! Please Luna! You can stop her. I beg you. Please!” pleaded Žayliza.
Luna just hung her head and cried as Gaea levitated Žayliza’s mate, Zuragakadazad upside down above the stone, and high into the air.
“Luna can’t help you,” sneered Gaea. “She’s not the Goddess you should pray to . . . I am!”
Gaea released Zuragakadazad and his head hit the rock with a:
BOING!
Another muggle had benefited from the build-up of accidental magic. Žayliza’s son, Ažurag’s accidental magic saved him next. Before Žayliza’s saved her. She and her mate were then tied to posts further back from the circle.
Gaea the repeated the procedure on the other families of the 2nd chamber.
Droob, son of Brena, his mate: Bruna Flamel, Daughter of Eba and their daughter died. But their son: Abroob and their Adopted son, Jerat lived.
Šarič Đumblđore, son of Šimiča died.
Žarađ Everarđ, son of Harvđa and his mate: Eba, daughter of Eva died along with all their children, except Žeđ and Điđič.
Grena, daughter of Brena died.
The children of Booven and Vreva died, except for their son: Avoom.
Hrepiča Nott, daughter of Heljka died.
Đobriča Nott, daughter of Đuže died.
Now that she had finished the 2nd chamber. Gaea moved on to the 1st chamber, the one that contained people she knew.
The first family Gaea terrorized had three women in it. Selene, daughter of Luna, Zurbgranazaga, daughter of (Mariza’s mate) Zurbgranaza, and Vantha, daughter of Mariza were all tied to posts and revived.
In Gaea’s tipi
Wilmara shuddered as she threw off the stunner. She was back in the tipi. with the girls who were probably her sisters. And the oldest Weech that looked like them. When she saw Wilmara revive, she quickly drew her wand from behind her ear and pointed it at her.
Wilmara realized that she would have a harder time escaping her two sisters that now had wands trained on her.
She didn’t know how long she had been out. But if Wilmara had soiled herself, someone had cleaned her up. They’d also dressed her in a tunic of unfamiliar design that was long enough to be a summer-dress.
She could hear familiar voices outside wailing and crying.
A sickening: CRACK! let Wimara know that she if she was going to escape, she needed to do it soon!
