[FLASHBACK. . .]
SODOM: The Central Coven.
Two Months After Xanthe's Birth.
Within the gloomy walls of the ritual circle, Great Mother Tenebra sat at the head of a large circular table while the other elders of the Central Coven sat in their designated seats.
The elders' faces were grim and condescending as they spoke their minds, but Tenebra remained poised while listening to them quietly.
"The boon was brought to Sodom through a witch of the Central Coven, why then shall we share its power with the other Covens?" Elder Noctula, the head of the elders of the Central Coven addressed the table while the rest of the elders nodded in agreement. "The handover of The Great Mother Seat would commence in a week and both the boon and our hold on Sodom would be handed over to the Eastern coven."
Her voice took a low tone as she turned to ask Tenebra, "Can we truly trust them?"
