Hecate returned to her office.

She took four sheets of parchments and wrote on each an invitation. She then called for an owl to deliver her messages.

Oddly enough there was a tap on the door. She opened it and there was an owl there. She went to attach the note but the owl already had a note tied to its leg.

She untied the note.

They had owled her? They had discovered something that may help with her condition... This group wasn't exactly a medical board approved group of potioneers... but if muggles sometime went to medicine-men, why couldn't she try that?

Because she was tired...

... Tired of having her hopes brought up and then shot down so quickly. Tired of fighting with healers... tired of fighting this... condition.

But she was a mother of two now, thanks to her friend. And she wanted to see her newest daughter would be like... she wanted to see Sierra grow into a woman... and there was the Captain that had finally come back into her life.

She'd go. She'd make the trip. She had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

She put a galleon in the owl's beak and tied her invitations to it's legs and sent it off.
