"I-..it's Holden..." Alicia looked up at Solomon. "H-..he isn't himself. He is consumed with magic, he sits in his study all day and read his books. His power has grown immensely." She trailed off. "He had it planned out he was gonna buy a house, and get settled and then come talk to you." She said starting to settle down. "But we were walking through the city one day and he saw a little occult bookshop." She paused.

"Why they would have an occult bookshop in Fond du Lac Wisconsin is beyond me. Anyway he wanted to go in there and check it out." She sighed. "He walked out carrying every single book with spells and about witches and witchcraft, that the store had." She looked away.

"Every time I try to talk to him I get scared. He has gone through ten pendants in the past two months." She looked back at Solomon. "I know he burned the bridge to you by having his powers activated, but can you talk to him? Maybe you can talk some sense into him." She closed her eyes. "He doesn't even look like the Holden you knew two months ago." Alicia opened her eyes, they had deep worry in them.
