Alicia appeared in the doorway of the dining room, she flipped on the lights. "Is that my rum?" She pointed to the bottle. She tossed the book onto the table, and crossed her arms. "Why did you let the magic consume you?" She walked over to Holden and grabbed the bottle. She looked at it, "It is my rum!" She smacked Holden upside the head.

Holden looked up from his glass when the light's turned on. "I don't know Alicia. I think it was the fact that I felt how much power I could have." He took a drink. He rubbed his head, "Sorry, I didn't know." He looked down. "H-..how is Solomon?" Holden asked looking up to Alicia.

"Go and ask him. I see you have 'talked' to Melody." She sighed. "Go talk to Solomon, I know you want to." She took a swig from the bottle. She cleared her throat, "And you owe me a new bottle." Alicia grabbed the book and disappeared.

Holden sighed and chugged the rest of his drink. "He probably doesn't want to see me." He quickly assessed how much power he had left. "I should be able to get there and back." He took a deep breath and disappeared. He appeared on Solomon's doorstep, Holden knocked.
