No Changing the Past (Part 1)

"I would like to thank Magus Verhen for what he did for us." Borj said while looking Agra in the eyes. "But I'm the lucky one. I remember nothing and his actions only benefitted me. It's your choice, dear."

"Please, Mommy, no." Liru started to sob. "Keep him away. Make the darkness stay away."

Hearing her son's terrified cries broke Agra's heart and changed her mind.

"Tell Supreme Magus Verhen he can come to visit us at his earliest convenience." She said.

"Is now okay?" Shay asked.

"More than okay." Agra swallowed hard and tried to appear calm.

Shay talked briefly in her amulet and less than a minute later, someone knocked on their door.

"Mom, no!" Liru tried to run to her but Borj held him in a bear hug.

"It's alright, baby. You stay there." Agra stood up from her chair, feeling the wooden floor turn into a tar pit.
