Merlin and Baba Yaga had had a brief chat about this turn of events.
"I must admit, I'm almost let down. This is something of an anti-climax," Merlin said.
"Oh? What do you mean dear?" Baba Yaga asked.
"Lilith had just put on a display that any act of defiance by Circe would be Circe signing her own death warrant. And any challenge by you would be just as fatal for you. We'd all been terrified of what Lilith would do if she 'let herself go'. And yet, here we are, you'e managed to depower Lilith to where Kellie can give her a good spanking and keep her in line."
"I think Lilith never expected me to be foolish enough to even try and how it worked to begin with. But we can't keep them like this forever, Jack would not be happy. Remember, he was groomed to replace Morgan Le Fay in the balance, and he shall. And Circe's devoted are not mindlessly beasts who will brainlessly graze in the meantime."
"Should have known it wouldn't be that easy. Still, best to enjoy this while we can. "
"Maybe the two of them can be playing patty-cake before they need to be restored..."
