Re: Friends, Enemies, and Mrs. Bently...
'Yes. That was our trail... I wouldn't worry about the liver, the owner won't miss it...' Penny noted cryptically. 'You didn't find a dead man in a haberdasher's, did you? Never mind.' She'd slain a demon, she recalled in awe. The war was turning against the forces of darkness now.
'Hecate?' Penny frowned in serious reconsideration. 'We were aware that Emma Bently worshipped Hecate, but I thought it only for magical power, as witches do... We already have Belial and the Hand of Baal on our hands, but if the Grand Coven get involved, that would complicate matters immensely.' she worried. The witches might even be useful allies, but she chose not to suggest this in front of Simon. Her purgative hex-bag lay heavily in her purse.
After everything, she could not care much for a ghoul. It would have to wait. There was too much going on, too many plots and players, to much to do.
'Yes, a head.' Penny answered brightly, with a levity not suited to the darkness of the matter. She was being flippant, confident, trying to keep her fears quelled. 'Emma Bently's. Belial cut it off and sent to me by way of apology for her attempt to kill Kate Piper and I the other day. Mr Bently himself left it at our hotel yesterday. A macabre gift, certainly. Unfortunately, it appears that she knew the location of the Ring of Solomon by which we might stop Belial. Thus, we are to reassemble, resurrect, and interrogate her – a frightfully bad idea, I know, but it has been recommended by Miss Green, the angel Castiel, and Death himself. He gave us Emma Bently's soul in the year 2013.'
'All that remains is to locate the rest of her body. Miss Green has a spell for this, but requires the head.' Penny sighed, so weary. 'I suppose we should count ourselves lucky that Belial is sending me severed heads, though I would've preferred flowers.'
'You asked if we are hunting big game – we are. The biggest: Belial, the Prince of Darkness.'
OOC: Kate, Kitty, similar names.
The Grand Coven is a Season 10 thing, but it's exactly what it sounds like, a governing body of witches.
