Howl had been busier then he ever had been in his long life. He’d traveled further than he’d ever thought to, all in search for a way to put a stop to Maleficent. The Fairy inched closer and closer to achieving control of the town. He was relieved for the natural light in the town’s residents that kept her at bay. He’d spent too much time cooped up in his home and was driving Sophie crazy with his muttering so he took his books and moved outside of the apothecary. He’d set up a couple of tables out here not only for this purpose but for others to come and have a moment of peace. He was lost to the world as he poured over the magical book on the table. He could be very focused when he wanted to be. 

              DAYS LIKE THIS HAD BECOME  a  rare  occurrance  for  the  past  two  months ,  days  in  which  aurora  would  leave  home  for  the  sake  of  existing  for  a  moment .  it  always  left  a  guilty ,  heavy  feeling  in  her  heart ;  after  all ,  philip  was  still  sleeping  and  while  her  friends  and  his  brothers  urged  her  to  take  care  of  herself ,  it  was  hard  to  do  so  without  worrying .  today ,  kit  had  offered  to  stay  with  philip  so  here  she  was :  strolling  around  town ,  breathing  in  the  winter  air  while  searching  for  answers .  eventually ,  her  walk  led  her  to  the  apothecary .  she'd  passed  by  the  shop  a  couple  of  times  in  the  past ,  always  curious  yet  hesitant  to  step  in .  this  time ,  however ,  there  was  a  man  sitting  outside ,  and  she  could  swear  there  was  something  peculiar  about  him . 

            with  small  steps ,  the  blonde  approached  the  stranger ,  hands  clasped  together  in  front  of  her  body .  ❛ excuse  me ,  sir ...  are  you  the  wizard  pendragon ? ❜  a  pause ,  violet  eyes  glancing  around  for  a  brief  moment  before  setting  on  him  again .  ❛  i'm  terribly  sorry ,  you  seem  busy  but  i  was  hoping  we  could  talk .  it's  my  husband ,  he's  not-- ...  he's  been  cursed ,  and  i  don't  know  how  to  help  him . ❜

Sadness. Despair. Anguish. He sensed it before the young woman appeared before him. She radiated her feelings as she went and he had to look up when she was close enough. If he hd a heart, it would ache, but it still made him feel for her nonetheless. This was the wife of the Prince Maleficent had cursed. The Princess she’d been chasing down had just been a character in a story to him but now she was here and he wasn’t sure he’d e able to help her.

“I am. Call me Howl, please.” He motioned for the chair across from him to offer her the seat. He closed the tome he was reading and let his mind start turning in search of an answer. “Yes, I’ve heard of it. I truly am sorry that you are going through this. Maleficent can be quite cruel. She’s a fearsome adversary.” 

        ❛ HOWL ,  OF COURSE .  I'M AURORA . ❜  though  a  part  of  her  felt  as  though  he  might  already  know  that .  it  seemed  to  be  a  common  thing  amongst  people  who  dabbled  in  magic  to  know  a  little  bit  of  everything  at  the  very  least ;  she  wouldn't  be  surprised  if  the  wizard  knew  more  about  her  than  aurora  herself .  taking  the  seat  as  it  was  offered ,  the  princess  held  her  posture  gracefully ,  dutiful .  she  had  always  been  rather  good  at  putting  away  her  feelings  for  a  moment  for  the  sake  of  doing  the  right  thing ,  of  finding  a  solution  and  this  time ,  it  was  even  more  important .  philip  was  counting  on  her .

       ❛ i  appreciate  the  sentiment ,  but  don't  feel  for  us .  philip  and  i  both  knew  she  would  strike  eventually ,  we  were  just-- ...  we  got  comfortable ,  careless .  it's  my  fault . ❜  it  had  to  be ,  even  though  aurora  wasn't  sure  of  what  had  caused  the  fairy  to  feel  such  blind  hatred  towards  hers  and  philip's  families .  nevertheless ,  she'd  rather  take  the  blame  for  it  than  let  it  rest  on  her  beloved's  shoulders .  pressing  her  lips  together ,  she  nodded  as  howl  mentioned  how  fearsome  maleficent  could  be .  ❛ i  know ,  but  there  must  be  a  way .  i  don't  know  much  about  magic  nor  do  philip's  brothers  but  i  know  every  curse  can  be  broken ,  and  i'll  do  anything  to  make  that  happen . ❜  she  affirmed ,  determination  coating  her  words .  ❛ the  fairies  i  know  are  far  away  from  here  and  i  have  no  magic  of  my  own ,  but  there  must  be  something  we  can  do .  she  must  have  weakness  or  a  loophole  in  her  magic .  anything . ❜
