When I found Kol he was sobbing. Davina's body had already been prepared to be consecrated in the earth, but he was sitting vigil with her for the night, and I do not think he had stopped crying since her the moment of her death. He held no shame to show his emotions, but when he sensed that I was stood behind him, Kol turned his head, blinked, then came to me where he sought out comfort in the only way he could. He wept in my arms as I held him, holding him gently and guiding him to sit with me as he gave his broken apologies, begging for forgiveness as I rubbed his back until he was completely exhausted.
Using magic I sent him to sleep for a moment so that I could look to Davina, pulling back the cloth in order to look at her. Now it was my turn to cry and sob, giving her my most heartfelt promises to bring her back, telling her that I was sorry I failed her and that I would not rest until she found her happy ending. With the last of my tears I gathered them up into a vial to use in my spell, whereby I purified her body in the druid way, and used magic to keep it from degrading over time so that her body would remain whole and untouched. Then with my tears, I poured them over a special jade that I had created and infused with my magic several months ago at my ancestors' direction. Now I knew why. Everything they did was to help me and the people I cared about, I should really give them more credit.
When my tears came into contact with the stone it began to glow a soft shade of evergreen, humming gently as I then placed it directly over Davina's heart. "What is that?" Kol had now awakened, calmer and more collected but no less grief stricken as he came to my side in order to see what I was doing.
"You spent most of your life creating dark objects with magic. Well…this is an object of my own, but it's infused with light magic." I explained to him quietly, letting him reach out and touch it but not remove it from Davina. "I call it a Soul-Gathering Jade. It will pull Davina's soul back together and heal it. Once enough time has passed and the last fragments of her shattered soul has been mended, we can bring her back to life." Kol looked at me quickly so I smiled and gripped the back of his neck in order to have him focus on me so that he could know that I was not lying. "You will be together again, Kol. You have my word."
"Why would you do this for us? For me? You know who I am and what I have done. To your people I am nothing more than a monster." He questioned me hoarsely but I only smiled further, and even laughed a little.
"Because Davina is clearly good for you and she is completely in love. I think that what you two share is a true bond, the eternal kind, and I do not want to see it broken. I love Davina, I should have been here for her but I wasn't, so I'm going to make sure I make it up to her. This jade will pull the pieces of her soul back together, and all the while she'll be at peace like a deep sleep. Next thing she'll know, she'll be waking up in your arms and you two can walk off into the sunset together." Completely in disbelief over my promise, Kol could barely manage to find the words to express his gratitude, overcome with emotion so I encouraged him to get some rest for the time being, because until Davina woke up again, he was going to have to learn how to face each day without her beside him.
I remained for her funeral, where the witch Vincent led the ceremony whilst Josh and Marcel stood with Kol and I in order to send Davina off into her peaceful slumber. Kol had since told me everything that I had missed, and I decided that I did not want to remain to see the end game. With my visions starting to come back to me, I knew that the prophecy that foretold the end of the Mikaelsons was still very much in play, and that their defeat would be at the hand of none other than Marcel Gerard, who was their family, friend and foe all in one. It was spiteful of me, but since they had been the reason Davina had lost her chance at immediate revival and had been subjected to the ancestors shattering her soul, I chose not to warn them about what was coming. They all deserved to suffer for a while for what they did, so this time I was not going to save them. They would all find peace in a chambre de chasse created by Freya anyway, so I did not worry for their lives. If it ended any other way, I would have saved Rebekah no matter what, then decided on whether or not I felt merciful towards the others.
If they had just waited a little longer, then I could have dealt with Lucien myself. After all, his spell had been completed with white oak just as Esther had done a thousand years ago. Had they just been a little more patient, played a little smarter and captured him rather than tried to kill him, I could have given them a weapon made from white oak myself which would have destroyed him completely. I blamed them for their impatience, and so I was prepared to let them face their own ends. Kol would also be alright, so once the funeral was over, I spoke to Marcel to give him a little advice as a druid, counselling him to do whatever he thought was right, but to remember that in the end, he must be willing to accept the consequences of his actions.
Leaving him in slight confusion over my ambiguous warning, I said goodbye to them all, wishing Josh well before I then left New Orleans. Everything had completely fallen apart since I had left, with Jackson dead, and many others alongside him, I could not bring myself to ever want to step foot in that city ever again. The final act I made out of goodwill was to revive Ansel from his slumber, waking him and then sending him directly to the bayou back where he belonged with a message to Hayley to tell her that her pack would be taken care of in her absence. In that final act, I viewed any ties other than friendship to be completely severed, choosing to return to my own life instead of worrying over their fates. If Hayley did not find a cure for them all in a few years, then perhaps I would lend a hand, but until then, I think the world could do without the immortal siblings, and I could continue my own life how I wanted.
