"The Plan…Ah, The Plan…" Chrysippus sighed, his facial expression melting into one of love. "The plan is something Maggie and I developed so you would be united with your sisters, when the time came for Maggie to relinquish her seat to the next Magna Mater."
"Whoa! Slow down! Stop! Reverse! What on earth are you talking about?" Marie interjected, her eyes wide with confusion.
"What do you mean "' What are you taking about?'" asked Chrysippus quizzically.
"Who is Maggie? What is the Magna Mater? Why is she relinquishing her seat? And who, exactly, are my sisters? Marie asked, throwing her hands into the air in a gesture of helpless confusion.
"Have you not read The Scroll?" Chrysippus asked, one eyebrow shooting upward rapidly.
"Of course I have, but there was no mention of Maggie, or Magna Mater, or seat relinquishing, or any of that."
