Jaenell was the more probable culprit, however. Perhaps she had managed to catch a glimpse of the Traitor in Red Square after all, and had become suspicious of a potential rival for the prize of the Alu Sage. Poisoning Jaenell would be ridiculously easy. The woman was a captive in her own home, indefinitely, but the law enforcement of Ankanas relied too heavily on spells and enchantments to secure their prisoner, often overlooking more mundane methods of escape, suicide, or assassination.

For a moment, she was puzzled. Then she realized that the perpetrator must be using a black mirror, a new innovation which the Traitor hadn't yet tried. Focusing the full force of her power on the rippling image, it resolved into a recognizable silhouette: the bothersome Jaenell. Or it could possibly be the younger Witch, Isthare. The two relatives looked so similar. Not that the difference was terribly important; the Traitor had already decided that both aunt and niece must eventually die.

Immediately, the Traitor arrayed her relics at strategic points on the edge of the pool of not-quite-ink. She couldn't afford to lose the open connection to the spy. Ah, yes, there it was, the whiff of very subtle witchcraft, probing, prying. An impressive feat, to have gotten this far; what a shame such potential had to be destroyed. Following the magic to its caster, the Traitor expected the face of the woman to be revealed by the scrying pool. Yet all she saw was a dark, shifting shadow.

The Traitor paused in her daily routine; someone or something, most likely another Witch, was sniffing around the outside edges of her shields! Well, that was fine. There were double and triple layers of protection surrounding her memories, and when she had first started acquiring her more... notorious... relics, she'd created a false recollection of herself innocuously at home to play if this ever came to pass. However, the threat must be isolated, traced back to its source, and eliminated.

"That vision is considerably clearer than a mere silhouette. Your skill with this method is unsurpassed," he praised her." "It just takes practice and patience," Isthare said, pleased anyway. "I've started on the list of High Mistresses, but it's slow going, since so many of them have alarms of a sort to alert them if anyone is poking around with their minds. If I were to be caught by an innocent Dark Sister, it would mean loss of face; if I were detected by the Traitor, it would be death."
