"So…." Asher started, "You're telling me the plan is to swap a priestess and add guards? You're betting the whole plan on Baron attacking Violet when she's asleep? What if he does it before the ceremony? What would you do?"
"No one is foolish enough to attack Violet, at least not when she's awake. You already know what she can do." Lila pointed out.
Yeah, they all knew that. Literally erasing one out of existence. Except that power was unmastered and, in the course of fighting back, she might as well delete the whole realm.
"I'm sure," Lila said with conviction. "That's when he'd attack. The Ascension of Death runs for an hour and in that window of opportunity, when Violet is unconscious and powerless, Baron would definitely not let it go."
"So while Violet is vulnerable, we just wait around for Baron to attack her?" Griffin frowned. "That sounds quite dumb to me, and I would rather Violet remain a stranger to the Fae than risk her life for this." He was seriously concerned.
