Adeline,
These are for you. Notes on their uses are found within. The Faber is a hearsay translation of a manuscript written around the year 1500, and contains thoughtful commentary on languages of magic. If you should choose to read it, it is advised that you bear in mind that you have personally witnessed more successful magic, in greater variety, than likely have this anonymous author and Germaine Faber himself. The forms within we nevertheless found useful for wards of protection. We have marked all relevant pages.
Do not be dissuaded by the profusion of Christian terminology, and do not be taken in by the hellfire seriousness of the tone. Magic is risky, but paradoxically it seems to answer also a sense of play and whimsy. We selected Faber for the forms, and because it is in English. Eddie and Eli know you have our permission to browse our library; we only ask that, under current circumstances, the texts do not leave the premises.
Felix & Avery
P.S. Please help yourself to the biscuits in the tin, or scatter them for the chickens out back, thank you.
Beneath the note was a tightly rolled leather kit very like the ones carried by the twins, Aurelia, and Liessel, containing an assortment of miniaturized containers and equipment. Inside of it, pinned to one of the pouches, was a small dragonfly pin made of brass, clearly designed to sit on or under a lapel, or on a hat. Folded within its pin hollow were instructions for the use of it.
