"He could have easily did something; he had plenty of time before anyone realized that it was him," Phoenix said. "He might have planned something just in case."

Shayla came up, having caught the tail end of the conversation. "Grayston's ghost still givin' ya troubles?"
"It concerns me, sure, but it doesn't offend or upset me." Kendall said. "I know there are reasons."

"Like use his magic try to prevent you from having another child?" asked Delfina, "I wouldn't put it past him to do such a thing."

Ebony only looked down at her own can of fuel, having suddenly lost her appetite.

"And it wouldn't be the first time anyone's been affected by his residual magic," Phoenix said. "I had to pull some from Ebony when she brought me the spellbooks."

"That's true because I remember that," nodded Delfina, "There could possibly be some residual magic left over even after I banished him. Maybe that's preventing the infertility."

Kendall quietly cleaned up after the twins and Gryffin, and took the empty vessels back to the kitchen, knowing that until the child was born, Ebony would be enduring more than a few days like this.
Shayla cocked her head, and cleared her throat a little. "G'Morning."

Phoenix blinked and turned. "Oh sorry, Morning Shayla."

Delfina looked up. She smiled, "Morning, Shayla. Sorry, got too caught up in this conversation."
*****
Ebony just dragged herself to the living room and collapsed on the couch cushions, the boys following her.

Kendall put some quiet music on at low volume, and settled down in the living room to work from home for the present.
"That's OK." Shayla smiled. "Didn't mean to be a buttinski, but is Grayston's little ghost being a pain in the butt again?"

"He might have left something behind," Phoenix said. "That might be why I can't become term."

"It's a possibility," said Delfina, then she paused for a minute, "What if there's a way to find it and get rid of it?"
*****
Ebony covered herself with one of the extra throw blankets and then started to cry.
The three boys watched her closely.

"I don't know," Phoenix said. "I've scanned myself over and I've hadn't sensed anything, no one else has really tried yet."

Delfina paused for a moment, looked up at Shayla, then back at Phoenix. "What about me and Shayla? Let us try?"

"It might take some sifting through." Shayla pursed the corners of her mouth. "Could be that he left something deliberate beforehand, like a trap that he could spring at any time, preset, except that it wasn't triggered until AFTER you conceived the baby for some reason. Then, it'd be a matter of finding the signature and working back from it."
Kendall moved in closer to Ebony, giving her all the support he could muster.

Delfina nodded in agreement to what Shayla said, "What do you think, Phoenix?"
*****
Ebony just continued to cry silently. "Stupid hormones..." she muttered bitterly.
