"How do you feel about exploring caves?. This house has two cellars one that is just beneath the house and one that is a large cavern. The entrance is in the graveyard. We found the book there many years ago. Are you up to taking a look?" Aisling knows she can portal them  in if no one is around. Not knowing if the entrance is still passable or not. Gigi giggles and tells them . 

"let's go , we do not just command the water you know. The father has only taken my ability to call men not the other powers. Xiangin is the same she has just refused to use them out of fear. " Aisling can tell that Gigi is being sarcastic towards her granddaughter because she is hurt that she is ashamed of being a siren. Hopefully her time with Gigi will give Xiangin the confidence in herself to know she is a good person and it's ok to use your gifts for good. They walk the rest of the way in silence Xiangin pouting because of Gigi's comments. At the top of the mountain they are at the graveyard. It hasn't changed any since they were here last. Aisling points to the area where the bushes hide the caverns entrance. Gigi slightly moved her hand and the bushes not only parted but the cavern opens. Walking into the cavern they feel the coldness and it's hard to breathe. Gigi closes the entrance not wanting anyone to follow them. Aisling flicks her wrist and the cavern is illuminated. This cavern has a lot of quartz in its walls so when Aisling  lites it up the quartz glows making it seem almost like daylight inside the darkness. Aisling sees the stone coffin that the book was in. 

" there that the stone that at one time had the book, it's rather large could the horn be inside as well?"  Going over to it the three lift the heavy lid. Inside is the fake book , but also treasures from various time periods. This was the source of Macha's wealth. Gigi picks up a box from inside. Opening it there is a clear sphere. Taking it from the box and holding it to the light. They can see that it's a memory crystal. Like the one Aisling was given . Gigi turns to Aisling and tells her. 

" If we give this to Crystal she will be able to read the memories that was placed here. In fact as Macha's descendant this all belongs to her. Can you place a portal around it and send it to the house?" Aisling thinks a moment they have tried to keep all things magical mostly at the cabin. She opens a portal to the house and calls Maureen. 

they take item by item Maureen holds each piece to do a reading on it. When she touches the sphere she gets a jolt. Looking at Aisling she tells her. 

" this is the memory of Morrigan's human love. The one that started our line. It's similar to that of the sisters we sent you back in time  to fix. Except that Macha coveted the man who had no feeling for her. He never even acknowledged her. She wanted to make him immorta, only to chain him to her.  She wanted whatever belonged to Morrigan. She tried many tricks to get his attention but he had eyes only for Morrigan. In her jealousy she caused the death of the man leaving Morrigan alone and pregnant. The father was furious at Macha and banished her to be human. Morrigan lived as a human for one lifetime to raise her son. From him we were born. During that lifetime Morrigan fell in love with Uktena. The father sent him to her to have her help him . The woman he loved was in danger and she needed Morrigan's help. That is where the memory ends. We have clues now as to how they got together. This is the only piece that is magical. The rest is safe to be moved. We should still do a cleanse on everything here to be safe. Where do you want to take it to?" Maureen asks Aisling. 

"I'm not sure, if we send it to the cabin then if  it goes to the wrong time and space it could alert Macha to the cabin. If it does everything will be undone. If we just take it to the house and something is cursed then we put the family in danger. " Aisling looks perplexed. Xiangin looks at them and just says. 

"why don't we leave it here for now and after the cleansing Crystal can decide. It is hers so she should decide." Aisling starts to laugh. 

"I have been so used to just making decisions that I forget sometimes that it's not just up to me. Thanks for reminding me Xiangin." Aisling hugs her sister-in law. Gigi looks on confused . Seeing her look Maureen takes her hand and whispers to Gigi . 

"Aisling has had to make decisions since she was a child for herself and her siblings. She is the youngest but also the strongest. Most looking at her now think she had an easy life. They would be mistaken. She was unwanted and abused but she still kept her loving heart." Maureen looks at Gigi showing her the sadness in her eyes for Aisling's childhood. Gigi nods in acknowledgement. 

"She is an alpha with that comes great responsibility, she is a rare person. There are very few in both the mortal and immortal world that would be so. I know I Wielded power without question and commanded respect. No one would dare to question a single decision. She on the other hand allows others freedom and lovingly embraces them. I wonder if I had felt compassion if things would have been different. If Macha had felt love and not jealousy what the difference would have been. " 

Maureen sighs if only. 

Maureen goes back to the house to wait for the the children to get home while the others walk deeper into the cavern. 

Gigi stops mid step when she hears water  dripping. Listening closely she motions for them to follow. The narrow passage opens into a larger room. There is an underground pool in the cavern. There in the center of the pool is a metal chest . The chest is entrusted with clear crystals and stones. Gigi tries to pull the chest to her but it is protected by a field. Aisling tries but it will not move. The women notice a shadow coming at them. It takes hold of Gigi by the neck trying to stop her from getting the chest. Aisling starts to chant a spell to release her. When the spell hits the shadow a man appears. Aisling knows him it's the caretaker from before. He sees her and his eyes grow big in surprise. 

" how are you here? Why have you not changed?" He asks his voice horse and raspy. Aisling notices that he has deep scars on his neck. 

" what happened why are you here? How did this happen?" Aisling asks him. 

"The witch she became crazy after her two sons died. She hid out here letting everyone believe that she died. She was cursed after they died. Her skin became like wood and scary things would grow where ever she walked. She trapped me here in limbo as my punishment for not protecting her secrets from others . She blamed me for her sons deaths. I am forced to protect this chest till someone of her direct line comes to claim it. I was trying to get the girl's attention the other day. Hoping she would see me and come. I'm tired and would like to move on but I cannot until then. " the man tells her with pleading eyes. 

"surely you have seen others of her line around?" Aisling knows that Dean's sister still owns a number of properties and still lives close by. 

" yes but they have no magical power. Only one with magical power can release me. She said that her there is only one that can undo the curse. Only if she comes can I be free. Can you bring her to me so I can be free. " 

Aisling knows they have no choice but to bring Crystal to him. , that does not mean she will need to be alone. Aisling agrees and the three ho back to the house to wait for the others to get home .
