So you knew about this all along?
Yeah? Why are you so worked up?
I am worked up because this whole situation is unfair! You should have told me about the pendant earlier.
Really? Is it really your parents or did they just say they were your parents. Who even are your real parents?
My real parents are Jonathan and Jocelyn, but they died when I was little.
Didn't you know that Jocelyn has been alive this whole time?
No, someone would have told me! Why didn't anyone tell me she was alive?
Because my sister wanted you to be surprised. That's why she put this book in front of you. But no one else knows.
This is ridiculous! How could they keep something like this from me? And why didn't anyone tell me Jocelyn was alive?
Because they wanted you to discover it for yourself. That's why this book was left here, for you. They knew you'd find it eventually. And as for Jocelyn, she only recently decided to reveal herself to you.
Well, I guess I should go see her then. walks out of the library
Alright, let's head out. Jocelyn's waiting for us at the shipyard.
grabs her sword and heads towards the door Alright, lead the way.
Right, the shipyard isn't too far from here. We'll be there in a couple of minutes. Starts walking
quickly catches up to Bakether Thanks for helping me through all of this. I don't know what I would do without you.
yeah its all good. You seem more calm now than before. Is there anything else bothering you?
Actually, there is something else bothering me. I found a strange symbol while looking through some old books in the library.
It looks like a mix between a serpent and a demon mark.
A Serpent-Demon mark? Now that sounds like some ancient stuff. Any idea where you found it?
I found it in an ancient manuscript hidden between the pages of an old almanac. It had strange incantations and spells written in it.
Hmm, sounds like you've gotten yourself into some deep research. This symbol, is it linked to any specific creature or entity?
It's mentioned in the book as being associated with an ancient demon named Azazel.
Azazel? Sounds familiar. Wait a minute, isn't that the same demon tied to the Dark Art??
Yes, it is. I think I've stumbled upon something big here.
Well that sounds serious. Do you want me to join you while you research this further?
No, I think I need to tackle this one on my own. I appreciate the offer though.
Understandable. But remember, if you need help, you know where to find me. Good luck Clary!
Thank you, Bakether. I will definitely keep that in mind.
