[Hadlin's Room]

Hadlin frowns, "Alright then." he reaches into another pocket on his robe, pulling out a wad of half-burnt sage, and begins the process of clearing energies out of the room with its smoke. Wait, when did it light up? Eh, nevermind.

After a long while, Hadlin will press a hand to his forehead and the forehead of the beetle. if the spirit is not willing, this will simply be wasted time. if it does work, then Hadlin and the fey will exchange very small parts of their soul, and become able to feel what the other feels through their connection to that piece, communicate telepathically, and share the magic of their essence.

f the fey is as powerful as The Lost One claims, then it may also result in subtle physical changes to Hadlin.

[Terry's Aparment]

The potion, in this instance, was properly crafted, with a single problem; Terry overcompensated on the female element of it, after her failure to produce results with Giacomo's second potion.

So Lucy will return to being a woman but... more. I'll let you define how.
