Library [11/21]

George was - well, he wasn't really doing much.

He'd finished the library chores fast enough but then there weren't much else to catch his interest. So he was tossin' a ball around and rather wishin' Beka were still a dog so she'd go chasin' after it and bring it back t'him.

"Amulets?" Karla asked, far more interested in that than baby books. "I make a contraceptive brew every morning, but I've never heard of an amulet that does the same thing. How does that work?"

She followed him into the stacks, looking at all the different books about children. Why did there have to be so many? "Witches aren't very fertile," she explained while idly glancing at titles. "Most of the short-lived witches have only one child, two at the most, so no younger siblings and my only cousin is older than me. And my mother gave the members of her Court leave when they had a child, so by the time they came back, the babies were usually at least toddling around. I only ever saw a really little baby once."

And had dropped her. But details.
