Finally we get to bag a rich person. Why are we hunting him again? We found the anchor, right? I'm confused as to the goal.
We still don't know what Phase Two of his plan is, though. Thea interrupted him before he could explain it to Tim and Lei. [https://www.widdershinscomi...](https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/july-27th-2021 "https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/july-27th-2021")
I thought the problem was he wanted to open a new anchor on their side of the word (with explosives, I assume). Given the power of anchors, I bet that would cause a dangerous disruption in the natural balance, equivalent to tilting the magnetic field or something.
Leading to a shift of power roughly analogous to the banking shift from London to New York over WW2? At least, if it works. :D
Hm. I would be more concerned about possible cataclismic events than about global politics, although certainly "owning" an anchor would change things in the board for anyone.
I really think he intends to teleport it out of its place to somewhere more convivial than the bottom of the sea and make Thea its witch. That would likely still mess with the balance of the other anchors.
Of course, that's if the anchor lets him.
What hasn't Verity done?
sought a diplomatic solution built on trust and honesty?
Admit Wrongdoing?
Laser Tag ?
I like how that uncertainty implies Widdershins has a laser tag arena.
You can't prove that it doesn't.
True...
Just having local widdershins wizards getting bored and just magic lazer tag.
Honesty, in combination with Verity? Truly?
Let someone else take full credit?
When one loses an apprentice, quickly nab another member of their family to take their place.
To be fair, he's really good at this.
When you ask to see the devil, he eventually answers.
Or in this case, she.
I love that Lei seems to think she's being stealthy by simply crouching down on an open staircase in full view of the guards.

Hence Verity hiding the way she does and not attracting suspicion?
"how dare she involves him HOW DARREEES"
Funny thought. He also knows what's going on and wants to go home. What if he intentionally involved her this time?
My respect for Lei grew immensely, when she asked herself what Harry would do.
I just noticed that Verity has found herself a magician. Assisting her.
"What would Harriet Barber do?" indeed …
Mā de - what is she up to now?
