An idea was starting to form in Hathor's mind. Which would explain both the double presence and the odd way in which Heru behaved. She didn't like that idea.
But she did smile back at him. "As you say so, I shall not fear. What is her name?" Softly, "and if she hid it... the spell. Do you know how it used to look, so that if we find it, we may know it?" Or what it felt like, although she had a strong suspicion that it was simply in writing. There had been more involved ways to store spells to be cast... but few of them survived, anymore, and none of them would have been easy to hide. "When did she slip away?" Gentle tone. Coaxing questions. The questions would have been much fewer if it were not for the other presence.
She almost stopped to ask him about it, right then. But he did not seem to be concerned with it--
Maybe it was just a coincidence that they seemed to be growing closer to it.
