Owen tilted his head slightly, surprised Kennedy hadn’t heard anything about the curse, “So according to local history,” he began. “Back in the 17th century there were Sirens and humans, specifically to name the Thorntons, living here. Then new settlers moved, who brought with them the Coombs family. Viviana Coombs and Jonatan Thornton started some sort of fling, but it was cut short by his family. They didn’t agree with the relationship, as all good tales begin.” Owen smiled with a slight shoulder shrug before continuing. “So he moved on, got married to someone ‘more suitable’ but Viviana was angry. That he’d moved on so easily and that her love was rejected, so she cast a curse. Hence why until the most recent generation the two families have hated each other ever since.” He concluded, apparently his history teacher had been wrong in telling him that he never paid attention.
“As for your Aunt – I wouldn’t know, until recently the curse has been very much a rumour, but something appears to have triggered,” he explained, a little more sadly. He can remember at school how they all used to laugh at the idea of a curse, and now here it was. Most of his school friends had left, but he wondered what they’d think if they knew it was apparently all true.
“You just like being taller, don’t you?” Owen asked with a grin. “Well tough luck.” He playfully stuck his tongue out at her.
Kennedy, 25, is an artistic girl with uncontrollable premonitions and a dark family history. She's arrived in Siren Cove in hopes of discovering the truths to her mother's mysteries and maybe some helpful magic while she's at it. In the mean time, she'll paint you something magical.
