On Reflection

by flowerdeluce

Almost a quarter of a century has passed since the Revival of English Magic, and the King’s Letters remain a mystery to the magical societies set about translating them. London’s first daguerreotype studio has opened in Regent-street. Will this impressive invention – described as “a mirror with memory” – help the societies decipher John Uskglass’ second prophecy or will it cause more trouble than it’s worth?

The Wives of Vinculus

by Tennyson

“So Childermass set spies to follow Vinculus and the first and most surprising discovery they made was that Vinculus was married. Indeed he was a great deal more married than most people. His wives were five in number and they were scattered throughout the various parishes of London and the surrounding towns and villages. The eldest was forty-five and the youngest fifteen and each was entirely ignorant of the existence of the other four. Childermass contrived to meet with each of them in turn. To two of them he appeared in the character of the unlikely milliner; to another he presented himself as a customs officer; for the benefit of the fourth he became a drunken, gambling rogue; and he told the fifth that, though he appeared to the world to be a servant of the great Mr Norrell of Hanover-square, he was in secret a magician himself. Two tried to rob him; one said she would tell him everything he wanted to know as long as he paid for her gin; one tried to make him go with her to a Methodist prayer meeting; and the fifth, much to everyone’s surprize, fell in love with him.” - Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, by Susanna Clarke, p. 205, pub. Bloomsbury, 2004
