--- Quote from: 123456789blaaa on December 15, 2012, 07:25:44 AM ---Can I get a quote on Mab lulling their demon halves to sleep (I don't have my books with me)? I do remember something like that but I'd like to see the exact wording.

--- Quote from: Chapter 15 of Changes ---I looked up at my godmother. Mister was sprawled in her lap on his back, luxuriating as she traced her long nails over his chest and tummy. His purr throbbed continuously through the room. "What did you do to them?"

"I lulled their predator spirit to sleep," she said calmly. "Poor lambs. They didn't realize how much strength they drew from it. Mayhap this will prove a useful lesson."

I frowned at that. "You mean . . . the vampire part of them?"

"Of course."

I sat there for a moment, stunned.

If the vampire infection within half vampires like Susan and Martin could be enchanted to sleep, then it was presumably possible to do other things to it as well. Suppress it, maybe permanently.

It might even be possible to destroy it.

EDIT: Damn ninjas.

Cenphx:
The lulling to sleep part happens earlier in Changes when he finds Lea in his apartment. In the hardback edition its on page 107. Its chapter 15. What she actually says is that she lulls their predator spirit to sleep.

wizard nelson:
sooo...? yea number up some logical holes in my theory... its sound, if only a theory :P

Are we going to see more of Maggie and is she a witch?
We WILL see more of Maggie and (sing-song voice) I’m not gonna tell yooooou.  But yeah, she’s definitely going to be a part of what’s going on.
 that singsong thing makes me think maggie ain't run of the mill 'witch'. its were this all originated btw

Cenphx:
I find it slightly disturbing that 3 of us nearly immediately posted the exact page and quotation of a random thing from the books at 12:30 on Friday night.

madness:
I am with Nelson on this one (mostly).

The curse killed the vampire curse/spirit/demon/whatever that was in all of the vampires (including the half vampires).

It started with the young vampires and worked its way up to the Red King.  It wasn't a matter of the Red King being killed and thus all of his coven dying instantly - the curse was like a chain reaction that ran through the entire species from youngest to oldest.

I have no idea if the child of a half-vampire would have any connection to the predator spirit or not.  White Court vampires (like Inari) have a connection to the hunger spirit even before they kill someone and cement the bond.  It was never made clear what happened when Inari had sex with someone she loved before her first kill and thus avoided becoming a full WCV.
