Summary: Discussing how to deal with the nightmare-memories and revealing long-kept secrets.

Regardless of how frightened she may have been the day before when she had the run-in with Zarkin Frood, the fact remained that he had given her valuable information about these 'nightmares' that she could use to get her and her family somewhere further along in solving the entire mystery. She and Eli might not be on the best terms at the moment, but that didn't rightly matter because he would put it aside if it meant working on something intellectual—she knew him well enough for that. And maybe none of that really mattered anymore because right now this was what was most important: compiling what they already knew and finding out what else they needed to figure out to solve this matter once and for all.

Eli's part was essential though, because of his access at the Ministry, so she would need his help. She needed to find out what he had already researched on this matter anyhow and amass it with her own knowledge so that they could converge on the same road and stop with all this 'need to know' shite because she had a family to protect and she didn't have time to wait around on her husband and his ideals of when he thought he was ready to let her in on his secrets. This was one that she wasn't going to wait on, whether he was okay with it or not, he would just have to deal with that.

Samara walked into his study, where he always was, with Argus close at hand, and dropped the few books and newspapers she had pulled onto the other end of his desk by the open seat. "Pandora Zurlo," she said simply as she sat herself down in the seat and greeted the golden retriever who walked over to her as she had entered the room.

Samara hated the idea, but she knew that they had to tell him something, now that he had skewed ideas of what was going on. And it wasn't like he didn't know that Samara had been jumpy for the past week anyway, so it was about time they explained something to him, but she still wanted to protect him from it all.

"Eli, you've got to be careful how you explain this to him. He may be intelligent enough to understand it, but he still doesn't need to know all the details. He's just a child and deserves the chance to act like one while he's got the time. Which means there is nothing he can do besides let us do what we are are already doing." Samara gave him that 'mother knows best' look she'd perfected over the past five years after spending all her time at home with their son. She knew that Eli was a good father, but that didn't change the fact that he saw himself in Jason and could sometimes consider the boy to be far older than he really was.

Samara pulled out her wand and cast the spell that projected her voice into whatever room her son was in, rather than yell across the house. "Jase, will you come to your father's study for a moment please? We'd like to talk to you." When Jason made his way into the study he walked straight toward Samara who picked him up automatically and set him in her lap. He looked at both his parents expectantly.
