OLIVIA MIKAELSON FOUND HERSELF IN NEW ORLEANS for the past few weeks helping her siblings with whatever problem they got themselves in seeing as they got the French Quarter back. Olivia sat on the couch next to Hayley as Elijah focused on the sketches Davina drew about Celeste—his witch lover from the past who is very much dead.

"The Italians call them strega. The Yoruba of West Africa call them aje, meaning mother. Where my mother was from, they called them haxa, and here we call them witch." Elijah explained the history to Hayley, "Over the centuries, vampires have fought them and fought beside them, bedded them and burned them. Whether adversary or ally, they have been a force to be reckoned with. Their ancestral magic anchors this city. There's never been one all-powerful witch until Davina."

"Who is now tucked in safe and sound down the hall under my protection." Klaus walked in as he looked down at the table where the drawings of Celeste were extended, "Your Celeste was quite beautiful and a portent of evil, according to our volatile artist in residence."

"Yes. Perhaps Davina's mistaken what she calls evil for power. Celeste was certainly very powerful in her day." Elijah nodded, taking a seat.

"But she's been dead for over two hundred years. Why all these sketches?" Olivia questioned, looking at Elijah.

"Why does any witch do anything?"

Meanwhile upstairs, Marcel walked inside the room with a tray of food for Davina, once the young witch noticed his arrival she screamed and used her magic to throw him at the wall. "Go away!"

"Come on. You got to be starving. You haven't eaten since—-"

"Since your best friend killed my best friend?" Davina questioned, seeing as Tim died in the hands of Klaus.

"Davina, I'm sorry about what happened to this kid, Tim." Marcel softly spoke to the witch.

"I'm sorry you don't hate Klaus for what he did or want to make him pay." Davina grits her teeth, hating that he's working with the hybrid.

"He'll pay for what he did one way or the other, but right now, I just want to make peace with you." Marcel reasoned with her.

"Why? So we can be one big happy frankenstein family?" Davina grew angrier by the second using her magic once again to throw a vase to the wall, breaking it.

The Original siblings and Hayley heard the vase break causing Hayley to wince at the noise. Klaus huffed, "Well, that's going well."

"If you were trying to win Davina's trust, maybe poisoning her one true love was not the most splendid idea." Olivia narrowed her eyes at her twin.

"Sister, what happened to Stefan?" Klaus retorted, causing Olivia to send a glare his way. When the female hybrid arrived in New Orleans they knew something went wrong and something indeed go wrong. Stefan left Mystic Falls to who knows where.
