Those who practiced ancestral magic believed and trusted in those of the great beyond. The problem with that trust was that many who called the other side home were less than honest and held a grudge that eternity couldn't lessen. Mary-Alice Claire was one of those who refused to let go of the past. Everything that had been happened to her and been due to her free will, if she had left him in his magical slumber than she would have had a normal life living under the thumb of Klaus like every other witch of the city.
The covens still held a grudge against Mary-Alice for getting a vampire involved in witch business and he was sure her family had suffered for generations. Dowager Fauline's house had been where she had spend the last half of her life and she was still rather miffed about never being able to leave blaming Kol when he had no way to free her when he himself has been imprisoned in his own mind. Mary-Alice wasn't one to let anything go and now that Davina had taken up the role as Regent things were getting worse for him.
There were many on this side which were not a fan of him and not ready to allow him to return. Never had he loved anyone the way he loved Davina and she wasn't ready to let he go, everything she did was to bring him back and he was beginning to believe he wasn't worth it. Kol felt like Prometheus being punished everyday sometimes even being killed only to return to life the next day to continue the cycle.
"Do you believe she really has a chance in returning you to life? It was a great speech she gave to insure her power but we both know it will never be the time of the witches as long as she seeks to bring you back. The Mikaelson family will always have a hold on her especially if you return as you once were. The witches will turn on her and the ancestors will reject her." Turning he looked at Mary-Alice who looked the same as she always did the once kind light in her having turned vicious.
The problem was that Kol knew she was right, bringing him back would do nothing but complicate Davina's life. Vampires and witches weren't meant to co-exist in peace no matter how hard he had tried. Add in the fact that Dahlia was in New Orleans and that change everything. Being a witch herself there was no way the covens of New Orleans would side against her, Davina wouldn't be able to side against her until she became a threat to the covens themselves and Klaus was no one to accept that. The moment Klaus made a move on Davina would be the moment he started a war he would never be ready for.
"I believe Davina will never give up on what she wants and never leave a friend behind. New Orleans is only going to get worse, we both know that Mary-Alice. Dahlia killed one Regent to send a message do you believe she'll stop there? She won't give up until she has what she wants and my family won't stop fighting her until they she'd dead or this city is burned to the ground. You can hate me but you know I speak the truth, without the ancestors behind her this city will fall and the covens will be destroyed." When viewing things from the other side he could see things far more clearly than he ever did while alive. Dahlia had power the witches of this city had never seen before, it was old world and primal something few knew about and less than that had ever seen.
Mary-Alice approached him with fire in her eyes but before she reached him someone appeared behind her and with a snap broke her neck and allowed her to drop to the ground. His eyes grew wide as they moved up to meet a pair of eyes he hadn't seen since Mystic Falls. "Mother?" She had died as a vampire so how she was before him know he didn't know. However as he thought about it her true body had been consecrated as a witch and she would also be a part of the New Orleans ancestors.
"Kol, we haven't much time." The desperation in her voice spoke volumes and though she hadn't mentored him or been the one to teach him magic he had always respected her and her skills as a witch. Stepping over Mary-Alice body he took the hand his mother offered him have no idea what was about to happen.
