“I can’t decide if I want to kiss you, hex you, or tie you to the altar and see which happens first.”

Rowena sat cross-legged in the circle of salt and ink, an open grimoire on her lap, its parchment edges curling with age. The dormitory's lanterns were long extinguished, but a trio of rune-lit candles floated silently above her head, their flames flickering with a restless, silvery sheen.
“This should be harmless,” she muttered to herself, narrowing her eyes as she traced the glyphs again. “Light-binding. Visual tracing. No summoning. Just... observation.”
She tapped her finger against the diagram in the grimoire, lips pursed in thought.
“I just want to see between places. That’s all.”
With a confident breath, she extended her palm and spoke the spell aloud—clear, fluid, old syllables that hummed like pressure behind her teeth.
The candles flared. Her skin prickled. A shimmer passed over the circle, like heat off stone—but colder, tinged with violet and something else. Something vast and feathered. The air tasted like metal and dream.
Rowena frowned. That wasn’t supposed to happen.
She leaned forward, peering into the sigil as it bled into layers only she could now see. Shapes unfolded, impossible and curling at the edges of reality. Threads of light—and shadow—moved, stirred.
Then—
A whisper.
Soft. Intimate. Too close.
It wasn’t part of the spell.
Her head jerked up, heart thudding.
“...Who’s there?”
Silence.
The flame nearest her flickered again, dancing like it was being breathed on. Her breath caught. That voice hadn’t been cruel. Or cold. It had been… curious.
It had said her name.
Her name, in a voice like sunlight through cathedral glass and teeth behind it.
Rowena stood slowly, gaze pinned to the now-silent sigil. Her fingers trembled as she reached out and traced the air where the whisper had landed.
Somewhere far below the school—beneath the stone and history and wards—something had heard her.
And something had answered.
