The golden spring light was strong in The Orangery. The rays were distorted by the glass, old and imperfect and capable of throwing rainbows into unexpected corners. As Anna cooked and baked and cleaned down, she tried to take hold of her thoughts. The Prophets’ whispering was still in her ears, and the image of The Gate imprinted on the back of her eyelids every time she shut her eyes.

The discussion with her sisters about the antiquity of Woodcastle had released a flurry of memories about Calum that had been hidden away. The one on almost constant repeat was the image of him on that last night, hefting Ethan into his arms in the kitchen. “The lads have got this catering thing sorted…” A short trip to fetch a takeaway.

Takeaway. A word wider and deeper than she had ever imagined. Taken. Away. Why was this surfacing? Another distress flare flaming above her sea of grief.

She threw herself into the afternoon shift. The clattering of teacups and cutlery worked hard to drown out the sound of her thoughts, but it could not. She grew angry with herself for being so rattled. There again, a flickering at the edge of her mind, like lightning at the far edge of a storm. It was there, but she could not catch it.

She should trust herself. Emz was right. Their Strengths were freer, switched on, as evidenced that they had not been blindsided by the new visitor. It was not that she was rattled; rather, they were, she thought, on guard. Charlie’s own description of the Beacons showed that there was renewed energy radiating through the Wood. Future intruders might well pick up the message that the Way sisters left out for them and stay away.
