Meghan jaunted out of the school and retrieved a note from Juliska Blackwell, which included directions on how to locate her. She followed the map to the ocean’s shore, where a few hundred yards out an island of rock jutted out of the water; a fort had been forged into the rock. Meghan had to walk down a gravel road, which was lined with spike-like rocks, in order to reach the entrance. Ocean waves crashed over the rocks, splashing her. Juliska’s private Balaton guarded the entrance.

“What’s your business?” one of them asked in a gruff voice. He kept his gaze straight forward, not looking at her. The second guard’s eyes grazed down at her. He nudged his partner.

“Jenner, its okay, it’s the girl.” The other one darted his eyes, curiously, then opened the gate.

“You may enter. Banon Blackwell has alerted us to your possible visit.”

“Thanks,” said Meghan, curtsying her way through, gratified. Juliska had told them to expect her! Any insecurity Meghan had had about her unannounced visit vaporized into the mists of the ocean.

A woman dressed in business attire greeted Meghan at a stone door and led her inside. Before Meghan could make her request to see Juliska, another ornate stone door swung open; Juliska Blackwell elegantly strode into the room. She wasn’t dressed in her normal one piece long-jacket, but instead, a long sleeved tunic, which was form fitted down to her hips then flared slightly; it was a silky, crimson color.

“Meghan. I’m so pleased you came. Join me on the roof top,” she said. Meghan followed Juliska up a stone stairwell to an outside room. The floor they walked on was carved out of the rock. Juliska led them to the opposite corner, where a stone overhang could shield them from the sun.

“Please, sit,” insisted Juliska. Meghan did as she was told, sitting across from the Banon. A table separated them and before Meghan could speak, the same woman who had helped Meghan into the fort entered with a tray of food.

“Your timing could not have been more perfect, Meghan. I was about to have a late breakfast. Please join me if you’re hungry.”

“Thanks, I am a little hungry.” She helped herself to a biscuit and jelly.

“Thank you, Hollee,” said Juliska to the woman dressed in business attire.

After a few minutes, Meghan could no longer hold back why she had come. “This may be bad mannered of me…” she started.

Juliska put down her fork and gave Meghan her full attention.

“I’m not even sure how to begin. Something is happening, something terrible. Not to me…” she said, adding wearily, “Unless you count being a seer in the terrible category.”

“That bad?” asked Juliska, smiling sympathetically.

“Sorry, I think I’m just having a hard time adjusting.”

“That is entirely understandable, Meghan. It does take some practice and getting used to.”

Meghan knew instantly that Juliska understood her.

“Twice now,” said Meghan, getting to the heart of the visit, “I’ve had this overwhelming feeling. It tells me something is horribly wrong. The frustrating part is that I do not know what it is, or how to fix it.
