Jayna got to her feet and looked around the inside of the home. Other than the broken glass Char had helped clean up, the home was actually quite tidy. Much like Char had alluded to, they didn’t have much in the cabinets. There hadn’t really been a need. They rarely entertained, and it was mostly just the two of them in the home. When they had others coming to them for help, they limited them to staying out in the main part of the home, and then only long enough for Jayna to offer whatever aid she could before sending them on their way.

Her stomach grumbled. She was hungry, and she suspected it wasn’t quite that late, so she figured she had time to go get some food. Eating might help clear her mind—as would talking with Char, she had to admit—and give her a little bit of focus on what she needed to do.

Figure out how to perform the tracking spell, which was the most challenging of all, then find Topher and the other missing people.

If she could find Rendal, then she was convinced she could figure out what they were up to and where the Festival of Mourn would take place. Once she did that, she could stop it. She certainly had to do so before whatever Ceran feared took place.

“Can you help me with Eva?” She headed over to the hearth, prying Eva’s hand off of the wine bottle and propping her up for a moment as she leaned behind her.

Char approached slowly. “She’s not going to come around again, is she?”

“Do you really think a little drunk girl is going to hurt you?”

“She might be little, and she might be drunk, but I do think she could hurt me.”

Jayna grinned up at him, grabbing Eva underneath her arms. “You’re probably right. She’s stronger than she looks.”

“It’s not about how strong she looks.” His face darkened and he wrinkled his brow, clearing his throat. “It’s about the kind of magic she has.”

“You don’t have to worry about her magic.”

“Jayna, I’m not dumb. I saw what she did.”

“I would never say you were dumb, Char.”

“Then do you want to tell me what she can do?”

She looked up at Char. He squeezed his hand and then relaxed while watching Eva, but he didn’t lean down and grab Eva’s feet.

Jayna started dragging her. “I don’t know what kind of magic she can do.” There was no point in denying that Eva could do magic. Char had been standing in the doorway long enough that he would have seen it. Even if he hadn’t, he had been there when they had taken the dwaring out of Topher. He had seen the power that had been required, and then he must have seen what Eva had done to the enchantment. “All I know is that she needs my help.”

“I thought you said she needed your help—past tense.”

Jayna’s gaze darted to the wine bottle. “She did, and I think she still does,” she added softly.
