Chapter 17

Friday night, as Lana was getting ready for bed, something inexplicable happened. Jules was in her head, but not in the usual daydreaming about him way. No, he was in her head—talking! She sank onto the bed, partially undressed and completely confused.

Lana, I’m back, the voice in her head was saying, Can you hear me? Lana?

She thought about him way too much, but she never thought she’d lose her sanity over a man, however handsome and desirable he might be.

Handsome? Thanks! replied the voice. Don’t worry, you’re not crazy,

Okay, this was just freaky weird. What was going on? How was he inside her head? Could he see her too? Suddenly self-conscious, she slid into bed and yanked the sheet over her.

No, I can’t see you, he answered. Unfortunately.

How could he contact her from Ahmonell? Or even from the Amulet? They’d established a telepathic link once before, but he’d been only a mile or two away.

I’m in the Amulet with Raenihel and a few other gnomes. We’re trying an experiment. We found a gem at Last Hope that lets multiple users combine their powers.

She gasped. The Focal Gem! They’d found the Focal Gem?

Yes! Raenihel said you’d know about it. One of the spell books you found in the armory said we should look for it.

She spoke aloud, even though he could hear her thoughts. “That’s right. I can’t believe you found it! So, you and some of the Anen clan opened a telepathic link to me?”

Exactly. A telepathic channel. Very useful, isn’t it?

“Yeah, it’s great. Only I guess it means we’re on a party line.”

Party line?

She laughed. “This isn’t a private conversation,” she explained.

True, we all hear your thoughts.

Time to end this call—before she thought about something embarrassing.

Were you planning to come tomorrow? I can pick you up in the morning.

“Sure, that would be great. The earlier the better. Around eight o’clock?”

“I’ll be there.”

She waited a moment to make sure the only thoughts in her head were hers, and then she threw back the covers and danced around the room. Jules and Elias were back! If it weren’t for the armory fiasco, she’d be even happier to see them. By now, they’d probably heard all about her misadventure. At least she had gotten the weapons out and found more spell books.

She finished undressing and got back into bed. Tomorrow couldn’t come soon enough!
