surroundings and make it difficult for creatures like the wyverns to fly out here, spot the castle quickly,

and attack before anyone knows they are here. They'll be busy hunting around looking for it, giving us

more time to see them and ready ourselves for a counter attack."

The third-eldest sighed. "I must agree. Painting over the gardens, courtyards, and all the glass of the

windows would be too difficult, and the shapes of the buildings would still stand out too easily," Dominor

pointed out, making his own offering to the others. "But an illusion , cast over the whole of the castle

grounds, added to and augmenting the warning-and-warding spells we have already cast over everything,

that might work."

"A combination of the two would work best," Saber stated. "Dominor, work on the illusion; you're the

best enchanter we have. If you set it in an object, we can fix it to the storm-vane on the peak of this hall,

and it will be able to spread out like a dome, allowing us to see everything on the island from within as it

actually appears, but still be able to hide the castle from those beyond its walls. Set it to work effectively

both from a distance and from close up, and from either the ground or the air… and make it so that those

who are given verbal permission from one of us to enter the compound can actually see the entrance

gates and such when they do draw near.

"I would like to be able to find our home from an approach on the ground, but some camouflage at

ground-level would still be helpful. Morganen, work on your paint. Try to see if you can make it last a

good few decades with only minor touch-up spells. I have reason to hope it will not take much longer to

find our foe, now that he or she grows more agitated at being thwarted, and thus potentially more

careless. But others may think to do the same later on, if word ever gets out that there is now a woman in

our hall.

"I will not have Lady Kelly harmed."

"She is our sister, Saber," Morganen returned, answering the unspoken order in his eldest brother's

words. The calm, clear intent behind his words was echoed in the faces of the others around them, even

Rydan's. "We will protect her with our very lives."

With the focus of the protective looks around her, Kelly felt a warmth spread through her, from the

middle of her chest out. These eight men—real "witches," not just the imagined kind—had welcomed her

into their hearts as well as their home. Something many of the folk of a certain Midwest town back on

Earth had not . This odd world was now more of a home to her than her old one, in that regard.

She cared for Saber and liked his brothers, even if there weren't any other females for company right

now. She liked her life here, with nothing but time to stitch and knit and sew, to talk and laugh with men

who put up with her occasionally strawberry-haired, tart-worded temper and assertive will.
