For the second time that night, Tolan found himself outside, wind swirling around him, the sense of shapings all around. For the most part, it was spirit, the sense of the Grand Master and the Grand Inquisitor and whatever they were doing to call back the Inquisitors, but there were other shapings mixed in, some from within the Academy, but others outside in the main part of the city.

Amitan was a place of power, a place where shapers collected, and over the years, more and more shapers had remained, giving the city a certain sense of power that emanated from it. There weren’t many other places within Terndahl quite as powerful as Amitan. It was the seat of the Academy, which made it special, but it was also the seat of Terndahl, the capital, and a place of much power.

Tolan focused on what he could detect all around him, letting those shapings swirl and flow over him and trying to work through what the master librarian had just suggested to him. It was the same as what the Grand Master had wanted, and in the case of Master Minden, he suspected there was more to it than she shared. He didn’t know her well, but well enough to recognize she had some motive.

More than that, he had to find out if there was some way to follow the shaping sense he suspected came from his father or the other disciples of the Draasin Lord. If he managed to find it, he would have to convince them he posed no threat if his father wasn’t present.

All of it seemed far beyond what he as a student could do. It was more than he thought he should do.

Yet, his father was out there.

It was still hard to come to grips with the fact that his parents had left him, abandoning him so they could go in service of the Draasin Lord, and in doing so, they had abandoned him to a life of danger. Not only had he been put under the charge of Master Daniels, someone who he now understood served the Draasin Lord in a different and dangerous way, but he’d been subjected to the comments and rumors their disappearance had created. Life in Ephra had been hard.

Tolan tried to pick out individual shapings, but as he listened to them, there was nothing he could detect. There had to be some way to reach the disciples, but after spending the last
