The Princess of Trelian (2012)
“CALEN SAID IMPATIENTLY.
“And now?”
“Red.”
“And now?”
“We’ve been through all of these spells already. More than once. Why are you still —?”
“You were instructed to cooperate,” Mage Brevera said. “Now answer the question.”
Calen sighed. “Orange swirled with white.”
They had been doing this for hours. Calen shifted on the hard wooden chair, feeling uncomfortably crowded in the cramped little room, filled as it was with the three mages and himself. Mage Brevera’s two companions, Mage Thomil and Ma...ge Mettleson, took turns casting various spells in front of him while Mage Brevera ordered Calen to identify the colors involved. They were repeating spells now; Calen didn’t know if they’d run out of easy spells to cast or if they were just trying to trick him. He still didn’t understand what they were trying to accomplish. And they still wouldn’t explain how he represented a danger to the Magistratum.
“Now,” Mage Brevera said, “tell me what kind of spell I’m casting.”MoreLess
