Chapter One

"Alright," said Oralie. "The Council has only accessed one forgotten secret in my memory and it was done through proper channels."

She emphasized proper in a way that made Sophie's cheeks flame.

"So how do we do it?" Sophie asked.

"I think I just say the password, which must be stellarlune, or something related to that." replied the counselor.

"Okay, do you have to say it a cer-". She was cut off as a grinding noise emanated from the cache. It split open, and the marble broke open. Then, a new memory began.



"What happened to you?" an elf Sophie had never seen said to who she assumed was Councillor Terik.

He replied "Well Rayana, I was experimenting with ethertine and magsidian, holding them, one in each hand, and had Lady Zillah and Cyrah Endal shoot shadows and light at the magsidian and ethertine, respectively. The next thing I knew, I was being wrapped up in this cocoon thing and falling asleep. Then I woke up here.

Rayana asked: "Well, can you still feel my emotions?"

Sophie's blood froze. Councillor Terik-an Empath?

"Strangely, no. All I get when I touch someone is this sense of good or evil, not their emotions. It almost seems like I can feel their soul. It's really hard to explain. I think...I might have become a Descryer, although I don't know how that is possible" replied Terik.

The look on Rayana's face showed she was shocked. "What?! There hasn't been one of those since Fallon's father."



The memory ended. Oralie looked up at Sophie- fear in her eyes. "Is that what happened to Keefe?"

Sophie's head was spinning. "Kind of. But it wasn't regular shadows, it was shadowflux."

When Oralie asked what that meant, internally Sophie wanted to stand up and yell at Oralie that she didn't know, why would Sophie, the new girl, know, but she restrained herself and instead said, "Keefe might become a Descryer, as Councillor Terik did, or maybe he will manifest a new ability that we've never seen before. All I know is that if we can change people's abilities, our world will never be the same again."
