Lucrezia:  Her face bore no expression, yet she stared at Tinasha with eyes of glittering gold.

Tinasha:  “Ah…” Instinctively, Tinasha took a step back.

Lucrezia:  The girl reached out both arms to her. Her face emerged from the pillar as if she were rising from water. Red lips parted as a voice made all of the darkness tremble. “I wish for the rejection of any outsiders watching. I wish for the refutation of any interference. I shall bestow a fitting transformation upon the one who can accomplish that.” The pressure was crushing. Tinasha’s very soul shook, like she was rupturing into pieces. The voice seemed to come from the holes above and below the column. It could not have been a human sound. If this girl was a witch, she was far too different from anyone else. This went beyond strength—she was simply unfathomable.

Lucrezia:  While Tinasha was still too stunned to speak, the girl lowered her eyelids. When she opened her eyes again, they were still locked on Tinasha. There was emotion in that gaze now, where there hadn’t been before. It seemed closest to curiosity. The girl tilted her head inquisitively. “Why are you here? Did you break the barrier to come?”

Tinasha:  “Yes…I did. I wanted Senn to tell me what was going on.”

Lucrezia:  At that, the girl looked to the spirit. Her amber eyes narrowed skeptically before she returned her gaze to Tinasha without saying anything to him. “Which means you’re the Queen of Tuldarr. You have so much magic that it really surprised me. I thought you were a new witch.”

Tinasha:  “I’m just as surprised. What is that pillar that’s passing through planes of existence?”

Lucrezia:  “This? It’s connected to the world itself, making it ironclad as far as conceptual things go. All it can do is protect me, and I can’t use my own will to activate it. It’s strong, but not that easy to use.”

Tinasha:  “How is such a thing even possible? I can’t figure it out at all. And what did you mean by what you said before? About wishing to reject outsiders watching.”

Lucrezia:  “Huh? What are you talking about?” The girl blinked, her tone so unconcerned that it was hard to believe she was lying.

Tinasha:  Thinking back on it, Tinasha did sense that the booming call sounded more like something rising from the holes than like any sound this girl could have produced. If anything, she was probably just a mouthpiece. Tinasha muttered, “So that means it came from another realm, and if I mess up, then the fabric of the world itself…”

Lucrezia:  “So? What do you think you’re doing breaking that barrier I worked so hard to put up?” demanded Lucrezia, bringing Tinasha back to herself.

Tinasha:  Her train of thought had derailed, and she got herself back on track. “I want to destroy this mirror. You’re the Witch of the Forbidden Forest, aren’t you?”

Lucrezia:  “I am."
