Jackson reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a letter. He hands it to me without prompting. It’s written in code again. “Who deciphered this for you?” I ask.

“Zael,” Glenn says. “He says to use your magic if you want to read it.”

“Noooo,” I say with a sarcastic laugh in my voice. “I tried a few weeks ago, and I couldn’t so much as conjure a speck of magic.”

“Because you were too distracted. Worried about me. Try it now.”
