Edie’s heart dropped in her chest. They were obviously going about this all wrong. “Then it’s not us you need to talk to,” she said. “Professor Strega, hasn’t Roe told you about this recurring vision she’s been having?”

Professor Strega frowned. “I have not had much chance to speak with Roe recently. We plan to meet tomorrow at noon.”

Corrie shook her head. “She did say that she’s planning to talk to you about it at that meeting, but she was glad to have it rescheduled… well, anyway, the important thing is that she says the vision is just teeth. That’s all she can ever remember from the visions.”

Edie waited for the professors to tell her, Corrie, and Dawn why they thought they would be able to help, but they seemed uncertain how to begin.

Edie actually felt a little jealous as he gave Dawn a kiss on the cheek and walked cheerfully back to Gilkey on his own. They were so sweet together, and Leila had never been that understanding, even when she had claimed to be.

But Leila was gone now. That was probably for the best. Edie missed her, but only because she’d been the first person to have a real romantic interest in her, at least who was actually a woman. She didn’t want that relationship back.

The three of them walked back over the paths to the magic building.

Edie saw a whole group of people who appeared to be approaching the arts building.
