THE LAPIS TRIAL

That was quick was my first thought, followed closely by a fierce sense of pride.

I wasn’t surprised she got through the caygon and her kittens, but she was the first channeler I’d trained to pass the lapis trial. Hopefully, she wasn’t the last.

Poor Clairannia had sat at that water’s edge for ages, sifting through the thousands of ruby and diamond rings, looking for her exact one which she could not realize was still on her finger. She’d finally tapped one of them three times, sending her back to me where I assured her, she would pass the next trial. Figuerah had given in almost immediately, not caring about passing what she didn’t want to follow anyway.

I wanted to see Karus, but then again, I didn’t.

It would mean she had failed one of the trials, and I so badly wanted her to pass them all.

Two down.

Three to go.
