Once again, Aegis found herself in Valdris's office.
Sylceris was standing near the window, arms crossed, looking about as thrilled to be here as Aegis felt. Their eyes met when Aegis walked in, and for a brief second, the air between them got a little heavier.
[Great. Her again.]
"Starcaller," Valdris said. "Sit."
Aegis sat.
"I'll keep this brief. Miss Wynne here has been placed in all of your classes, effective immediately."
"..."
Aegis blinked. She looked at Sylceris, who hadn't moved, then back at Valdris.
"All of them?"
"All of them."
[Okay. Think. Why would Valdris put the girl who knocked out a noble on her first day into every single one of my classes?]
She glanced at Sylceris again. The girl's jaw was tight, her eyes fixed on the wall behind Valdris like she was trying to burn a hole through it. She wasn't happy about this either.
