Allie's education continues

There are more than a few rules of magic --

..."The last, but far from the least, is: ‘Everything is connected to everything else.’"

“Oh, yes, that is truth,” I replied, thinking of the golden bands of light weaving the world together.

“So you have already seen that rule in action?” Professor de Lancey said. “What made that lesson so vivid for you?”

I gave him a long look, my mind suddenly a tangle of images. I had learned of the great connection from the angel of Death, one snowy day not so very long ago. I was fighting for my freedom, and maybe even my life. Death needed a favor, was the simplest way to think of it. Between us, we had pulled down an ancient evil, and called it to the Other Side.

It was a lesson in Wild Magic. I was trying hard not to talk about the Wild Magic, but it was the magic I knew best, and it kept cropping up.

“There were these mushrooms...” I started weakly.

Professor de Lancey laughed.
