A/N: A Word of Explination About This Newest Chapter.
In my newest English class, our assignment was to write a passage where our chosen characters don't actually do anything. it's supposed to give us a better look at the character or something like that.To be honest I kinda stopped paying attnetion the moment he turned the lights of to show us a video at the beginning of class. This is what I came up with at a time that was so late, that it didn't really matter what time it is (I think it was 11:00 pm or something, usually when my muse kicks in but not this night).:::looks at the explanation:: Hmmmm... kinda rambling there.... that could only mean one hting... NEED MORE SUGAR!!! (It helps my Muse..ya...that's it...sure...)
Ahem.
I'll tell what, I'll go resupply my Sugar Stash , you read this portion and review okay? Okay then, Read on Macduff

Liam and the others had apparently planned to teach her. To help her prepare for her Ordeal, they said. Whenever she wasn't at the 99 cents store, she was at the library with Nita, the Rose Center with Dairine and the computer Spot, or a nearby community college where Kit taught. They were all willing to help her learn the Speech and new, but small spells, but mostly they taught what they knew. From Nita she learned healing and animal spells. Dairine and Spot, taught about solar systems and aliens. Kit's lessons centered around inanimate things, like rocks and metals.
They tried to help, but there were still problems. First was the fact that they were teaching her at all. Her manual said that most people learned on their own, with the manual for help. She'd plagued the four for an explanation and they'd all avoided the issue. The only reason they gave, was that Liam had asked for it, fro her protection and something else they refused to mention.
Then there was the lessons. Cyrene gathered from the lessons, that they had all been geniuses when younger, or at least close to one. They'd definitely had formal educations. Cyrene's education had anything but formal. The time before Liam was spent learning how to lie, cheat, and steal without being caught. The time after varied between formal education, and following Liam to be where she wasn't supposed to be. And sitting in a class room had bothered her anyway. After all, who cared about the distance between the Sun the Earth and the Moon, when there was a haunted house to be explored before the sun went down? The differences showed too, over half of what the Advisors said went in one ear and out the other (the other half didn't even reached the first ear).
And then there were the dreams. Raven and Coyote no longer appeared, replaced by the image of that beautiful place. Each time she dreamt it was clearer. Each time the echo called to her, tempting her, drawing her closer to that place, to the people who lived there. And to the horla. After a full day of work and another full day's worth of learning spells, she had collapsed onto her bed only to dream about it again. And this time, someone was waiting for her.
