Chapter 630

Katelina woke, the dream fresh in her mind. She shook Jorick awake, and poured it out to him.

"Katelina. Slow down. What shield? What are you talking about?"

She gave an impatient huff and ran through it again. Already, details were disappearing; the building, the color of the walls. Were the rooms carpeted or hardwood? Every detail could be a clue. She struggled to hold onto them.

Jorick looked grim as she finished. "That's not much to go on, little one."

"I know. But if we can't figure it out-" She sighed. "Samael doesn't need us to fight Lilith, but Sarah and Estrilda might be there. He's not going to worry about saving them. I think the shield may be the key. The room-there were glass cases-like a museum. He said different cultures had different names for it. Maybe it's something Sorino knows about."

"Our resident relic hunter," Jorick mused.

She threw the blankets off. "I'll go ask him."

He caught her elbow. "There's no reason to be in such a hurry. We're awake early."
