540 The Cat Knows Best

Wolfe looked down at the tome that Stephanie had compiled with a sense of satisfaction. Two hundred pages, detailing over twenty essential spells and theories, in order, and separated by Element for easy index, just the way that he had worked them out today.

Sophie was sitting at the table, working on her homework, the same as she had been all day, and it was almost dinner time, after which they would be going up to the spire to start the day's ceremony.

Two days in a row was a lot of new Familiars, but the Rank Three Witches were going to go right when the moon came up, and the Rank Two would go after them, slightly out of the optimal time, but still close.

There were only ten Rank Three Witches today, so two groups, and that wouldn't be too bad. Plus, all the others had been here a long time, so they would split up to celebrate with their friends right away, making it a less formal feeling atmosphere than yesterday's where all the summoners were new arrivals.
