Eileen Caldwell had always been the epitome of a laid-back individual. From her early years to her teens, her passion for leisure rivaled that of any professional napper. School was merely a necessary inconvenience, and she found herself comfortably situated at the bottom of her class hierarchy, much to the chagrin of her teachers and the bemusement of her peers.

Gone were the days of lounging around without consequence; instead, Eileen found herself thrust into a destiny she could scarcely have imagined.

No longer could she while away the hours in blissful ignorance; instead, she was called upon to harness her latent magical abilities and rise to the challenge that lay before her.

I was asleep, deep in the comfort of my bed, when I started to hear a voice calling my name. "Eileen," it said softly.

I blinked my eyes open, groggy and disoriented. The room was dimly lit by the soft glow of the moon filtering through the curtains. I squinted at the figure standing by my bed, trying to make sense of the silhouette. "Lise?" I mumbled, still half-asleep and slightly startled. "What are you doing here?"

Lise took a deep breath, her eyes reflecting a mix of determination and vulnerability. "I need to talk to you," she said, her voice steady but with an undertone of emotion. I could see her struggling to find the right words.

I need to apologize
