A wooden ceiling beam. To the left hand side of the beam (roughly central in the picture) the knots and grain of the wood look somewhat like half the face of a small fluffy dog. Or maybe it's just me.

Black text on a white background reading: “I know. But remember, I chose this as your first spell because I think it should be easy — relatively easy, anyway. Magic is all about intent. This is — or was — your home. You should already view it as yours. Your space. Your sanctum. The desire to protect it, and by extension yourself, is already there. You just need to channel it.” The word "magic" is highlighted yellow.

Black text on a white background reading: Raven’s eyes searched her, gaze probing, but gently so. Eventually, she said, “So you want to make Ethel proud?” Sarah nodded. “Well, then. Let’s see what we can do about that.” Raven stood, striding out of the room and starting up the stairs. The magpie fluttered up, landing back on the sofa next to Sarah. “Come on, Sarah Southeil. You’ve a lot to learn.” “Sarah Southeil.” The words had a croaky quality, not like Raven’s soft, smooth voice. Sarah looked down at the bird — Raven’s familiar. It stared back with large black eyes. “That’s me,” she said weakly. “At least, I think it is. And what’s your name?” “Poe.” He looked at her for a moment, head tilted, before taking flight, fluttering over to his favoured spot on Raven’s shoulder.

Black text on a white background reading: "While he dozed off almost immediately, sleep eluded her. Her brain was too busy reexamining every childhood memory now that she knew the truth. Everything she’d told herself she’d imagined or made up. Everything her grandma told her that she’d assumed was just a story. Everything her mother had ever said about why she’d left." The word "immediate" is highlighted yellow.

Black text on white background reading: “That’s because I’m not really a cat,” he said simply. Before she could respond, he walked over to the back door and kept walking. As he passed through it, he took on an almost smoke like quality, as if made of pure shadow. He reappeared a moment later, phasing back through the door before settling back into the appearance of a normal black cat. “Okay then,” Sarah said slowly. “So you can walk through walls.” “As long as they don’t have iron in them.” “And food?” He tilted his head slightly. “I don’t need to eat really. But I like to. Most folk around here leave food out for me if I meow at them enough.” “Anything else I should know?” “All in good time.” He walked over, brushing around her legs. “I wouldn’t want to distract you from your unpacking.”
