Chapter 55

If someone were to wander Magnolia that day, they would not notice anything amiss.

The streets were bustling with people readying themselves for the coming festival, cafes filled with raucous laughter and stories as stores quickly emptied of food for the customary treats everyone would eat that night.

Breaking the barriers was beyond her expertise, and a time-consuming effort she could not afford at the moment, so Jack went straight for the new guildhall instead.

Maybe someone there could tell her what the hell was going on.
