The Principal's Office

[tailor_made]

The door to the principal’s office is open at all hours, although you will only find Hester at the receptionist’s desk from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. This is primarily where you can have private conversations with her. Though there’s an actual office in the back, it is always closed and locked.

[What on Earth is a yard sard? A bartering spell?]

So they were taken from their habitat, but they are not familiars. [He thinks he gets it.] Is that where The Wizard gets everything from those machines?

[tailor_made]

Yes, exactly! [She smiles.] Sort of, yes. Most of it is just stray bits and bobs from other worlds, things that are recognizable but not necessarily belonging to anyone here.

But I'm sure you've noticed a lot of your things are in there as well.

[mcfife]

...Yes.

The Knife of Evil.

Are you familiar with the artifact?

[tailor_made]

I know enough. Why?

[mcfife]

Do you have the original?

...Is there a reason why you only gave me a replica?

[tailor_made]

No, we don't have it. The original is long gone at this point. That's why you just have a rubber replica.

[mcfife]

Oh, good. [Finally. He can relax. But-]

What do you mean, "long gone?"

[tailor_made]

What I said. It lost it's magic and then the blade was disposed of some time later.

[mcfife]

Yes, but I last saw it less than two weeks ago when it was being used in a ritual. Did it lose its magic then?
