light…” Ethan shook his head. “That’s not a natural<br />

color for this kind of power. The silver is a masking<br />

spell, something the conjurer used to conceal his first<br />

casting. The first spell was yellow. I saw just a hint of it<br />

before the silver covered it over. That was the true<br />

color of his casting. It spread from her heart as well,<br />

and I think it would have covered her entire body, just<br />

as the silver does. She was used as the source for<br />

another killing spell.”<br />

“By a conjurer whose power is yellow?” the minister<br />

asked, clearly trying to follow what Ethan was telling<br />

“Basically.”<br />

“But I didn’t see any color from your spell.”<br />

Ethan smiled. “That’s because you haven’t cast a<br />

revealing spell. What I saw with that yellow was not<br />

really his conjuring, but the residue of it. All spells leave<br />

behind some trace of the conjurer’s power. They also<br />

leave some trace of the source used by the conjurer to<br />

make the spell work. There’s a spell to reveal that, as<br />

well.”<br />
