  1. Daniel felt a rush of strange energy, and a strong sense of familiarity.
  2. They now heard sobs from inside the office.
  3. "They are extremely difficult to kill. If you remove the spikes in their heads or one particular spike in their backs, they die. But they are extremely magically powerful and physically strong."
  4. "It's... complicated. The spikes manipulate their Spiritweb, and something about that moves their vital organs so it doesn't kill them."
  5. TAAron went pale. "Steel inquisitor. Remember what I said about Hemalurgy? They use that. They're the chief ministers to the Lord Ruler." He thought for a moment. "I might have heard Elariel mention them. I hoped that I had misheard..."
  6. TAAron nodded. "So, they'll make some sort of announcement or display. Then what?" The music began, and couples began moving out to the dance floor.
  7. After a few moments, they heard angry yelling from inside the room, muffled and indistinct.
  8. The university man spoke up. "I'm afraid I will have to wish to Mr. Pierce alone for a time." @Just-A-Stick
  9. "Who was that? Can we find him?"
  10. "Who's, then?"
  11. "If she had listened... If I had convinced her..."
  12. "That foolish girl..." He buried his head in his hands, beginning to tremble.
  13. Oliver stared into Daniel's eyes, nearly expressionless. "I... I told her that she shouldn't have gone to this school."
  14. "How?" His voice came out tight and raspy.
  15. Oliver's expression went stony. "No she hasn't."
  16. "Who are you?" Julie's father asked angrily. "Where is my daughter?"
  17. He raised an eyebrow. "Is that true?"
  18. "Would you two like to leave the room while I speak to Mr. Pierce?" @Lightweaver2
  19. The man from before entered. He was closely followed by another man, immediately recognizable as Julie's father. The second man looked very tense.
  20. Just then, a knock sounded at the door.
