The girl under the Truth Spell is pale and distracted. Counting in her head to twenty.
The room is full of magic auras, of every school, not just spells in effect now but also spells that were in effect before, hanging in the air like magic dust, gradually unravelling. There's some divinations, some illusions, some conjurations, some transmutations, some abjurations. Some of them visibly stronger spells than others.
There is one enchantment on the girl. Its pattern is recognizable; it's the one he cast.
"Everything I've said so far was the truth," she says shakily when she has counted to twenty.
