POV: Luna The cleanup took hours. Students worked to repair damage. Faculty reinforced wards. Healers tended to the injured. Cassandra's Circle was taken into custody. Real custody this time, with magical suppressors that couldn't be broken. As the sun set, the Headmaster called an assembly. The entire student body gathered in the courtyard, battered but standing. "Today, we faced a threat unlike any in recent history," the Headmaster began. "A dark mage seeking to break the seal between worlds. An attack that could have destroyed not just Silverwood, but reality itself." Murmurs rippled through the crowd. "But we survived. Thanks to the courage and sacrifice of our students. Particularly one student and her pack." He gestured to me and my friends. Everyone turned to look at us.
