All she could do was send Septimus the best kind of SafeCharm she had-and this was it.

There was nothing she could do to stop it. And so she knew that despite Marcia’s insistence that she herself would be flying Spit Fyre to get Jenna, Nicko, Snorri and Beetle, it would actually be Septimus on the dragon. She knew enough about what people called second Sight to know that really it should be called first Sight-it was never wrong. And nothing was a terrifying Sight.Īfter the Seeing Aunt Zelda had been in turmoil. Feeling extremely shaken, she had sat very still and Looked into the blackness but had seen nothing. After Marcia had left, Aunt Zelda had been overcome by a sudden Sight: Septimus on Spit Fyre, a blinding flash of light and nothing more, nothing but blackness.

Marcia’s visit to Keeper’s Cottage to collect the potions for Ephaniah and Hildegarde earlier that morning had left Aunt Zelda feeling very twitchy.

She felt a little nervous-the small flask that rested in her hand was an incredibly rare live SafeCharm, and she had never even touched one before. She saw the deep, dark shine of the purest gold-gold spun by the spiders of Aurum-and a thick silver stopper inscribed with the single hieroglyph of a long-forgotten name. شربیانیĪunt Zelda picked up a small, pear-shaped gold bottle and placed it very carefully in the palm of her hand.

While coming back they are trapped in an island and there they learn of an evil plan to destroy their homeland, The Castle. The story continues from the previous release Queste and deals with Septimus going to pick up his friends from a distant land. It was released on Septemby HarperCollins and Bloomsbury Publishing.
