There wasn’t really enough time to redistribute amulets, unfortunately. And that was assuming that Loren actually knew how many amulets there were, and who had them, and where they were staying, which he didn’t. Indeed, he just knew that Remi had a few and he had an empty one. And that was it. They really screwed themselves over with the not talking thing. ”If I don’t end up at the Guild, can you make sure the appropriate people know?” Even if they couldn’t change how many amulets were at each location, they could at least make sure the right people at each place had them. Unfortunately, if the Launceleyn did go to the Guild, he didn’t know of any other powerful Abandoned—other than Rexanna, that is—who would be at the Temple. Which was another argument for him being there.
The summoner had seen the real Spark Bird, at least as an illusion. However, he wasn’t so sure if he trusted the white-haired man’s evaluation of her. Still, the bard had firsthand experience that Loren didn’t, so maybe he should at least try to trust that. ”I didn’t know that. About the gifts.” If he had, he would’ve showered the perch with them, hoping to call down as much protection as possible. ”And I’d like that.” Maybe it wasn’t too late to make a contribution; indeed, between the the two men and the golem, they’d gotten the last minute carpeting almost done. Loren shouldered a small rug himself and his summons took the last two large ones. However, getting books and gifts would take some time as well, and the sands of the hourglass were almost all at the bottom.

Never judge a book by its cover.
