"Ooh, a prince!" Urd said, smiling. That sounded promising. She watched him work his magic on the cup, placing her chin on her hand. "Hmmm," she murmured at the end of his demonstration. "Probably a good idea. Still, I hope he learns whatever it is he needs to before too long. Spells like that usually have some kind of time limit; kiss the frog before midnight and that sort of thing."

She shrugged at his question, lightly tracing the rim of the empty teacup with her finger. "Ever since that excursion to Halloween Town, I've been laying a bit low." She smirked as she gazed down at the table, recalling a memory. "Had a little fun with a demon. And I've been keeping an eye on the Master. He's a creepy guy, but I can't help but feel there might be more to him than I thought."
