Rose had never been nervous about tests or exams. Not even a little bit. For whatever reason, the fates had blessed her with a memory that allowed her to recall just about everything she had seen or read over the years. So rather than being nervous about the upcoming test – the test that would finish her training as a Cursebreaker – she was anxious: anxious to get as much new knowledge and as many new techniques and comparisons into her arsenal as she possibly could.

Somehow, her reading about warding techniques amongst 17th century Zulus had ended up with her in the middle of the living room, four books hovering in front of her as she furiously compared and outlined the similarities in mythology and background of Tupilaqs, Tikolosh, and Boggarts, not to mention all the various counter spells, wards, and rituals. Her quill was dancing across the parchment, creating an intricate diagram as she reached for another papanași with her free hand, cursing up a storm when she burned her tongue on the cherry filling. Ant whined from the floor where he was looking up at her, and that had her feeling momentarily guilty. “Aww, I’m sorry, big boy. I wasn’t cursing at you,” she cooed, biting off half the papanași – this time much more carefully – and blew on it until it had cooled before she held it out to him. She let him snuffle it down, and when he started licking her fingers, she took another moment to ruffle his fur.
