THE BRIGHTEST MINDS

Silver Eve, a time for witches and normal folk to come together, nears its final day. At the procession, witches from all walks will have an opportunity to secure an audience with the king–if they display an exceptional spell. In an attempt to help Dagda and Custas, Coco desperately trieds to concoct something but becomes frozen with fear. The only one who sees her in crisis is Agott, whose aid might bring them closer to the king…but farther from everything they once knew.
