Bridget Gale was in the middle of class when the door burst open and Chancellor Lumin strode inside.
"Mrs. Gale, with me, we have a situation. Dismiss your class."
It took Bridget a moment to process, but she nodded before informing the class they were dismissed and to remember their assignments. She left her notes and their graded tests on her desk before speeding up the stairs as her students gathered their things.
"What kind of situation?" she asked as soon as she finished her ascent, only to have to follow Lumin as she left the room immediately.
"The kind that would have me swearing in front of students when I got the news," she answered crankily. "There will be time to talk in the air carriage."
