Foster sat and watched the remaining professors enter the Great Hall. Those deserving of a polite greeting received one. The others, Rafferty, did not. Once he caught eye of Gaston, he smiled brightly. Gaston, Joshua, and Katrina had made the year tolerable and all had proven to be of high character. He felt honored to call them friends. “Indeed we did.” He responded to Katrina’s statement.

He leaned forward to better chat with his colleagues. “Josh, I think that a meet up in Diagon Alley would be splendid. How about we get Kartina and Gaston in on our rendezvous?” He glanced first to Gaston, then turned to Katrina.

Before the conversation could go much further, the speech started. At the command to rise, Foster remained in his seat. He was over it. Over the ridiculous rules and over the improper behavior by those claiming to be in charge. When the speech ended, he saw her. Regina was there, and smiling. He watched her hand out letters, and the evil began to leave.

In all of the hubbub of letters being handed out and less than happy goons leaving the Great Hall, Foster hadn’t noticed Kay leave and return. Once she reached the staff table, he almost jumped from his chair to embrace her. His heart pounded in his chest, and he briefly closed his eyes to let the rush of relief that she was okay wash over him. “Professor Stewart, wonderful to see you looking so well this evening.” He let his eyes run up and down, scanning to make sure she hadn't been harmed in any way by the extended use of the potion. “It has been quite the year.” He smiled as he watched her take the seat that should have never been taken away from her.

When Kalen and Tristan joined the table in their proper forms, his anxiety level dropped even further. “Gentleman, it’s absolutely wonderful to have you both sitting in your rightful place again. I don’t have words for how much you both were missed.”
