      Spell Sisters - Amber Castle

      he old round castle nestled on a hilltop. A crumbling outer wall and a moat surrounded it, with a wooden drawbridge across the muddy water. A round tower stood in the centre, with a wooden staircase leading up to a large oak door.

      The door swung open and a beautiful woman with hair as black as a bat’s wing marched out. A raven was perched on her shoulder, and in her hands she held a silver crown. Striding down the staircase, she stopped in the grassy keep, the early morning breeze whispering through her hair.

      ‘See what I can do, my beauty!’ Morgana hissed to her raven. She waved her right hand above the points of the crown. Instantly, the rubies and emeralds changed to dark jet stones, and the silver of the crown began to grow dull. Morgana’s lips curved into a delighted smile. She clicked her fingers and watched as the metal slowly bent into twisted shapes.

      ‘Behold!’ she said, holding the crown up to the raven. ‘With the magic I have stolen from my sister Amelia, I can now make minerals and metals appear and disappear, and move them to my will.’ She laughed triumphantly. ‘And what’s more, soon the island of Avalon will be mine at last!’

      The raven cawed and put his head on one side as if asking a question.

      ‘Those girls?’ Morgana snarled. ‘No, they shall not stop me.’

      Pulling a small dark crystal ball from her pocket, she muttered a word. An image flickered inside the glass, showing a tall girl with deep red hair and a shorter, very pretty, blonde girl. They were in a bedchamber, chatting and laughing as they packed clothes into travelling trunks. Morgana’s eyes narrowed.

      ‘Look at them! They are nothing but children. They may have rescued three of my sisters, but all eight must be freed by the time of the next lunar eclipse if they are to stop me taking Avalon for my own. Time is running out for them – the eclipse is approaching soon. They will not defeat me!’

      The raven cawed in delight. Thrusting the ball back in her pocket, Morgana lifted the crown. Placing it on her head, she smiled. . .

      wen watched as her cousin Flora carefully smoothed the creases out of her mother’s new red dress as it lay in the travelling case and smiled. Flora pushed her long blonde plaits behind her shoulders with a flourish. ‘Oh, I’m so excited!’ she declared. ‘I can’t wait to go to this tournament. Just think of all the beautiful ladies and handsome knights we’re going to see.’ Her blue eyes grew dreamy. ‘And there’ll be dancing, music and feasting in the evenings, and I can wear my new blue dress! It’ll be so much fun!’

      ‘I can’t wait either – but I just want to see all the horses and watch the competitions!’ Gwen said with a laugh, packing her aunt’s headdresses and cloaks into another trunk. Gwen loved tournaments, where knights would take part in lots of different contests over three or four days. There was jousting, where the knights had to charge at each other on horseback and try and knock each other off using a long stick called a lance, and sword fighting. . . Gwen smiled again just thinking about it. It was all so exciting! At the end of the tournament, one knight was announced the winner.

      Sometimes the tournaments were held far away and then Gwen’s uncle, Sir Richard, would go off on his own to compete with his squire and pages. This time, though, the tournament was being held at Clement Castle, which was not that far, so Gwen’s Aunt Matilda, Flora’s mother, had said that the entire household could go and watch. And as the events would be going on for a few days, arrangements had been made for everyone to stay at the castle. Gwen and Flora had been looking forward to it for days.

      Gwen sighed happily as she shut the travelling case, her tangle of shoulder-length dark red hair bouncing with her excitement. ‘This one’s going to be even more fun because there’s going to be a contest for the squires and pages this afternoon before the main fighting starts tomorrow. I can’t wait to see it!’

      Flora gave her a teasing look. ‘I’m surprised you’re not planning on disguising yourself as a boy and entering yourself!’

      ‘I wish I could!’ Gwen said yearningly. She loved doing all the things the pages did. But although she was allowed to ride and use a bow and arrow near the manor grounds, tournaments were strictly forbidden for her, or any girls.

      Flora’s blue eyes widened. ‘Imagine how cross Mother would be if you did enter!’

      ‘I know.’ Gwen really had considered disguising herself, but pages didn’t wear proper armour when they fought in contests and she knew her aunt would be bound to spot her. ‘If Aunt Matilda found out, she’d ban me from going outside, and that would be very bad news.’ Gwen’s hand reached for the large blue pendant that hung on a silver chain around her neck. It
