“No, all of her assigned Beacon Enchantments were in place,” Mr. Cinnamon said and gestured to the ribbon and spectacles beside Lady Rosemary’s bed.

The ‘magician’ grinned, then reached for his chest and ripped off his own body — face, cloak and all tearing away as if it was merely a costume — and revealing the Reaper standing in its place. She dropped the magical disguise and it fell softly to the floor, crumpling in on itself like a paper-bag, before dissolving.

Notes:
A few days later, transformed into a rabbit, Sam zipped across the snowy Palace Gardens. His lessons with Grim didn’t often venture from the Terrace, but as Sam was trying out transformative enchantments, they opted to go somewhere with a little more room.
The powdery snow was cold against Sam’s delicate paws, but his slick coat warmed the rest of his body. I really love eating vegetables and hopping, Sam reminded himself, trying to keep the enchantment going, as he scampered past Grim and sprang over a frozen bird-bath. Whilst his ‘definitely a rabbit’ thoughts ran on a loop, he tried to keep one imaginary finger on the enchantment itself. Sam found enchantments were a balancing act — concentrate on it too hard and you can’t do anything else, but don’t concentrate enough and —
With a puff of white smoke, Sam was himself again, crouched on all fours and feeling quite ridiculous. “Sorry,” he said as Grim stomped over. “The transformation ones are really hard.”

Notes:
The Reaper whipped about and jabbed a finger at him. A wave of yellow light threw Sam from his feet, his body seeming to collapse in on itself, shrinking as the world around him suddenly magnified a thousand times. Still falling, his tiny body turned slick and grey — and he finally understood. He’d been turned into a slug. A smooth, gloved hand snatched him out of the air, the Reaper’s surprisingly gentle fingers closing around his soft slimy body.

“What are you doing?” Sam panicked as a band of green light appeared around his neck, the magic softly vibrating against his throat.
“It’s called a Verification Enchantment,” Grim said. “It detects minute changes in body temperature, sweat levels, and heartbeats – all common signs of dishonesty.”
“So it can tell if someone’s lying?”
“It can suggest whether someone’s lying...”
