Aliya Sultan stretched out her trembling hands and took a deep breath. She could feel her palms light up, beginning to radiate and glow with colour: blue, silver and pink. The travel key felt heavy in her hands as she carefully inserted it into the lock of the wooden door that stood before her in the middle of the room. But just before turning it, she hesitated.
‘All right,’ said her mentor, Professor Nigm, who stood next to her. His voice was as soft as the smoke from his silver pipe. ‘Clear your mind and focus. Quickly now, before Simi gets impatient.’
Aliya glanced down at the key, alight with the same colour as her palms.
