'A year at Ravencrest is $20,000 silver coins, plus accident expenses', Selena said. 

'Accidents?', Florence asked. 

'Sometimes girls have minor cuts, and bruises. And some disappear into the ether', Selena answered. 

'I'm sure they re-appear', Arielle said. 

'Yes, through the Time Portals', Selene sighed. 

'Here's $50,000 silver coins for Florence, and Arielle. The other $10,000 covers all accidents', Edwin said. He signed off on the dotted line of the old parchment with a dragon's pen; Florence and Arielle did the same. 

'I'll sign too at the bottom. And Edward Lock, my Lawyer, and the Ravencrest Lawyer, shall examine it. He's here', Selena said. A middle-aged lawyer smiled. 'Good morning. I'm Edward Lock, a human in the magic World'. Satisfied that the legalities were formalized, he left the spacious room...and then ate his breakfast in the cafeteria.
