Summary
The room is silent. Neither wizard moves. A seagull calls in the Quay outside the tower.
Yussa takes a step forward and Caleb drops the spell, lurching forward to catch the glass figurine in its freefall.
The older wizard approaches the chalkboard and slows its spin, picking up a piece of chalk from where it had clattered to the floor. Carefully, he draws bold boxes around the parts of Caleb’s theorem where gravitational magic had played a key role.
When Yussa turns to face the other wizard, Caleb looks younger than ever, standing awkwardly, clutching the figurine to his chest.
“Who has been teaching you dunamancy, Master Widogast?”
Yussa catches Caleb using dunamancy and wants to meet Essek. But after being introduced, Yussa has some concerns about Caleb and Essek's relationship. Misunderstandings abound.

Summary
But no, she was here at Caleb’s shitty table, across from Essek, who’s boring holes into the rough-hewn wood with downcast eyes. The thing about Essek, she muses, was that he felt that he was so indebted to the Nein that he was willing to do almost anything to avoid being an inconvenience. Which might, she thinks, be sort of toxic.

Summary
This is a great honor, Essek reminds himself, trying not to recoil as fingers run through his hair, working through the tangles. A braid is made of three strands, symbolizing the inextricable bond between the soul, the den, and the Luxon. A recognition of an achievement by the drow who bears it. With each braid, the soul is bound ever closer to its den and to the Luxon.
It is a lesson Essek learned long ago, but one he is never permitted to forget.
[Or: the story of why the Shadowhand wears his hair cropped short.]
