Amari is unable to find a new lead in her investigation. Instead, she looks through her book on weather magic to prepare for the next challenge and learns a spell called “Calamity of the Sky.”

Later, Amari meets Elsie, Lara, Jayden, and Arthur in Jayden’s secret spot, a secluded clearing in the Department of Creature Control. Amari recounts everything they know so far, and Arthur suggests they try to talk to Thomas Fletcher. Since he is dead, he might be contacted with the help of a medium like Julia.

After dinner, Amari finds Julia to ask for her help. Julia takes Amari and Elsie to the Department of the Dead and leads them to a visitation booth to contact Thomas Fletcher’s ghost. Once Fletcher appears, he explains that Dylan tricked him the previous summer, stealing Fletcher’s memory of the night he witnessed the first time freeze, so he is now unable to remember it. He tells Amari that Dylan used a spell called “Dreamcatcher” to steal his memory.

When Amari and Elsie get back to their room, Amari takes out her spell book to learn about “Dreamcatcher.” She finds a hidden section in the book that was written by Dylan, who invented many other foul magick spells.
