   Summary

   Mirror, mirror on the wall - could I please be anyone else?

   Kalim is tired. Ever since Jamil’s Overblot, he had been distancing himself from Jamil. Jamil is (was?) important to Kalim. But right now Kalim can’t look at Jamil without remembering the truth of his friend's bitterness at Kalim, at his situation in life. Jamil regrets his actions - deeply. But Kalim can’t forget the memory of the hate in Jamil’s eyes.

   Sometimes he wishes he was never born as Kalim Al Asim…

   One magical book later and Kalim gets what he wants: the opportunity to run away. He takes it, he just didn't expect Riddle and Azul with their own reasons to come along.

   Kalim isn't the only one who wants to escape, and when the reflection in the mirror is different - well why not take advantage?
