One blink for yes. Two for no. Three for Are you all right? Four for I am here, I am with you. Five for This is real, you are awake.

Spirit that could not be broken. You do not yield. She would endure it again, if asked. She would do it. Every brutal hour and bit of agony. And it would hurt, and she would scream, but she'd face it. Survive against it. Arobynn had not broken her. Neither had Endovier. She would not allow this waste of existence to do so now. Her shaking eased, her body going still. Waiting. Maeve blinked at her. Just once. Aelin sucked in a breath-sharp and cool. She did not want it to be over. Any of it.

But Aelin, crowned and glowing, only said, "Walk with me." She gestured to the gates behind her. "All of you." This ay did not belong to her alone. Not at all. And when they all balked, Aelin walked forward. Took Yrene Westfall by the hand to guide her to the front. Then Manon Blackbeak. Elide Lochan. Lysandra. Evangeline. Nesryn Faliq. Borte and Hasar and Ansel of Briarcliff. All the women who had fought by her side, or from afar. Who had bled and sacrificed and never given up hope that this day might come. "Walk with me," Aelin said to them, the men and males falling into step behind. "My friends," The bells still ringing, Aelin nodded to the guards at the castle gates. They opened at last, and the roar from the gathered crowds was loud enough to rattle the stars."

"You know how quickly this can end Aelin," Maeve said. Aelin kept her eyes shut. "Tell me where you hid the wyrdkeys, swear the blood oath...The order doesn't matter, I suppose." Aelin opened her eyes. Lifted her bound hands before her. And gave Maeve an obscene gesture, as filthy and foul as she'd ever made.

"I need help, getting into the bath."  "Do you, now." His voice was near-guttural. Elide bit her lip, her breasts becoming heavy, tingling. "I might slip." His eyes drifted down her body, but he made no move. "A dangerous time, bath time."

Aelin looked at Chaol and Dorian and sobbed. Opened her arms to them, and wept as they held each other. "I love you both," she whispered. "And no matter what may happen, no matter how far we may be, that will never change."

"There are no Gods left to watch, I'm afraid. And there are no gods to help you now, Aelin Galathynius." Aelin smiled, and Goldryn burned brighter. "I am a God.

And then finally, Aelin sat upon her throne. It weighed on her, nestled against her bones, that new burden. No longer an assassin. No longer a rogue princess. And when Aelin lifted her head to survey the cheering crowd, when she smiled, Queen of Terrasen and the Faerie Queen of the West she burned bright as a star.”

Slowly, she turned to him. It was her face-or it would be in a few years. When she settled. But it wasn't the slightly older features that knocked the breath from him. It was the hand on her rounded belly. She stared toward him, hair still flowing. Behind her, four small figures emerged. Rowan fell to his knees. The tallest: a girl with golden hair and pine-green eyes, solemn-faced and as proud as her mother. The boy beside her, nearly her height, smiled at him, warm and bright, his Ashryver eyes near-glowing beneath his cap of silver hair. The boy next to him, silver-haired and green-eyed, might as well have been Rowan's twin. And the smallest girl, clinging to her mother's legs...A fine-boned, silver-haired child, little more than a babe, her blue eyes harking back to a lineage he did not know. Children. His children. Their children. With another mere weeks from being born. His family. The family he might have, the future he might have. The most beautiful thing he's ever seen.

"To whatever end?" she breathed. Rowan followed her, as he had his entire life, long before they had ever met, before their souls had sparked into existence. "To whatever end Fireheart."

And it was not darkness, but light-light, bright and pure as the sun on snow, that erupted from Asterin. Light , as Asterin made the yielding. As the Thirteen, their broken bodies scattered around the tower in a near-circle, made the Yielding as well. Light. They all burned with it. Radiated it. Light that flowed from their souls, their fierce hearts as they gave themselves over to that power. Became incandescent with it.

The male I fell in love with was you. It was you, who knew pain as I did, and whowalked me through it, back to the light. Maeve didn't understand that. That even if she could create this perfect world, it wouldn't be you with me. And I'd never trade that, trade this. Not for anything."

Once upon a time, in a land long since burned by ash, there lived a young princess who loved her kingdom...

“If you die, it will be my fault, and I can’t live with that.” He leaned down, bringing his lips so close they brushed against hers as he whispered, “Or without you.”

"If you're in trouble, I swear I will never stop until I get to you," He called softly. Sage could've pretended she was already gone, but she couldn't leave without answering. "I know"

We each play several roles in life-that doesn't make them all lies.
