It sings to see itself again
It sings to hear the voice it's known
It sings to recognize the face
The situation several nights ago had confused and puzzled her. Now it was starting to worry her. The charm was a simple one, using her blood it should have done little more than caused a visual effect and flair, a suggestion of what might be.
You couldnāt use your blood to tell someone elseās futureābut sheād lied for a coin. Sheād lied for less.
What troubled her was how the spell was drawn to the darker young woman. How the ring swayed out towards her both inside the tent and after sheād left, drawn to her. Drawn to her with her blood used in the spell.
One body split and passed along the line
From the shoulder to the hip
I know these bones as being mine
And the curving of the lip
It should be impossible. She should have been the only one left of her line. Maternal line struck down in Elona. Paternal line struck down in Ascalon Settlement. She had killed Leiran, the last thread or possibility of anyone who shared her blood. Of anyone that it could have been drawn to.
And yet here it was reacting to this girl no more than twenty.
She wasnāt old enough to have been missed, someone secreted away and hidden from her.
It should have been impossible.
And my question to you is:
How did this come to pass?
How did this one life fall so far and fast?
Soā¦if it was impossible then she had to consider what was not possible. Had she been wrong? She had sworn she felt the life, the SOUL leave his body butā¦the only possible explanation was a dead man had fathered a child.
No, no there had to be something else, the Mists, a mistake, someone else sheād missedāwhatever it was it was clear she needed one thing to find out.
