Yes, and that is why you bear me now, and why I am not a prisoner of the dark lord or one of his minions, unlike some of my kin.

He has swords like mine?

A few lesser blades, with lesser kin, but yes, he does. They are imprisoned and unhappy. And he has many goblins, imps and other evil faery folk who do his bidding, many of their own choice. But know too that Woltan and Jona also have blades, as do others of this city, and there are others among the merpeople and the Kriek. And there are many spirits and fair folk here in faerie who will go to battle, if that is what is necessary to protect the world. When the time comes, I will help you to see them and seek their help, and help you to lead them.

Thank you.

Are all your questions now answered? If so, you should go to seek out Woltan. I think he is waiting for you, and you have much to do.

No.

You wish to speak of your mother and your uncle, do you?

I just want to know what happened.

I can give you tiny bits and pieces. I can only help you make sense of what you saw yourself. I was kept in a weapons ro

om while all that you saw went on, and you were but a boy. I have as many questions as you do, perhaps. I wonder if your uncle left because your mother spurned him, for example. Or perhaps it had nothing to do with that.

Do you think he became evil because she rejected him?

He was surely evil before, or I would have accepted him. When he put me in his palm I saw the evil in his present and his future. I saw a little bit of the same type of thing that Marga would see reading your palm. As far as what went on between your mother and your uncle, I think you must try to forget about that for now. The truth is sometimes elusive anyway. Try to prepare yourself for this battle. Strengthen your body, your blade skills and your magic. Only with a strong mind and body can you hope to help this city survive, and defeat the wizards who have enslaved your parents’ minds and bodies.

I know… I just wish I could talk to them.

Carolina smiled at me one last time. Go now to Woltan; he is waiting for you, and I think he has something to show you as well.

And then she was gone.
