Moirai
Epilogue

And that bombshell brings me backto where I am now, sitting in my room and writing up this tale. That was fivedays ago. Since then, I discovered that the entire elaborate plan of Loni – whowas still my childhood friend...just we had started being friends here – being theInventrix, the book being hidden fromme until it was time, and mother joining me in the outer-world began. It wasall because my life was too much at risk here. Indina could not reach me in theouter-world.

Itexplained so much; why Nerome and the map of Renenta and several other thingshad felt familiar, why Kasanda had been so shocked by my fear of magic – which shesaid was something Indina had included in the coma. I was angry at first, atbeing lied to, but Kasanda assured me that she didn’t know if telling me wouldtrigger the coma again. Indina’s aura, she said, worked in strange ways. Nowthat she was dead, it was safe to tell me.

It’staken me a few days to write this all down, and in those few days there was onemore life-changing shock that my mother had for me, and it left me with even more questions. I didn’t believeher when she first told me, because it sounded so ridiculous and itsimplications were horrifying. But she assured me that it was the truth.

Centurionwas my father.
