Epilogue

_____________

Liam and I courted for a while, until I had all the dozen roses from him. We married and had two children--Girec Coten and Lucia Hope. Sam, Nimue, Assana, Ferrowin, and Dianthe were like family for us, but the children favored Jax and Urora more than anyone. I wished they could have known Lucia and my brother, as well.

I never stopped loving Liam, nor him me. When I outlived him, I still did not stop my love for him, and it would continue past my death. Once I was old and alone, I wrote a journal of all the things that happened to me in my life. I wrote of my battle against the Wraith, and many things after.

To the next Enchanta:

You have the power to become something terrible or great. It is your destiny, whether or not you like it. I hope this book will help you learn who you are and your purpose.

--Evelin Fendway, the Enchanta of the Forbidden Lands

I gave it to my son, and gave him the task of finding the new Enchanta. Because a new threat in Gornardy was rising, and I couldn't live long enough to protect the world . . .
