The Magic Of The Talisman

'Umm, I'm still hung up on this whole grandmother thing!' Maelyn e4xclaimed in disbelief, 'I know how Kathy has said that those who are dragonborn have longer lives than others, but I'm still not understanding how my grandmother could have lived for close to five HUNDRED years!'

'Bear in mind that Kathy herself was born just twenty years after your grandmother.' Lani informed her, 'And, while I was only able to bless the Khadims with barely enough of my magic to enable them to live an extra hundred years, it gave them long enough to teach your grandmother how to survive until it became time to reclaim the throne. Unfortunately, my stabbing made me too weak at the time to open the vault and give her her own talisman so that she could learn to use her magic and live even longer.'
