- I was right. So you are the cursed offspring of the zeogs. Azor's child...
- Yes, I am.
And he answered me, his face turned towards the east.
I bowed to him as was his due. To the zeog that he was. To the matchless and immeasurable being that he was.
- So please, grant the wish of the woman I am, who came to you through everything she was capable of doing, and more, to have her heart rebuilt.
He lowered his incomparable amber eyes to look at me. I could not read anything in them, as always.
- What exactly are you asking me?
I decided to answer clearly, without any tricks.
- I am asking you to save the magical world.
He imposed a silence heavy with mystery, so heavy that I felt him weighing on me with all his strength. The end of my words also seemed to worry him, did he think he should put importance on them or simply forget.
But maybe I was completely wrong. And he gave me his answer.
- So be it, I will grant your wish.
