Chapter 102

Faolán looked at Grandpa Bento, waiting for a response. The old man took a deep breath before he started talking. 

"Alanna, we did everything we could." 

She looked from him to Faolán.

"Is Weylyn dead?" 

"I'm so sorry, babe. I had to chose and it was safer to save you. If I chose him, he may have died also. I would lose both of you."

"He is not dead." She said, shaking her head. "Morana or somebody else took him." 

"No. Alanna…"

"I know what I'm talking about!" 

"Babe, I held him in my arms. His little body. He was dead." 

Faolán was crying. 

"No, you don't understand. I had Weylyn in the other world. But someone took him. I came here because I followed the strings. I heard him crying."

Faolán looked at Grandpa Bento. He needed help. 

"Rest, child. We can talk about all this later."

"No, I don't need rest! I need my son!" Alanna got up from bed, even though Faolán tried to stop her.
