Return to the harsh world she lived in or join Hale in paradise, blissfully unaware of the trouble the living world had. Those were her options.
And there was only one choice she could make.
But before Raquel made it, she wanted to ask Hale something. “Can I ask you a question?”
Is this about Hale’s Text? Hale asked in her mind.
“It is… Guess being a god makes you a mind reader.” Raquel mused.
It doesn’t really, but one can guess what you want to ask about it. Hale stated. You want to know if Lady Diana’s claims about it making a person a god are true.
“I do.” Raquel nodded her head.
Seemed like she was easy to read, but it didn’t matter. Anyone would’ve asked the same question if they had a chance to talk with Hale.
It’s a half-truth. Hale answered in her mind. The stones are a spell to eternal life. A power only the gods have. It won’t make you a god, just god-like.
“But if it’s just a spell for eternal life… why hide it?” Raquel asked.
