Chapter 739: Chapter 739: Prophecy

Was it wrong I felt suddenly stunned, as though someone hit me on the head again?

"Is it time, then?" I met Iepa's eyes, stunned to think this could be over very soon. Which meant rescuing Quaid and the Zornovs would have to wait.

But every minute ticking by with them in Belaisle's hands could mean their death. Maybe not Trill and her brothers, not if he thought he needed them. But Quaid was a liability.

Yes, I worried about him. A lot. Sue me for still caring.

The quick shake of Iepa's head, her glance sideways at Trinol, unclenched the knot in my gut a fraction. "Not yet," she said. "There is still another to find before the prophecy can be complete."

Cool. Enough time to make the daring rescue so I could focus.

Ameline spun on the two maji, her anger flaring once again. Made me wonder how much influence Ahbi had over her and if it was my grandmother's temper showing.
