Bab 120: Resemblance

Evanna was the first to arrive in the prince's garden; today, he was called out for an urgent matter in Direwood forest, again she was curious as to what would call away the Flori prince away from his royal duties. But although they were on friendly terms, Arawn would not spill such secrets to an outsider. Even though she was part elf, the princess was still from the Kingdom of Dunhurst and someone to have stolen from the Flori. She was not foolish enough to get so lost in the elven world to not understand that this time of peace would come to an end. 

Evanna knelt down to the flowers that were still shrivelled up, dying. This was the first time she had returned to them, and although Arawn did not want her trying it so soon, she could not resist trying again. The gifted circle he taught her was only training in increasing the endurance of one's gift. She wanted to see how far she had come in the three weeks, and so she hovered her hand above the light blue flowers.
