Capítulo 189: SEVENTY: Things that are Gone Now
"Why do you have that?" Kel demanded.
"And don't try to say you had no idea what it was."
Adriell sighed, allowing the purple pearl to fall from her fingers and bounce softly against her dress as she returned to her chair.
"I knew what it was," she said quietly. "I knew."
"Don't tell me…" Kel scoffed. "You were thinking of using it?"
"Ah!" Adriell's eyes widened. "No! I didn't meant-"
"At the very least, you could be generous enough to give it to your father," Kel continued bitterly. "Or Dash, since the one you gave him has already been used on someone else."
"Kel!" Adriell commanded in an unfamiliarly assertive tone. "Stop."
For the first time in her life, Kel felt a chill from the girl's blue eyes as they gazed icily and unwaveringly into her own.
She looked like a true royal.
Not like the weaker half of a crown they shared, but a strong-willed, independent princess.

Currer
Currer Guys, I was definitely tearing up as I wrote this chapter.

This interaction between Kel and Adriell was the very last note I had in my phone from when I first began sketching the plot for this book over a year ago. For me, it’s a sort of turning point when Kel realizes that neither she nor her old friend are the same as they used to be.

It makes me emotional to think that Kel isn’t the naive, adorable and clumsy girl I imagined her to be in the beginning anymore, but I’m excited to see her become a strong heroine and take on all the adventures I have planned for her.
