Chương 179: Chapter 179: Conversation With Zoe

Now, don't take my tone the wrong way. Part of me was happy to see Zoe Helios, the new Fate on our plane. She'd saved my coven from the Brotherhood with her fiery warning back before my life went to hell. And I liked her, I really did. More so when she was just an Oracle, mind you. This new Zoe was a pain in my ass, to be honest. But the fact she was here, in the Gate cavern, could mean answers I was dying for.

Or more riddles from Creator via the Helios girl's mouth. We'd see which I was about to endure.

Angry and suspicious? Who, me?

"It's good to see you here, Syd," Zoe said, as if she'd been here all along and hadn't just met me eight months ago. It was weird to remember she'd been watching me her whole life, had once been convinced by her grandmother and Liander Belaisle I was the bad guy. How much of my life did she really know about? I'd never had the chance to ask. And, frankly, I didn't care at the moment.
