I believe you are somehow outside the pattern, Liadan. If this is so, it could give you great power, dangerous power. It could allow you to—change things. In these visions, it was not foretold that Sean’s birth would bring forth a second child. That sets you apart. I have believed, for a long time, that the Fair Folk guide our steps. That they work their great plans through us. But you are not in their scheme. Perhaps you hold some sort of key.”
