You are such a stupid little girl. What do you want? I screamed Me? She laughed. I want to be free. But if you live forever . . . She cocked her head to the side. You will just have to become something else instead. Become what? She smiled. You will not remember this, but I will, Adeline. I will remember what you cannot, but know you won’t become a druid. No, you will become something . . .much . . . Much . . . Better.
