Give her this. No one else. No one else.

Tell her that you can open any door, if you have the key. And tell her to remember her promise to me to punish them all.

When she asks why, tell her I said that they would not let me bring the cloak she gave me, but I kept a piece of it. To remember that promise she made.

“What does it mean?”

“Who wrote it?”

“Sounds like bad news, especially on the solstice.”

“There are more, all saying the same thing, right near every major market in the city.”

Aelin pushed through the crowd, an eye on her weapons and purse lest a pickpocket get any bad ideas, and then— The message had been written in giant black letters, the reek coming off them sure enough that of Valg blood, as if someone with very, very sharp nails had ripped open one of the guards and used him as a paint bucket.

Aelin turned on her heel and ran. She hurtled through the bustling city streets and the slums, alley after alley, until she reached Chaol’s decrepit house and flung open the door, shouting for him.

The message on the wall had only been one sentence. Payment for a life debt.

One sentence just for Aelin Galathynius; one sentence that changed everything: WITCH KILLER— THE HUMAN IS STILL INSIDE HIM.

Fireheart, why do you cry?"

"Because I am lost. And I do not know the way."

"You have been very brave. You have been very brave, for so very long. But you must be brave a little while longer, my Fireheart. You must be brave a little while longer, and remember.."

Her mother placed a phantom hand over Aelins heart.

"It is the strength of this that matters. No matter where you are, no matter how far, this will lead you home. It is the strength of this that matters, Aelin.

The strength of this. You are my daughter. You were born of two mighty bloodlines. That strength flows through you. Lives in you."

"You do not yield."
