Chapter 1628
Over time, I had annealed a lot of memories to my soul. Countless blessings, jobs, and information had attached to me, and I had even had my soul cut in half. It shouldn’t have been too surprising that during that time when my soul was ripped in two and I had two memories from two different places, then some of those memories wouldn’t be the clearest.
As she announced herself, I started to remember my trip to the Faerie Plains in more detail. I had been trying to avoid the Fey after realizing that they were hostile toward humans. We were hiding in a cave when a group appeared and attacked us. It was a group of escaped slaves, and they were being led to freedom by a Fey. That Fey was this woman. This confused me though because she was sympathetic to humans.
“Why are you here?” I asked blatantly. “I thought you wanted to help the human slaves?”
“Help?” She let out a laugh. “Help? You killed my sister and started a rebellion that killed thousands, and you want to speak of help?”
“I had nothing to do with them,” I answered warily.
“You encouraged them!” She pointed a finger hatefully. “The Waterfield Rebellion had just ended. Demetri just wanted to live on a farm for the rest of his life. He wanted to have a family and live in peace. Then, you came along, and you filled him with the idea of a Human King. You told him about the humans here, and a society where humans could live free. He began a new rebellion… one that lasted for two months. The Waterfield Rebellion was a drop in the bucket compared to what you did.”
