    Summary

    Lune wonders, briefly, whether she has noticed all of this before. She breathes in deep, and keeps herself calm, the way she breathed in deep and kept herself calm surrounded by the bodies of her fellows littered in pieces across the dark shores of the Continent.

    Lune's thoughts during Maelle's ending.

    Summary

    Theirs was a family of strong wills. It was frustrating, at times—Clea did recognize the irony. The draw of sculpture was in the satisfaction of molding clay in just exactly the way she knew it should be molded. Even painting couldn’t give her that same control. But outside of the workshop, no one listened to her, Alicia least of all. They listened to Verso, of course; he’d spent his painting lessons daydreaming and come out the other side with a honeyed tongue. Clea could mold clay, bend metal, paint any image she wished exactly as she wished it. But by the time she was old enough to realize talent and dedication weren’t enough to bend the world to her will as well, it was too late.

    -

    Three conversations Clea and Verso have about their sister.
