The Path of Destruction (Rune Breaker) (28 page)

But now ghosts of memories were coming back to her. All of those moments she half-remembered about the house and the loving voice...

They were real. She'd had a childhood. She had a mother.

Unable to stop reading now even if the book turned to acid, Taylin started to read aloud again the words of a mother she once believed to be a hallucination.

“
I find myself most endeared to how advanced she is even at this early stage of development. To discard the clinical terminology, she is quite clever in her way. My very clever girl. And so I will name her precisely that in the tongue of the Vishnari.”

Taylin read the next words before speaking them and had to force herself to finish. Her mother had named her. And she'd forgotten even that.

“
I will name her Pe'le.”

The end of the Rune Breaker's tale draws near as the gang of companions (plus Ru) spend their last days in Rivenport before setting sail to Nhan Raduul, the stronghold of the demon Immurai. With a force of champions of the Threefold Moon arrayed against them and dissension among themselves about their priorities, they'll need every resource at their disposal if they want to save Motsey and destroy Immurai once and for all.
