“Those are Father’s words, Inan. His decisions. Not yours. We are our own people. We make our own choices.” “But he’s right.” Inan’s voice cracks. “If we don’t stop magic, Orïsha will fall.” His eyes return to me, and I tighten my grip on my staff. Try it, I want to bark. I’m done running away. Amari redirects Inan’s line of vision, her delicate hands cupping the back of his head. “Father is not the future of Orïsha, brother. We are. We stand on the right side of this. You can stand there, too.”
