Summary
Go north.
Those had been Paragon’s words to me, on that fateful morning. I had nearly made my peace with the fate of leaving my Catalyst to trace his own path, unencumbered by the oppressive nudge of my cruel hand, steering the narrative of his life to my leisure. Reality, as usual, had imposed itself: I must once more meddle with his life again, plunging him into danger and hoping to pull him back, unscathed. If only I could persuade him to take back that role.
This time, on Aslevjal, it is my turn to die.
I had lost count of how many days had passed since the Fool had said those words to me. Though Chade’s grim promises of forbidding the Fool from sailing into his life’s purpose – a Convergence, he had called it – had soothed the worst of my raging fears, the words of the Fool’s final prophecy lurked untamed in the dark crevices of my mind. I needed only close my eyes to see their fiery brand on the back of my eyelids, flashing brighter the closer the day of our departure. In the throes of that fear, I knew only this: I musn't allow it to be.
