Nicolas said it as though he'd told her that the sky was blue today. Perenelle knew he wouldn't be changing his mind anytime soon, but they were only recently married. Since that was the case, maybe she had a chance to get out before it was too late, before Nicolas' project consumed both of them. The Philosopher's Stone was just a myth…

Funny how the Stone reminded her of her beating, crimson heart—she hoped that's why he wanted it.
