Chapter 10:

The woman stared in horror at the mirror.

"It cannot be so" she whispered "no, this cannot be."

How could it have happened? She had cast the spell, done everything perfectly, except things had gone terribly wrong. Neither girl had come to her. Instead, one needed to be healed in her body, while the other in her mind. Both were greatly injured in their souls and hearts.

"No" she screamed "this cannot be. This is not right."

She threw her mirror against the wall and watched as it shattered.

Once again, she turned to stare at the open book. She read the words of the passage.

"When the daughters of the lost come, the world shall either be healed, or thrown into darkness."

She cursed "that meddling queen ruined all my plans" she settled down in her armchair "now I have to wait."

She had never been patient.
