Volume 5 - Epilogue

Malzkael Espan Memoria felt forgotten.

She waited a month for Rain and Cassie to get back to her, all for nothing. What good was instant communication when they were just going to disappear on her? They hadn't even bothered to text except right before a portal down was opened.

Rain had an excuse; he was less tech-savvy than most people from Ayther, though he'd shown a lot of improvement just before he was sent on the titan-hunting expedition. But he wanted to help her find lost members of House Memoria, and surely they had to be kicking around somewhere.

In calmer moments she imagined he might have died, even though he was physically tougher than Cassiel and her combined, physicality meant little on a continent as mana-rich as Diurnus.
