“Jakob?” Scottan asked.
Jakob smiled and sent a probing of ahmaean toward him. When it reached Scottan, there was a reverberation, and a sense of connection. It was the same sort of connection that Jakob had experienced in his vision. Scottan’s eyes widened slightly, and he must’ve felt what Jakob did.
As he made his way to Scottan, he began to understand.
There were other damahne here, but not as he had hoped.
Could all of those afflicted by the madness have the same potential Jakob did?
Anda squeezed his hand and smiled at him. For the first time, Jakob wondered if perhaps they would succeed.
Epilogue
Brohmin met Salindra outside the temple. It was nearly noon, and the hot sun shone down, bringing a sweat to his back immediately. She was dressed in royal blue silks, and they flowed over her, casting a striking figure. He released the glamour that he’d been holding, and the markings along his arms faded. His connection to the ahmaean did not.
“Is it done?” Salindra asked.
Brohmin glanced over to the temple before nodding. “It’s done.”
“Why do we have to depart so quickly?”
“Because of what she told you.”
“Why is that important?”
Brohmin bit the inside of his lip. “She was right.”
“Right?”
“There’s something off about everything that we’ve discovered.”
“After what you’ve just done, you’re the one thinking that something is off?”
“What I did was necessary. We needed to take care of this here before we do anything else.”
“And now?” she asked.
“Now we need to travel to Salvat.”
“Why there?”
“Because that is where we will find the Conclave. I have some unfinished business with them.”
Salindra watched him with a determined set to her jaw. She glanced back to the temple, as Brohmin made a point of avoiding it. There was nothing for him there, not now, and not after what he had seen—and done.
With what was to come, he hoped the gods understood.
Book 7 of The Lost Prophecy: The Gift of Madness
As Raime prepares for another attack, those with the power to oppose him begin their preparations.
Finally fully healed, Roelle is tasked with helping an ex-soldier recover his skills, but nothing she tries is effective. Worse, she begins to suspect success in the coming war will require her to make an alliance with the Deshmahne, but not all the Magi warriors feel the same.
With the discovery that he is not the last of the damahne, Jakob works with those once afflicted by the madness, trying to awaken their power, knowing they will be the key to victory. He must succeed before Raime steals ahmaean from them as he once tried to take from the damahne. This time, there might be no stopping him. Succeeding requires Jakob to discover the origin of the groeliin for him to confront powerful groeliin unlike any he has ever faced.
The penultimate book in The Lost Prophecy series.
