Ketha's Daughter

PrologueGeya sits before her silver mirror, outside of time and space. One sister appears before her. Her beautiful, moonlit eyes are troubled. I joined with my vessel and healed her husband, as you said to, Geya. You were right. He is not the son of Shiqaba. Geya sighs. Is he one of us? No. Then who is he? Dai! He is Dai, Geya. After everything he said to us about leaving the humans alone, he goes and becomes one! Geya is angry. He has betrayed us for the last time! Carry a message to Raven. She will deal with this. Moonlight shakes her lovely head in horror. You would give Dai over to Keth Dirane? Geya, you know what she will do to him. His end will not be a pleasant one. Even if he is a traitor, he is still our brother Amaranthine. He was Amaranthine, you mean. Now he is only a man. But when he is reborn he will truly be one of us, Moonlight. He will be a traitor no longer. But my vessel loves him. You would take her husband from her? Now Dai has became human he could die at any time, and Death would feel no remorse, so why should I? I wonder though... What, Moonlight? Why he decided to become human. Perhaps he has some plan to stop the Angellus. Perhaps we should not interfere. He is the one who has meddled. She was meant to marry the son of Shiqaba. Only Moera knows what difference it may make to this turn of the Gyre. The Numen might know. You are right, Moonlight. I will go to her.
