The Honey Mummy (Folley & Mallory Adventure book 3)
“These are questions I wonder myself. In a world where such things are possible—we stood beside Hatshepsut herself!—how can we know where we are truly anchored and what has come to pass? I wonder of the rings, too. The archive where the Lady took her rest all these years is now empty; Mistral has not recovered her body or her rings. Will this come to pass again? What will happen should someone else discover her? Perhaps these are questions we can only leave to future minds.
One of the hardest things we do is walk forward, when we wish to only look back. I look back at the years I have lived, especially those before the loss of my arms, and wonder at the way I spent the time. Wonder at the people I loved and pushed away. Selfishly, sometimes, yes.
I hope you have no doubt that your mother loved you, even if she pushed you away, even if she, in the end, came to live in a place you cannot reach. People are driven, by motives they cannot always explain. Pushing someone away does not make a... situation any less painful, but it is, perhaps, how they endure.MoreLess
