Silverlight Terrace the tell-tale heart

Who is she?

If only he knew the truth. Already he has called her a witch, taking a piece of her power for himself. Avicus does not believe as he does, has not seen what he has seen, so he cannot reiterate that again. He thinks of what Kukutux had said — and remembers the daughter too.

Her name for me is nephew. She thinks she knows me somehow. She says we are connected, but Nuak is afraid of that connection, more-so than anything. If Avicus were to believe he held a blood connection outside of the valley, what would that mean?

Nuak saw only death for those linked to him; father, mother, brother — he spelled their ruin, bewitched.
