and it had broken her mind into dust
that she felt no compulsion even to question what she was being told. As a doctor and a lover of knowledge and science, that seemed strange, but at the same time... Isla knew it was true. She felt it, like she felt the dozens of connections to her Ascended kin, and to the shrines yet hidden in the Hollowed Grounds.
"Then we will not let them," she said simply, reverently, and nodded to the deity before her. "Whatever it takes, we will be free."
