“Marion was my mother’s name. She died defending Aelin Galathynius from her assassin. My mother bought Aelin time to run – to get away so she could one day return to save us all... I have no lands, no money, no army to offer Aelin Galathynius. But I will find her – and help her in whatever way I can. If only to keep one girl, just one, from ever enduring what I did. – Elide.”
