I agree. I’m really a heck of a lot less worried.
Did you catch what Oxadrenals said about seeing her. He’s going to visit the Eldest! I believe him when he says that it won’t be under his control when he comes back out.
He also used the word “province,” just like in that message. I wonder if there’s a connection. Remember how Kate got a sense of a female presence? We’ve gone off in other directions since, but who knows? — Flyss
“The province of a sister” means many things.
Sounds like Ox is the key to finding out more about this Ancient One. Problem is would Ox really want to disclose what she really is.
