“It’s all starting to blur, Tarik.  Which age are we living in now? I can’t keep it straight any more.  The Darkening, the Rekindling, the Reckoning, the Cataclysm, the Long Night – they’re all the same to me.  I can’t even remember which memories are truly mine and which are Kandol’s.  I don’t know if I’ll be able to finish the Tale of Ages, the Herald’s curse may swallow me first.”  Jerilyn of Colcester
