"What do you mean 'the cullahan are dead?'"
"Follow me, we are already too long in the open...someone might notice us."
Faelwyn stood there speechless.
"C'mon, follow me."
Once in the caves Ariel explained: "We are all here daughters of the cullahan. Our fathers and brothers have died centuries ago. For some reason or another they fell sick if they were not killed by Valdarians...."
"Valdarians? But the Valdarians were only recently formed."
"No, they weren't...that 's why they call it a secret society....they were formed centures ago."
"But, Ariel, there is one thing I don't understand....you say your fathers and brothers died centuries ago..."
"Mhm..." "But that means..." "Mhm"
"But that is impossible...nobody has ever regained immortality after is has been taken away." "I know....and I cannot explain it either."
