Chapter 11 Summary

Since Charlie is so worried about her first task, it makes Ophelia nervous, too. She decides to do some last-minute research before leaving. Ophelia goes to the archive and reads a book about fairies’ predators, noting all the ones in Ohio. Silas Sequoia Snorer, an archivist and one of the Haven’s oldest fairies, interrupts her to ask about her first job. A former Granter, Silas is not impressed with the bicycle wish.

Ophelia goes to the Femoriae, a memorial for fairies who died while granting wishes. She thinks about Kasarah’s wish and wonders if it is worth dying for. Then, Ophelia decides it is what the magic wants.

Chapter 12 Summary

When Ophelia’s Founder, Paolo, brought her to the Haven, he hummed a tune to her. Ophelia still remembers that tune and hums it to calm herself. Charlie helps Ophelia get ready for her mission and whistles along. He jokes about Ophelia taking too much stuff and then gives her a pep talk. Charlie goes with her to the departure platforms on Grant Tower where Squint joins them, giving Ophelia a locator device resembling a tiny acorn. When activated, it sends out a distress call. Ophelia puts it in her satchel’s last empty pocket.
