I shake my head. “I don’t know what to say.”
“You don’t have to say anything. Just enjoy your life, Autumn. Make it a good one,” Aisa says, her voice far gentler than I remember. “Like your mother, you will have a long while until the end of your thread comes due.”
My forehead creases, and I take a step back from her.
“Are you saying I’m immortal?” I ask, surprised.
She shakes her head. “Sadly, no. However, your deeds have not gone unrewarded. Now that things have been…righted, I guess you could say you have inherited longevity from your mother. Something you should always have had. It will be a very long time before death catches up to you.”
“Oh,” I say, my eyelashes fluttering as I fight to process fully what this means.
“But you should know that in time, however long that is, you will still face the scales to be judged.” Her expression again turns dark and she sighs. “The burden you carry now is a heavy one. I should know.”
She points inside my car and I bend down to have a look. Sitting on the passenger seat is the small, intricately carved wooden box.
“Regardless, I’d like to think things played out the way they were meant to,” she says with a lopsided sort of grin. “Maybe you could even call it fate.”
