Theron still didn't understand the full story. He didn't know exactly what Sadie was trying to get at. He didn't even know the significance of his own last name.
But the moment Sadie said those words, he knew exactly what she had to be referring to. And at the same time, he was even more confused.
It had nothing to do with wind? Then why was Merchant Greycoat a Wind Mancer, then? What was he missing, exactly?
Why had she mentioned the Thistle Ancestor earlier and his ability to restrain fire? That seemed to have even less to do with his lineage and the name behind it.
The more things he learned about what his father had left behind, the more he realized that his last name had to carry some sort of real significance to it. But he also had no one to talk to or understand about all of this.
Just when he was hoping Sadie would have all the answers he wanted, she just shrugged.
