Apt that I'm listening to a welsh piece of music while writing this cause it has a lot of influence from welsh legend. The second book in this series this does develop the characters and bring them through some tribulations which developes them and leaves a lot of openings for the next book.
Both Gwenlliant and Tryffin find themselves in the otherworld, seperately, both in search of different things but finding that their paths have some parallels. It's interesting to see them develop as characters and I do want to see what happens next.

Epigraph
...so they carried the corpse to a distant place and they buried him deep in an unmarked grave, where the earth would not know him, where there were no priests or holy men to speak words over the bones of the dead, and the un... (show all)hallowed men were powerless to reject him.
- from The Nine Sorrowful Tales of the Misfortunes of Mochdreff
First words
When Gwenlliant first came to live in the witch's house, she was almost fourteen, a fey child, pale and composed, who said little and thought much, growing slowly into her power.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)"We have the magic and the wonder today...and that is quite enough to satisfy me."
